Paul, who worked the front desk was very kind and friendly. The only thing I don’t like is that they don’t accept cash for the purchases in the little concession area because coming from Canada it would be easier just to use the American money we had

Enjoyed my stay, the cozy bar in the lobby was great to relax in the evenings, staff was excellent. My only complaint would be the breakfast - it was over-priced at $20 and the food was rather cold. Most hotels include breakfast with their room rate, and if they want to charge for it, $8 or $10 would be more appropriate.

My room was extremely clean and well taken care of. The general manager (Vebi) was very friendly and helpful. The bartender was extremely personable and overall the staff was kind and willing to help me with directions and information on things to do in there neighborhood. San Diego was a beautiful city to visit and I highly recommend staying at the Dextro Hotel.
