Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina

swimming pool, fitness, staff.

poor breakfast, no vegetables, expensive parking

The staff was great, very accommodating and super friendly! I would go back but probably not on such a busy weekend.

Overall, the hotel was nice and we had a great time. We booked on a busy weekend, the entire place was sold out. There was a lot of traffic. Getting an elevator up or down was nearly impossible and when you did catch one, it was too full so you'd have to wait 10 minutes for the next and hope there was room otherwise you were waiting again. When we arrived we received the wrong room, I booked 2 doubles and received a King. The hotel was able to accommodate us which was really appreciated but we had to move towers. The tower we were placed in seemed to be the older of the two. Looked really dingy with the headboards of the beds all worn and torn and the windows were cloudy and dirty. For the price we paid I felt like the room was unacceptable. I did not complain; at that point we had already wasted so much time waiting in the long check-in line, then trying to catch a ride up the elevator to the wrong room, then waiting for our new rooms and having to move over, that we just wanted to unpack and get to the pool. We got to the pool and it was very crowded, as it should be for the Holiday weekend. Understandable. The water looked gray and cloudy, very dirty. A maintenance guy was outside checking on the levels and I did mention to him how dirty the water looked and he said he noticed the same thing and was looking into it. Not sure what happened from there as I didn't see him anymore after that. Again, overall we had a great time, my kids especially, as they don't know any better. The staff was great and everyone was super friendly! I would go back but probably not on such a busy weekend.
