"Like stepping back in time to a San Diego from long long ago."

8.0

loved the historic vibe. Black and white framed prints of "old" San Diego line the halls. Instead of room numbers, all the rooms are named after famous San Diego neighborhoods. I stayed in the Del Coronado! My room was spacious,. clean and comfortable. Very "old school" hotel vibe. Could picture Dashiel Hammett staying here on his way back from a bender in Tijuana.

The coffee. Taster's Choice? Seriously? Ha ha there's a great coffee roaster right now the street,. I'm sure they'd LOVE for you to feature their coffee in your lobby for guests!

"Perfect for what we needed it for, we would stay again."

Felt safe, it’s historic and unique, prime location, affordable.

Old smell in rooms, creaky, needs minor touch ups, but that is a given because it’s literally old.

"FULLFILLING and COMFORTABLE"

9.0

The environment, the helpfulness, and the professionalism of the staff

The size of the room. I'm 6"6' and a little more area space would have been nice but this will not prevent me from staying again and again at this Hotel.

Bed is comfortable and parking is very convenient.

It is an old room, the smell is not great and some parts of the bathroom have seen better times. Bathroom is tiny and not very comfortable. The light in the bathroom turns off every 2 minutes which is very very inconvenient if you’re trying to shower at night, even dangerous.
