My Story

I was in need of a getaway where nobody knew who I was and where I was from. I made reservations at the US Grant based on the pictures from the website. I arrived under the porte-cochere and right away the attendant replied welcome and I replied thank-you. I walked into the lobby and the pictures I saw on the website did not do the hotel justice. The largest crystal chandeliers I ever saw guided me down beautiful carpeting to the check in desks. I felt like I was going to the academy awards. The check in staff said welcome Mr. Rahn and I was shocked they knew my name. I booked a standard suite that was much more than standard. I arrived into a corner suite with corner views of downtown San Diego and the Coronado Bridge. The staff became my friends as each day they would recommend things to do and ask how is my stay going. My problems were left tucked away thousands of miles away and I was in a new place. I made friends though-out the city and what was supposed to be a getaway where nobody knew me is now a second home. Thank-you for being my home away from home.

Jonathan Rahn
