Great hotel for Marines graduation.
Our stay at the Holiday Inn Express was for a Marines graduation and the hotel was fantastic for this. Shuttle to/from airport and Shuttle to/from Marines base everyday meant we didn’t have to worry and making arrangements. Walking distance to San Diego old town (if you don’t want to take their shuttle) made getting there and back easy.

Booked room with 2 beds but ended up with 1 bed
Booked and paid for a room with 2 queen beds, front desk checked us into a room with a single queen bed at first. After commuting was told there were no rooms available with 2 queen beds, ended up staying in a room with one king bed.

All that you look for in a hotel and top service
This hotel is as good as it gets. They have great service across the board from the front desk to the shuttle people. All are friendly and actively helpful. On top of this they are gifted with a great location for the pier from which our cruise left. One of the most problem free hotels we'd ever been at in this mix of hotel and pier. They also shuttle you to local area restaurants that are great. And we were able to keep our vehicle there for the time we were on our cruise until we got back. Perfect.

Unexpectedly great service!
We were so very pleasantly surprised at the service we received. Elia, the driver who picked us up at the airport, offered to take us to dinner and pick us up, bc there was no restaurant close by. We felt this was above & beyond normal service. They couldn’t have been nicer!

Great stay in San Diego
Lovely hotel, very friendly staff, bed super comfortable. Right next to highway but good soundproofing so did not affect my sleep. Free shuttle to Old Town and to airport—both timely and easy to schedule. I loved my stay here !!

The hotel is nice and the staff were all friendly and helpful. There was plenty of parking. Our room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was really good. Our only complaint was the noise above us and in the hallway.

I woke up because I could not breathe easily due to the smell of smoke at 3 am. Even though the room was a non-smoking area, the whole hallway, and the room were full of cigarette-smoking smell. Other than that the room itself was clean amenity were good. Their complimentary breakfast was also great.
