Nice place. Very thin walls and noisy in the room.

The hotel and grounds were very nice. Good location - close to mission beach. Rooms are quite small. We had the Lanai room which made it much nicer. Our one complaint is that the walls are VERY thin. Could always hear the people next to us and the people above walking (sounded like stomping around) all night and early morning.
