We stayed here back in Sept. 2011 during the power outage. We stayed for 7 nights and couldn't have been happier. Despite being without power for about 12 hours, the experience was great. The staff went out of their way to make sure everyone was as comfortable as possible. People were given light sticks in an attempt to provide some... More

My husband and I spent 2 nights here right before the New Year. We didn't want to stay in downtown because we didn't want to pay all the parking fees at the hotels. Residence Inn San Diego is so convenient to all the attractions. It's located right by the freeway but you don't hear any freeway noise. It's only 10... More

Booked this hotel with our Marriot points as we wanted a weekend trip to San Diego. The hotel is set up like an apartment complex just off the freeway. Our stay was very pleasant and rooms well maintained. They are a bit dated, but all the essentials were there and we had plenty of room for two adults and two... More

Rooms were nice and clean with dishes, a full-sized fridge, stove and microwave, staff was helpful with recommendations for restaurants. The only reason we're not giving this hotel five stars is that there was construction until late (11 pm) at night behind the hotel and there is also a garbage truck depot behind building number 17 and the trucks start...

We spent just one night here, using a free night that I had earned during the summer. The hotel is close and convenient to downtown and port. This particular Residence Inn is set up as a condensed apartment complex, with several two-story buildings with a limited number of rooms in each building, We passed a jacuzzi/spa between our room and...

I am a lazy person so I wouldn't write any review unless I am extremely impressed (either positively or negatively). In this case, Residence Inn exceeded my expectation in any way. 1. Excellent location: right by highway and just a short drive to Sea World, Old Town, Balboa Park, Zoo, etc. 2. Spacious room with full kitchen and dining area:... More

The rooms were everything they were advertised to be...the two bedroom, two bath suite was perfect. I am the mother in law so I had my own loft with bath. The fireplace was beautiful on the cold rainy evenings and the breakfast was terrific! The location was good, parking free, staff wonderful, and all the extra's in the room were... More

The title says it all. It's right off the freeway, close to a gas station, and Food 4 Less if you would rather just stay in and cook your own meals. It's located about 10 to 15 minutes from the zoo, Old Town, HillCrest area. If you're looking for a "scenic" hotel you'd probably want to book elsewhere and pay... More

I recently stayed at this hotel with my mom, and it was a wonderful experience. The hotel staff was very helpful in getting you checked in and out quickly and also provided directions. The room we had was the studio with the kitchen. We had the studio with the queen size bed, and if more space is needed, there is... More
