This was just a room for me. It was clean but had some mold on the shower and shower bar. To be expected with age. I wouldn’t go out of my way to go back.

AMAZING

This hotel is in the perfect location for a great stay in San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter! Walking distance from great restaurants, ice cream parlors, bars, dancing, even an awesome farmer's market on Saturday in little Italy. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely be back.

The staff was super friendly and very helpful. The only downside is the parking situation when arriving. They charge to park with their vallet and other places around the property seemed unsafe to park.
