MARINA INN AND SUITES-AIRPORT-GASLAMP-ZOO, San Diego – Your ideal downtown stay

I stayed at this hotel for a night in transit. The room was very clean and tidy, even though it faced a wall and a construction site, and the air conditioner had been unplugged. The location was the only good thing about my stay, being close to the marina and within walking distance to Little Italy. However, it was a bit noisy due to Pacific Hwy and airplane traffic overhead.

The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a pleasant smell, but the tight and noisy location due to traffic and train noise might be bothersome. The service is a mix of unprofessionalism and exceptional friendliness. The location is both excellent and noisy, with proximity to Little Italy and a harbor view. Dining options vary from fraudulent to satisfactory, and the facilities are decent with thin crispy fries available.

The hotel's location is superb, close to many dining choices, the harbor, and a nice park across the street. The rooms, though not as advertised, were in a back room and lacked a coffee maker. The service, led by the always accommodating Victor, was friendly and excellent. The noise from Pacific Hwy and airplane traffic overhead could be a downside.

The hotel gives you a motel vibe at a higher price but with some clean rooms and a strong perfumey clean smell rather than a standard fresh one. The service is helpful and accommodating, though a bit short-staffed. The location is convenient, close to the sea and airport, perfect for exploring the waterfront and downtown areas. The dining experience can be hit or miss, with limited options.

The hotel's location was ideal for us as it is very close to both the airport and downtown. The rooms, although small, provided a nice view of the bay. The service ranged from friendly to firm, with a mix of competence at various levels. While the location was convenient, some noise from trains and construction affected our stay.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, while comfortable and clean with good air-conditioning, were in poor condition with a strange door when I arrived. The free parking was convenient, but the loud construction development next to Little Italy was quite bothersome.

The hotel's location was the main reason I chose it, being very good with walking distance to the waterfront and downtown area, right across the harbor and close to Little Italy. The rooms, while reasonably sized and comfortable, lacked chairs, and the check-in process required waiting in the car until 3 pm despite being told to return at 1 pm.

When we arrived, the hotel was in a locked position which was a bit confusing, but upon entering, I found the rooms to be a little out of date. They are old and feel that way, but the service was helpful when I had to ask for things. The location was good, albeit a little noisy as expected in San Diego, and the hotel is right on a busy highway corner. The dining experience, unfortunately, was a bit of a fraud with limited options. However, the hotel immediately had someone come over to fix the parking situation, making it more manageable overall.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were spacious and had more table space than just the two mini bedside tables, which was very convenient. The cleanliness was top-notch, and the hotel staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The only downside was that the bathroom shower was a bit dirty. The hotel was generally quiet, although some train noise could be heard, which I sort of liked.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was spacious but the bathroom was old and dirty. On the bright side, the larger suite with kid bunks was a nice touch. However, the noise from traffic and trains was a bit bothersome. The hotel's proximity to the car wash across the street was convenient.
