Our room was clean, small, and modern. Our room did have view of a wall, but we only stay one day and we were okay with it. staff were very helpful and friendly. The hotel seemed nice overall. It was close many restaurants and to the convention centre.

My husband and I recently stayed at AC by Marriott for his conference in SD. The location is fantastic as it is in the heart of Gaslamp Quarters and close to everything. I gave it a 3 star because of average service (lackluster welcome at reception and during phone inquiries). The bathroom smelled and at some point the toilet got clogged and when I called the front desk they said they will send someone but just delivered a plunger and left it at the door! For the price they were charging 250-270 a night you would expect better service and the valet charge was outrageous too and you don't have that many options for parking in Gaslamp quarters. I feel like for the cost it could have been a better experience and it wasn't.
