We stayed here for only one night since we didn't want to pay for the Hilton when we flew in so late. We got it for $70/night on Priceline. The parking deck is very poorly designed. You'll see all the scratches on the walls from cars hitting them. If you have a car bigger than a compact, don't bother coming... more

We stayed here 5 nights over Thanksgiving weekend in 2 rooms and really enjoyed it. The POSITIVES were much cheaper price than other hotels closer to the convention center or gaslamp (we paid about $116), free shuttle from airport, free breakfast, comfortable beds, nice balcony, clean rooms / lobby, happy hour Mon - Thurs 5-6:30 with complimentary soda, beer or... more

I had a very positive experience at this hotel. While other hotels in the area charge more for fewer amenities, at a reasonable price we got for free: a nice continental breakfast, a balcony, a refrigerator, an airport shuttle, and internet access. The desk staff was very friendly and helpful, and they didn't charge us the $20 per night for... more

I would not recommend this property. We (a family of 4--children aged 11 and 6), stayed during Thanksgiving weekend. Upon arrival we were greeted by friendly hotel employees and were happy to know that our room was ready prior to the 3:00 check in time. However, that was the best part of our stay. The bathrooms are extremely small and... more

Reviews of this hotel under previous management should be ignored. Now a Holiday Inn Express, the property has been refurbished and upgraded to the standards of Holiday Inn. The rooms were clean and well appointed, the beds very comfortable. I was quite pleased to find my choice of pillows on the bed - both soft and firm. As in most... more

Stayed in Holiday Inn Express on 7th Avenue for one week late October while on a Golf Trip to San Diego. Used the Shuttle to transport us from the Airport (free). Exterior of hotel not that impressive, however, that apart, my group did not have one complaint with the hotel. Reception staff excellent and friendly. Bedrooms excellent, all of ours... more

I was in San Diego for a convention in October 2007. When the taxi pulled up to the hotel, I was definitely unimpressed. It looked like a complete dive. I was able to check in with no problems. The elevators are very old and therefore very slow. Even just to go 3 floors. When I reached my floor, I noticed... more

After leaving Tucson and staying the night in a regular "Holiday Inn" in Phoenix (the worst ever,) I was weary about downgrading to the Holiday Inn Express brand. I was surprised by the amazing service and polite staff at this hotel. From the moment my family arrived, we were greeted, treated with respect and afforded every amenity available without hesitation.... more

Excellent hotel with nice pool within easy walk of all downtown facilities. Strongly recommended. This is the only HI Express we've been to where chocolates were provided in the room and letters welcoming you were hand written by the boss. Strongly recommended. more
