Guests say
Guests found the hotel's location to be excellent, making it ideal for planned activities and nearby necessities. The service staff received positive remarks for their friendliness and quick response. However, guests voiced several concerns, particularly related to cleanliness, as some reported dirty rooms with unwashed bedding. Noise disturbances were also noted, especially on the first floor. Additionally, the hotel struggled with accessibility for those with mobility impairments, and the lack of breakfast options was highlighted as a downside.

Ronald, Mar 2015
Pros (+) Just returned from a week long vacation in San Diego. A friend suggested we stay at the Marina Gateway Hotel. Best tip yet...the staff was friendly, the rooms were very clean, and all of the amenities were in good working order. Only drawback was no continental breakfast in the morning, but there was a nice restaurant across the parking lot. I would suggest this hotel to anyone:)
