The Park Manor Suites was a comfortable place to stay but the rooms were too dark and the living room furniture wasn't comfortable. The bathroom was not very modern. The balcony was nice but overlooked the parking lot.
We both liked the spacious feeling with the separate rooms. It was right across from Balboa Park and the location was central to most of the places we wanted to visit.
There weren't a lot of facilities available within walking distance and we do walk a lot. There was a cute coffee shop a few blocks away but restaurants, shops, etc were over a mile from our hotel.
This did present a problem when we left for the evening because the hotel lot was often full when we returned. While the hotel does not charge for a parking spot, they also do not guarantee a spot. In fact, they do rent out spots in their lot. Two out of four nights we had to park and walk back which is not necessarily comfortable when you don't know the city.
The continental breakfast was available daily on the top floor with a view of the city. This was a great way to start our day. We ate one night in the restaurant and the food was delicious.
Despite being between two busy roads, the room was quiet.
Housekeeping did a great job and we were able to use a computer to print our boarding passes. Our room was ready and we were able to check in an hour early.
So, not the perfect place but certainly not a dump. -

My second stay at the Park Manor Suites and will be the only place I stay when visiting San Diego. Great location across the street from Balboa Park, great for early morning walks or runs. A 10 minute walk to University Avenue for dinning and shopping. The hotel built in 1926 shows no signs of wear. The hotel is very well maintained and very helpful staff. They do have a happy hour on the top floor Friday and Saturday nights, but allow hotel guest first shot at the elevator. There is a free parking lot has 40 spaces, first come first serve otherwise its street parking.

Old hotel. Looks nice from lobby and outside. Rooms are huge but not kept up. Stained carpets,dirty walls,old couches,dusty. Booked 5 night but had to cancel after one miserable night. No air conditioning at all and major construction and street noise makes this hotel a no go.
