Recently stayed here for 4 nights. It is within walking distance to the Gaslamp district. They call this hotel Sheraton Suites but one would expect a kitchenette in a suite. There was a microwave but no fridge. We called the front desk and they sent a mini fridge up.
The room was the size of a slightly larger than average hotel room but just separated by french doors. The pull out couch was atrocious if you actually needed to pull it out. I sat down on it and instantly sunk to the floor! No, I am not overweight. My child could not sleep on this. There were two beds in the bedroom so we managed.
The bathroom door has a sliding door that is a pain. It makes a horrible banging noise when you close it, hence waking up everyone in the middle of the night if you have to use it.
The parking sucks. You have to spiral up 7 floors (until you are green) and then wind up another 4 floors until you get to the Sheraton parking. After that you need to take an elevator up one floor. Then you are in the lobby. Then you can finally take an elevator up to your floor. A tad convoluted, don't you think? All for the price of $23 a day!
With the bad out of the way I will get to the good. It is not a fine hotel. Good location. The rooms are clean. They even provide wine glasses which I find unusual for a Sheraton. The staff was wonderful. The bartenders in the lounge were very, very personable. I'm sorry I didn't get their names. In fact, all of the staff we encountered went out of their way to be very friendly. We really appreciate this.
The pool was small but according to my children who are connoisseurs of hotel pools, "fun".
We had a wonderful time in San Diego and I would suck it up (parking) and stay here again.
