this place was exactly like the pictures. we were attending a conference at the convention center and found the location perfect, it was a simple 10min uber into town and the zoo. downside is that there are burned downed houses on the block in a lackluster neighborhood that my teammates felt less confidence to wonder around at night. all in all though,if there is another conference in san diego we will still try our best to stay here again. everything else about the place met the needs and expectations of my team.
