Good place for a family holiday.
My daughter and I stayed in a suite here and were very happy.
The rooms are very large. The suite has two large bedrooms, a bathroom (adjoining both bedrooms) a kitchen, a dining room, and a large lounge room. The kitchen was well-equipped. There was no washing machine, but I believe there was a guest laundry.
The rooms are fairly quiet at night time. The airport is so close to San Diego that you can always hear the planes from pretty much anywhere in the city, and this is no exception. As long as you're not planning on sleeping in, you'll probably be fine with it.
The neighbourhood is fine. Extremely close to Balboa Park; the zoo and museums are all an easy walk away. There aren't many great restaurants in the area, but the Italian district or Gaslamp district are a 5 minute Uber ride away. There's a 24 hour 7-11 right across the road. The area was fairly safe but there were a few drunks around at night.
Some reviews have mentioned the fact that this place tries to get you to attend one of their timeshare presentations. Yes, it's true. But, they take 'no' for an answer which is what you want. It's a minor inconvenience.
If I were staying in San Diego again as a solo traveller I might choose somewhere a bit more upmarket but for a family stay this place was perfect.
