I truly dont see how anyone could think this place is good! I would've been better off sleeping on the beach! First off the noise level is awful! A train goes by every 20 minutes and the main street the hotels located on is very noisy with cars going by. We stayed on the bottom floor and we were kept... More

I liked everything about the hotel except for the noise level. Every noise of the night easily made it into our room, waking us up. Of course Marina Inn couldn't help that a road crew showed up to do work on the corner the first night and the proceeding nights. Sleep was all but impossible without the earplugs we went... More

As a world traveler never encountered such greed. Not only was my room in a nosy area without them giving me advance notice, but when attended priced me a rate but the numbers where so off I didn't want to be rude because I had no point to argue. I then went online that had the same price rates she... More

Michael & Doris WeI stayed at the Marina Inn over the Easter weekend 2012. If you watch your budget and still want to be in the heart of San Diego at a simple, yet very clean place we would highly recommend it. Most of all impressed us the extremely friendly and helpful young gentleman, who even gave us a complimentary... More

My friend and I stayed at the Marina in December 2011 for a couple of nights. The young gent who runs the place was extremely helpful and polite. The location is great, just by Little Italy station so accessible to all sights and downtown San Diego. The noise level wasn't as bad as some people have stated, I had no... More

I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends. It's not the Ritz, but it's clean, comfortable and reasonably priced. It's in a convenient location within a few minutes' walk of Little Italy, and about half an hour's walk to the Gaslamp Quarter. It's also very close to the airport. The staff are super-helpful. Breakfast is included: it's OK but... More

We stayed here for 2 nights, (before and after our cruise). We could not have been happier. The rooms were great, clean, and a decent size. The staff was wonderful, even accomodating us for an early check in when we got off the ship. Being one of the few hotels in San Diego where you can get a smoking room,... More

Our college rugby team recently booked 8 rooms for two nights at the Marina Inn & Suites in San Diego for a tournament. The hotel staff at the front desk were really great to work with and accomodated our late arrival and early departure each morning by setting up the breakfast early for us. The rooms are clean and comfortable... More

The rooms were very neat and clean. The bathrooms could have been a bit bigger. The service was excellent. The people at the front desk were very friendly and extremely helpful. Well definitely stay there again when in San Diego.

The hotel was conveniently located near the airport (where we had just landed) and the port where our cruise ship was to disembark the next day. John, one of the clerks, was friendly and helpful with information about places to visit during our "off day." In particular, he recommended a Mexican restaurant that turned out to be one of the...
