Hotel stay was an overall good experience. However , area around the Hotel itself was sketchy with a lot of mentally ill people roaming the streets. Also, I wish the room came with an iron and more options on TV. Super friendly staff though, which made the stay great !

The hotel was wonderful with a gym and outdoor pool. Conveniently located in downtown San Diego with easy access to everything! The room was spacious and very clean and the dining options were great, on the expensive side though like the rest of San Diego.

Unfortunate event.

I made a decision to stay here over another hotel and I wish I hadn’t. Yes, it is clean. Bar staff and front desk were very kind. The valet parking is run separate of the hotel. It took a while to get our car when we called down. Close to thirty minutes. The worst part was waking up at 6:30 am to blinding sunshine in our room. I thought we had slept through checkout time and it was high noon. We had closed all of the sunshades and blinds before we went to bed hoping to sleep in the next morning as we were on a little vacation for our anniversary. I’m also assuming our room was facing the sun more in the morning. We were so disappointed. I wish we had been warned. We also had a balcony and asked if we could get a chair to sit outside since we noticed that other rooms had chairs. They said they would bring us one but never did. Needless to say this will be our last time staying here unless we need to stay awake for 24 hours Hotels are not cheep in Downtown San Diego. Choose wisely. Hope this helps someone.

Information about the area

San Diego CA, United States of America

In the heart of San Diego, Alma San Diego Downtown, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel is within a 5-minute drive of Waterfront Park and Petco Park. This boutique hotel is 1.1 mi (1.8 km) from San Diego Convention Center and 1.3 mi (2 km) from Seaport Village.

San Diego, California, is one of the most culturally diverse cities in the United States and, arguably, one of the most beautiful. The whitewashed stucco buildings give a Mediterranean-style flavour to the architecture while the culture has a decidedly Mexican influence to it. Despite this foreign-country look and feel, the city of San Diego is uniquely American and a truly memorable place to visit. Mission Beach, one of the city’s most iconic spots, is perfect for surfing and relaxation. Balboa Park is one of the greatest urban parks of the world. With museums and gardens inside the park, you can spend days there. The grand houses of the Coronado district exude luxury and ate an historic national landmark. San Diego’s Old Town recreates traditional life from the past. Many fascinating buildings and artefacts bring the history alive in this area of the city. Everywhere there are blossoming flowers and spouting fountains and the magnificence of this colourful garden city makes it easy to forget the arid terrain of the nearby desert. With its many attractions and close proximity to Mexico, San Diego is an unforgettable city that's a very special kind of tourist metropolis.
