Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Solana Beach-Del Mar by IHG

Bad: The lobby, front and entrance,they are all under construction and I was never informed about this. The internet was very erratic and cuts off every 5 min. It is useless. Good: Staff are helpful and polite, the room was clean

Poorly-managed mess of a hotel. Property is dirty, plumbing doesn’t work, rooms smell like cigarette smoke, and stairwells are blocked in a way that is both inconvenient and presumably unsafe.

We stayed here for 2 nights and it was amazing! They are remodeling the property so there weren’t ice machines and parking was messy, but they did waive the parking fees to compensate for it. The free breakfast was surprisingly decent. Quick walk to the beach, good food around within walking distance. Quiet slow paced area. It was exactly the get away we were looking for without breaking the bank :)

The room is very clean and comfortable. Breakfast is a big plus. The WI-FI was unfortunately not working during our stay.

No internet for me to work it was off and “they had to have a new router “. Nondisclosure on the major construction. I’m a night nurse worked all night came back to sleep zero sleep then had to run my private business form my phone. Barely any of my bars weee able since it’s a cement building my computer wouldn’t work since no internet. My eyes are swollen from having to use my phone and have a migraine. From lack of sleep. Just awful

Fine

Nice valet parking and wine list. Waiter was very helpful.

Property is going through renovation but staff made all the effort possible to maintain good quality. Hotel also waved parking fee because of the garage renovations which was appreciated. Remodeled rooms are very nice. Water pressure in showers is to low.
