“Nice location, quiet. Less than a mile from highway exit, but not too close. Furnishings seemed somewhat old amd moldy, especially the carpets and curtains were really drab. But free breakfast was really good, lots of choices. Free parking. Friendly staff. Restaurant on premises, another Chili's nearby.”

• Room pleasant (other than bath) and clean. Very quiet! Free Breakfast! Friendly personnel
• High Speed Internet not working, Visible mold in shower. Faucets very loose on sink. Furniture stained

“A late check in did not present a problem. Desk personnel were attentative and friendly. Overall the hotel is very impressive for a 2.5 star. It was clean and quiet. Bottled water for two awaited in the room. Other than a problem with the included high speed internet, staining on the furniture upholstery, some visible mold in the shower and loose fixtures on the sink our room was clean, enjoyable and homey. Actually better than some 3 and 4 stars I have recently stayed in. A great bonus is the buffet breakfast in the lobby. A complete all you can eat meal with all of the extras, kept fresh and hot. Check out was a breeze. An easy 8 out of 10 points in my book.”

• Nice rooms, free wireless internet
• Expensive restaurant but a Chili's close by

“The Prime Hotel will soon become a Country Inn and Suites. Under the current ownership, it is a nice hotel with amenities standard for its star rating. The beds were comfortable but not exceptional. We didn't have maintenance issues or use room service, so our contact with the employees was minimal. The only minor annoyance was that the maid did not leave additional soap and shampoo the second day even though we tipped well.”

• Nice Hotel - Free Internet
• Didn't honor Non-Smoking request 1st night. Had to move rooms.

“This is a nice hotel in a business district. It was 15 minutes from Sea World and 10 minutes from the beach. Overall it was a nice hotel in a decent central location. Keep in mind it is primarily a business hotel.”

• The room was a great size for the price.
• The hotel was in a business district but it is geared towards the business traveler.

“For what we paid for we got a lot. The staff was extra helpful. When we asked for a good restaurant they not only gave recommendations they printed off directions to make sure we knew how to get there. The hotel was about 10 minutes away from the beaches and downtown San Diego. I will definitely stay at the Prime hotel if it's available on our next trip.”

“Overall a really nice spot. I don't think the young gals at the front desk made it horrible (I was really needing help to access messages and they were less than kind or helpful to me). Nice destination and restaurant.”

• Location is near freeway and near Hi Tech business center of town

“Prime hotel has all the features I look for in a hotel. Parking is free in ample availability around the hotel, there is a restaurant, bar, pool and spa on the property. The rooms are clean and roomy with stylish modular furniture. The work station includes a very nice Herman Miller chair and free wireless internet. A daily paper is delivered, and bottled water is supplied. Prime is located just blocks away from the freeway, and there are many shopping centers and restaurants within a 3 mile radius. Overall I rate Prime a great hotel for business travelers.”

• Easily accessible from the freeway, clean, corporate location, and located right next to a popular restaurant (Chili's) for further convenience.

“The hotel staff was friendly while the premises were well groomed and clean. The rooms were fairly large and had a well laid-out desk area for work or reading. The hot water in the shower came on fast. A framed picture in the center elevator was hanging loosely and upside down due to a broken nail, but it appeared to have been fixed by the next morning. Nevertheless, a solid 3-star hotel.”

• The staff was pleasant & helpful. The lobby was beautiful.
• The carpet in our room was gross. The showerhead had a leaking crack.

“This hotel was impressive in the main areas as I would expect for a three star. I was not as impressed with the rooms appearance. The room was roomy and comfortable with conveniences for the business traveler; nice office chair at table, dinning chair and also a comfortable sitting chair. It was hard to look past the yucky carpet with discolorations.”

“Just had a few minor problems like the toilet does not flush and the counter sink and tub does not drain. They should make sure that before someone checks in that everything should be in order, but the maintenance took care of it right away.”

“I had stayed at this hotel before prior to it changing to Prime Hotel in May of this year. The hotel is nice and clean. We checked in late due to being out during the day but I called in the morning to inform the front desk and confirm. Upon arriving, there was a challenge getting one of our rooms as they were supposedly full and didn't have our request. Eventually, we got to our room. The room was fine. We went to the breakfast buffet as we had done last year. The food this time was only average and we had to wait for them to find the chef to cook the omelettes and waffles.”

“Room TV could not access room account on a daily basis. Local phone charges of $.75 plus tax is excessive. Restaurant was not open for dinner on Friday and Saturday evenings. If given the opportunity to stay there again, would I? Yes, but I wont use their phone for local calls. Better to use my out of area cell phone. Dial up internet access was bad. Staff was great at desk and lounge.”

“Everything was beyond what I expected. The staff was not very nice at all. We stayed for two nights and each day at the front desk were young people who sat there and talked to each other and if you asked a question they felt bothered by you. They were very rude. But the hotel and the rooms were beautiful I was expecting a really run down hotel for the price I paid but this was a four star hotel with a limo and all.”

“My two night stay at Prime Hotels and Resorts on Lusk Road in San Diego was excellent. The suite rooms were absolutely excellent and the hotel staff was very helpful and accommodating. It was one of the best price bargains that I have ever experienced. I also had the breakfast buffet one morning and it was also excellent. I am a very pleased customer.”
