Great hotel by the Coronado Hotel..

Pros: Location. Near the beach and Coronado Hotel. Swapped us to an accessible room due to no lift in the premises, which was essential to us.

Cons: Probably a bit dated and tired, but it has been there a long time. Hot water could be hotter. Just minor observations.

Pros: Excellent location in the heart of Coronado - easy walking to the beach, local shops & restaurants. Good restaurant on site, very popular. A very good base to explore from.

Good place to be in walking distance of most of Coronado without the colossal expense of the Big Hotel. Plus much more p

Pros: Position was great, clean, comfy, an antidote to characterless big name hotels. Friendly and helpful staff, free coffee, and right next to a donut shop! A myriad restaurants and shops within a very short walk, beach just a street away.

Cons: Nothing not to like. The view wasn’t marvellous that’s all, but that’s just our room.

Enea 9/10

Italy 🇮🇹

Pros: Very good hotel, excellent price and location for Coronado Island. Beautiful room, big and clean, very big closet space, Small but very stylish nice bathroom. Coffee and fresh water always available in the lobby. Free parking available 5 min walk from the hotel. Very close to the beach and to Hotel Del Coronado. Perfect if you want to relax and enjoy Coronado and its beautiful beach, not the best option if you plan to spend most of your time in downtown San Diego or La Jolla.
