For starters I will tell you that this place is armed up like the King of England's castle. Upon arriving at 2:00 am we had to wait for the desk clerk to wake up to buzz the door open for us. Check-in was simple considering we were tired. Finding the elevator to go up was difficult at first but once you get used to the whole system of scanning your room key to go up it seems like a good and safe idea. As we entered unit #402, the room seemed a bit dated. The bed's weren't the best but we got used to them. The view and living area were amazing, looking right at Pacific Beach and Crystal Pier. The kitchen has utensils to make a full meal but make sure you stop at Ralph's just down the street for groceries, they even give you a Ralph's rewards card right on the chain of our room keys. There are no restaurants on site, but many within walking distance. The service is incredible. We went to the front desk to ask for windex to clean our cloudy glass table. Instead of giving it to us they sent someone up to clean it for us in less than 5 minutes. The parking out front and underground is safe and locked up by a gate that your room key opens. You are also given a designated parking spot so there are no issues finding a spot. The pool is a short walk, that being locked up aswell. It is in a great location, surrounded by palm trees and the water temperature is perfect. To top it off, this hotel/apartment/condo has a great value.
