The Westin San Diego Bayview

Wow wow wow. Staying at this hotel was an exceptional choice. The location is amazing, centered and close to everything. We were able to get ride share from the airport and WALK everywhere. |The staff was great but one stand out was the Bartender at the lobby bar DAVID A I think his last name was Aldrid. He was a peach. Made me feel so welcomed, told me about the best places to grab a bite and see the town. If I came back to this hotel it would be 1. For the location and 2. For drinks every morning with David.

I've never stayed here, but I work nearby and often stop into the lobby bar after work to watch sports on TV. Sometimes just a beer to catch the end of a Padres game. But two years ago, I caught a lot of the Olympics, and today I watched an hour of the winter Olympics. Great place to just relax and enjoy a drink.

Positive: "" Negative: No refresh of room while staying 3 nights. If you wanted clean towels, etc. you had to ask. Didn’t know this and expected our room to be refreshed while we were away for the day. Additional daily fee is worthless, just a way to get more money.

Clarifying why I am giving service 2 instead of 5. The hotel staff including valet gets a 5. The management gets zero. Understaffed or mismanagement of staffing. Valet is operated by “ACE” parking. If you hire a vendor to valet your cars, Marriot needs to make sure they are providing the correct staffing. Renovated rooms had very nice and comfortable beds and bedding. Pillows were great. Can’t call a room renovated if you are not paying attention to all the details. Bathroom specs are horrible. Corners and other areas still had rust and were not clean. Overall not a bad stay but management needs to pay attention to the small details.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The location is great and close to a lot of things. I'd like to single out the cleanliness. I believe her name was Martha Castillo, she was our housekeeper. She was very kind and did such an excellent job. She even brought us extra towels when we ran out and did it with a smile.
