Great hotel
This hotel was conveniently located near Petco Park, where we were attending an event. We were offered a complimentary room upgrade and bottle of wine upon checking in. Room was very spacious, but we would have preferred larger beds (2 double beds were in the room). Self-parking was available around the corner for much less than the valet option.
