“Great value; good location”

Country Inns & Suites By Carlson

5 of 5 stars
San Diego, California

1/1 found this review helpful

I stayed at the Country Inn and Suites because I had a meeting at UCSD. The location was perfect for access to UCSD which was only about a five minute drive away. The hotel was also within easy driving distance of many restaurants and stores. The area was new and nice and I felt safe. The hotel itself was nice. The staff was friendly and the room was nice and spacious. The bathroom looked slightly dated but overall I was very pleased with the accommodations.

“Far away from downtown, nice place”

This place is a good value, although it's about a 15-minute drive to downtown SD, without traffic. But it's quiet, the staff are very friendly and my room was super clean. But it was a hotel - sterile and lacking personality.

Oh well, at least they gave me a free cookie when I checked in!

“$97/night nice hotel, little smelly on 7th floor”

Country Inns & Suites By Carlson

Feb 21, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

The hotel was nice, and they had free cookies in the evening. The check-in went smoothly. We got a weekend nightly rate of only $97 on hotels.com. Stayed on the 7th floor, which was extremely chilly when we got off the elevators. They keep the main area 59 degrees in the halls. The hallway had a funny odor too, not sure if that’s why they try to keep it colder up there. The room was basic & clean. Only place to eat near by is the Chili’s. This hotel is near Quallcom, and other tech companies, so I’m guessing we were in the Tech corridor. Hotel Circle seems to be a better choice if you want more options for meals & entertainment. This hotel overall was a good choice for the price, and we would stay there again.

“Good value, friendly staff, well maintained limited service hotel”

Country Inns & Suites By Carlson

4 of 5 stars
Columbus, OH
Nov 6, 2007
3/3 found this review helpful

For the price paid, one cannot beat. It reminds me a full-service Radisson that's been reflagged. Well-maintained hotel and rooms. Full American Breakfast with hot selections. Internet access is fair if you're on a high floor. Had to sit near the hotel door to get it. If you're looking for places to eat at though, it requires a little drive. Outside of Chili's which is in the parking lot, nothing is close by at all.
