"I was expecting a bit more of a wow factor with this property. There really wasn't a luxury element. Felt as though they are relying on the ocean view, which is spectacular, and the proximity to the beach, also spectacular. Still things felt a bit run down. Overall, quite clean and well organized. Beach access and view can not be surpassed."

"I was going to stay at the Hilton, but between high prices and $50 parking, I choose Greentree and this was the best decision I could have made. Everything was up to par and location was central to every destination in San Diego."
