    We were in a room close to the road, which was very noisy all night.

    The staff at this hotel are always extremely helpful. There is also a washer / dryer available for guest use that is very handy and reasonably priced.

    This is a lovely motel where the staff are friendly, comfortable rooms, and quality restaurant.

    The pillows were too soft. They weren’t bad, I prefer foam pillows. The toilet and shower were a bit close No radio in the room and I was unable to get HBO on the tv. That I would miss out on the fresh baked cookies sometimes.

    I liked the retro feel of the place but modern rooms. It reminded me of the motels of the 50’s $ 60’s but upgraded. The location was perfect. My room was spacious and housekeeping did excellent service. The beds were comfortable and not overly soft or overly firm. The pillows were my only issue. They weren’t bad, just that I am use to firmer pillows.

    Very nice place. Well maintained. The shower was up to date and clean (which is important to me but rare in little family-owned hotels, in my experience). The staff was friendly and competent, and the room was spotless. The mattress was fine—not amazing, but not worn out (also too common in such places). It took me a while to realize that the heat was a plug in space heater. I've never encountered that in a hotel before. But my criticisms border on quibbles. This was a very nice stay and if I have reason to be in or near Coronado again, for business or personal reasons, I would certainly stay here again.

    Excellent Experience

    My only negative was I think the rug in my king bed room should be replaced. My kids room however had nice new tile.

    Initial impression was The Inn itself it a quaint Mediterranean style with a courtyard and excellent restaurant attached in a very central location. It is walkable to both bayside and beachside restaurants/shops. If you aren't leaving Coronado you really don't need a car. The Inn itself was comfortable with nice size rooms/amenities. It is not a luxury hotel but if you are ok with basic amenities this fits the bill. The bed was heavenly and the bathroom was renovated in a lovely way with large shower. The staff was EXCELLENT - every one of them a pleasant welcome in the morning with your free coffee bar and a wealth of local information on restaurants and sites on Coronado and the San Diego coastal areas. Housekeeping was always on top of things with a smile! The attached Inn restaurant served us the BEST MEAL we had on the Island and SD area on Christmas Eve. I will be back and thank them all for a excellent experience.

    Nice hotel in quite Coronado, but not so far from San Diego

    The WiFi was misreable and kept dropping, it did work, but could be better.

    At first look, as I reached the hotel at night, it felt like a motel. However, in the daylight I could see how nice and quaint the hotel looked. The rooms were comfortable and the bathroom was really pretty. The bus stops is right in front of the hotel and across the street. It was only 20 mins to Convention Center via bus+walk from the hotel. The grocery story is half a mile away and the Coronado beach is also within walkable distance along with what looked like the shopping area of the "city". However, try to reach the hotel before 11PM as the hotel check-in is closed by that time. Maybe include a breakfast? :D
