THRILLER Stay

Let me first say that I've stayed here often and that I'm from San Diego. I filled out a check in survey yesterday and although my replies were all positive I feel bad because I made a mistake. I still feel very positive about everything during this stay. But I was asked during the check-in about if I received anything special or VIP offerings. I said no. When I checked in I was in a hurry to dinner and I returned late and went to sleep. I didn't see the wonderful arrangements that were provided for me until 30 minutes including a very classy letter from Omar Carrillo acknowledging my world boxing title winning anniversary. I'm extremely touched by it along with the treats and I won't forget it and like always you'll see me again God willing. Thanks for validating my decision to celebrate at Westgate San Diego

My stay at the resort was absolutely great—comfortable accommodations and a pleasant environment. However, I was not informed ahead of time about additional resort fees or taxes, nor was I told that I needed to visit the front desk at checkout to receive a final receipt via email. When I called on August 6, 2025 at 6:20 AM to request the receipt and ask when to expect my deposit refund, I was met with an incredibly rude receptionist. They repeatedly talked over me, and when I respectfully tried to get their attention by saying “Sir,” they became highly offended, loudly corrected me with “Ma’am, Ma’am, Ma’am—I am a Ma’am,” and then hung up on me. This interaction left a very negative impression after an otherwise enjoyable stay. Clear communication about fees and checkout procedures, along with professional customer service, would have made a big difference.

Nifty, elegant charm with some drawbacks.

The Westgate receives a mixed review for my stay. Pros: the Tea Service is really fun & the service outstanding. Strong recommend. The rooftop pool is fun, social and also a recommend; however the pool bar/menu could use a refresh. Very expensive for the options available. The menu is “healthy “ but is limited and too quirky and trendy. Sometimes you just want a club sandwich with fries. Hotel Room: spacious and classic. Location: walkable to theaters, gaslamp, restaurants. Cons: Most of the hotel rooms are adjacent to the trolley which relentlessly blows its horn day/night. The windows in the rooms ARE NOT modern and therefore it sounds like you’re sleeping on the trolley. All other noises- sirens, dogs, arguments on the street- all can be heard. Bathroom: both big and small- in other words, poor use of a large enough space. There’s a long makeup counter with a sit down vanity, but no stool or chair? The counter height is low, which makes it awkward no matter your height. Rooms have some neat features but need new carpet. Our room has a connecting door so you can hear almost everything your neighbor is doing. Finally- at $52 a night the valet should be professional. Most were, but the late night valet was condescending and rude only to me- not my husband. I didn’t appreciate the misogyny. I did report it to the front desk upon check out. I haven’t had a follow up yet, but I did receive apologies from the team there. So to wrap, some really great things, some not so great.

Five star service, from front counter to cleaning staff. Impeccably clean and well maintained property with old world aesthetic, spacious rooms, and modern conveniences (outdoor gym and running track a real attraction for fitness conscious travelers). One quibble would be room decor and fixtures which could use an update.

The trolley or train located right behind the hotel was sooooooo noisy. I think it ran til 12:30 in the morning and started again around 5:30am so we got maybe 5 hours of sleep max. Plus the room wouldn’t really cool down. The front desk staff that everyone raves about seemed pretty non-chalant and non-helpful nor were they knowledgeable about the surrounding area restaurants, etc. And the ridiculously overpriced valet was super slow. Not impressed at all when spending almost $400 a night.
