Thanksgiving on beautiful Mission Bay!
Everything was wonderful. Loved the hotel, location, restaurant! We will be back for sure! (Hopefully though the 2nd elevator gets fixed! It was a long wait , and being on the 9th floor it was a few too many levels to use stairs).

The room was filthy when we arrived. Black handprints all over the bath towels hanging in the shower area and dirty carpet and entry way with food strewn along the sidewalks. The place is tired and the location is good. Not worth the money if you are looking for nice clean accommodations.

4/10 Fair

This is, easily, the worst experience of my life with a hotel. In fairness, I believe it was the app/site inflating the importance; do not believe the reviews. This was the first time I used them, as I was in a bind and needed something in the vicinity. It is a decent MOTEL. The staff is very friendly. Nothing else about the property is worth discussing and the rooms smell like…ammonia. (I am deleting the Hotels.com app immediately)

6/10 Good

Maid service came at dinner time one day and not at all the next. Lots of noise from the birds which were housed next door. Assigned to a room with two doubles after booking a king bed room since TV didn’t work in king bedroom. TV went out in our room as well.

Family trip paradise
We loved our stay. The location and service was perfect. We will stay again. It was a family trip with 2 kids 9 and 17. Both enjoyed the arcade and walking around looking at things. We all felt safe and comfortable.

2/10 Poor

Go elsewhere.
Other than the location which is nice I have nothing good to say unfortunately. Starting from the rude person the checked us in, through the outdated rooms from the 70’s. All the facilities that are closed, not working, run down or have another issue And ending with the restaurant that the hotel claimed had to be shut down due to a leak but I suspect was closed down due to that would be fixed over night but was never fixed during the following 3 days until we left ( they were shut down for health violations a couple months ago….). Will definitely not come back and suggest you do the same.

My wife and I felt as if we were reminded of the vibe of Hawaii when we walked in the lobby!! The atmosphere is amazing and the staff was really friendly. if we come back to San Diego we will consider staying at the Catamaran.
