Tv wasn’t working upon arrival. Notified front desk and all they could do is tell us we have to wait till next day. Shower overflowed into hallway. Sink backed up. Toilet seat was very loose slid all over. Very very loud around hotel

AC Hotel was such a great choice for our night stay! Everything was clean and modern! The rooms were clean and a good size with everything we needed! The staff was also very nice and made sure our needs were met. Since there is no on sight parking, we had to pay $58 for the valet parking. Valet was also great! They were quick with getting our vehicles and very polite. Our stay was great over all.

My 40th birthday weekend

I had a great experience staying in the Gaslamp district of San Diego. The AC hotel staff were amazing and accommodating. I had to change my room due to AC issues and the staff moved me to a better room with a full balcony. This was my 40th birthday celebration trip. Despite the noise outside my balcony of the festivities on 5th street, I had an amazing memorable experience!

fave hotel in san diego

The most gorgeous hotel! The staff was so kind, gave us the latest hotel checkout I’ve ever had and gave me a few treats to ring in my birthday weekend. The rooms are so nice, the bathroom in the rooms have such great counter space and a HUGE mirror so it makes it easy to get ready with friends. The pool is heated during the winter so we were able to watch the sunset and hang out even though it’s winter. Parking was $60 but they valet it’s worth it because parking can be hard to find in gaslamp. I’ll definitely be back!
