I enjoyed my stay at the DoubleTree. Make sure you do not get a room that faces the freeway. It is very noisy. The "ocean view" rooms were quiet. The staff was friendly in changing my room. It is centrally located to get to the Gaslamp District, Zoo, and Balboa Park. I did drive to all of these locations but they are walkable. The have free Tesla charging, which is a big plus. Too bad ICE cars were parked in 2 of the spots, which I did report to the front desk. The parking lot ramps are very narrow. That was little scary. I did see a few unhoused people on the street surrounding the hotel, but it wasn't a problem. I will most likely stay here again.

Overall I enjoyed my stay but a few issues First the bad. The WiFi is on an older WiFi protocol. I couldn’t connect with my Apple devices and it was very slow connecting with my android. It was basically unusable. The weekend seems to draw a lot of partiers. Fr-Sat night were extremely loud. The lobby is very nice but not a very big lounge area. The good. The pool area is nice with a jacuzzi. The room had a great balcony with a view of San Diego. Very spacious and comfortable. The location is great. Right off the interstate and 2 blocks to a very vibrant Little Italy with tons of dining and entertainment. Would be better with a few tweaks. Like I said this area is popular for people wanting to party so might be tricky to find a quiet hotel in this part of town. They did tell me September and October are slower months for SD.

This hotel was located in a great area. The only issues were the very slow elevators and the parking. The parking was extremely convenient but the entrances and exits were so narrow, I dont know how a large SUV or truck could fit into it without hitting the wall. Overall, I would give it a 5, just minus one for the elevators and parking. I definitely would and plan to stay here again.

Outdated rooms, great staff service
Hotel rooms were pretty outdated and dingy feeling. The noise was pretty bad, maybe the walls were really thin? The parking garage was awful. Very narrow ramps, I was terrified of scraping my rental suv car. Get a small rental car if you’re parking here. It’s also expensive to park $40/night) However, the outstanding level of service made up for all that. I forgot my toothbrush and it was very easy and quick to get assistance. I unexpectedly got sick and needed mate checkout and they were gracious to give me noon late checkout.

Worst hotel and staff
The stay was horrible. The first room they gave me smelled like pee and there were stains on bedding. So when I asked if I could be moved the front desk guy Oscar or Cesar gave me attitude didn’t really want to give me another room. Finally, another person came over gave me another room. Then they told me that parking was very limited even though I had paid for the parking I had gotten a ticket and my other business partner got towed because they told us to park over in a certain section, when I asked for corporate number, they wanted to give it to me one of the guys corporate number. Imnever staying at this hotel and on top of it they didn’t wanna accommodate me in anyway.
