We stayed here while visiting with friends and their new baby. It was a surprisingly lovely hotel. We had a nice room, beautiful view, a nice meal in the hotel and room service was great. It was also quiet which is nice because there were families with kids. We had very easy access to the highways and downtown San Diego. Great weekend getaway spot -- they have a lovely pool and outdoor firepits!

We stayed at this Marriott from June 14th-16th. The room was small and was nothing special considering the price. The only benefit was that the location was good since we had plans to visit the Del Mar Fair on Sunday. We booked in advance on the Marriott website with a promotional offer and the bill was incorrect at check-out. It was fixed, but it was still an inconvenience. The next time I visit San Diego I will be staying at another property.

Why do we stay at a hotel... mostly to sleep. I have to say, this was one of the most comfortable beds I have slept on. It rates right up there with Westin's Heavenly bed.

Room was nice and clean. Furnishings looked almost brand new. Front desk staff was pleasant and friendly. Everyone was professional but not snobby.

One of the better hotels in greater San Diego.

I recently stayed for just one night at this property with my three small boys. We were spending a week in Carlsbad in a condo but we couldn't check into our condo until the next night, so we spent one night here before moving on. I got a little turned around on the way there and called for directions. The girl who answered the phone at their front desk was RUDE and unhelpful. I was fortunate to also have the same girl check us in... again, rude and looked at my offspring like they were contagious. I did let them totally raid her candy jar after that. I was shocked at what they charge for parking ($16 & $22 for valet), I've stayed in nice resorts and I felt that they were trying to be a four star hotel but missed the mark, however they were charging four star prices. The pool area was nice and truly the highlight of the stay. The valet gave us great directions to the town center for dinner which was great as well. We ordered room service in the morning and the food was sub par but the service was great. I wouldn't reccomend this hotel if you are traveling with your kids. The hotel is in a weird place, somewhat industrial. There are way too many great places around to waste your time or money on this Marriott in Del Mar.
