Pros to coming to this particular hotel are following. Their continental breakfast has both ate cooked to order line which provides any a combination including omelets with all of the goodies with bacon sausage and potatoes available at that station. Another line or station offers scrambled eggs bacon sausage potatoes with your choice of fresh fruit as well as yogurts they have all of the normal Danish is muffins and bagels beverages are everything you could think up from soda to fresh juice true coffee with multiple creamers. And as everyone knows breakfast nowadays can be quiet as expensive as almost dinner. Then before you go to dinner I suggest making a reservation around 7:45 or 8 and enjoy the cocktail and beer provided every evening between 5:30 and 7:30, which we're bottomless and had great bartending staff even though it's a limited mixed drink selection but they have four different beers on tap and a big screen TV for Sunday Night Football or Monday Night Football. We had a corner suite and it was quite roomie. It comes with a microwave refrigerator wet bar with its own dining table living room couch and TV with a closing door to the main bedroom the bathroom has a sink and toilet with shower but outside of the bathroom is another small wet bar for doing your hair and makeup with a plug for blow dryer so every man doesn't have to have his wife in the bathroom doing makeup while you're trying to get rid of yourself. The bed was very comfortable the windows open allowing you to get fresh air in but they don't open enough of course that would harm a child or the child would even be able to get or reach the open window as it is a Louver halfway up the window but it was nice to enjoy the ocean breeze and what is normally a stuffy Hotel. My one and only downfall and negative comment that all make and I'm sure you'll read it on me any other reviews is the cost the parking they offer no other parking then valet which is $50 a day. So if you're flying into San Diego and will be ubering around this hotel is great for you in fact it is right at the train stop which takes you everywhere from the baseball field to the convention center to Gaslamp and Beyond it actually can take you all the way to the Border if you choose at Tijuana for $6 a day for Endless and unlimited transfers and public transportation. Hopefully you choose this hotel as I'm sure I will and if you go green and choose not to have your room cleaned daily you get an additional $5 which can be used at any of the eateries we chose to get calamari at New York Pizza but you can also exchanged it for 1,000 Hilton points. So far three days day we got $15 to do it as we chose
