Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and equipped with a Smart TV for entertainment, but there was a slight hint of cigarette smoke. The service was exceptional, especially from Maria. The location was convenient for exploring downtown San Diego and the harbor area. The dining experience in the courtyard left something to be desired, with limited options.
The hotel is ideally located near Gas Lamp Quarter with plenty of restaurants to choose from. The rooms, though quite small, offer all the basic amenities and feature a comfortable bed. The service was top-notch, very welcoming, and accommodating. On the downside, the dining options were somewhat limited, so plan on exploring nearby dining spots. Overall, a great value for money stay.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was great for exploring, but the noise from the busy street was bothersome. The rooms, though small, had an awesome shower and luxurious toiletries from Maison Margiela.
The hotel is ideally located, making it a convenient spot with clean and cozy rooms. The staff is friendly and helpful, but dining options may fall short. Overall, a comfortable stay with great value for money.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, the rooms were spacious and nicely located near restaurants and bars. The service was incredibly thoughtful and responsive. The location was right in the heart of everything, with walking distance to many places. The dining experience was a bit small but the hotel offers Italian products. Overall, a comfortable and convenient choice.
The hotel is conveniently situated in Downtown San Diego, close to the harbor area, Little Italy, and Gaslamp Quarter, making it easy to explore the vibrant surroundings. While the room size may not be spacious, the service is friendly and accommodating. Dining options are decent, though some areas could be improved for the price paid per night.
