This is our favorite hotel to stay at. It is a fun location with lots to do in walking distance. The hotel is extremely clean and staff is friendly and helpful. The only downside is the room was very small, but it’s not too bad.

We absolutely loved this hotel! My daughter and I shared a room with two beds, and we were very comfortable. The bathroom is modern and the shower was very easy to access comfortably. The hotel staff was helpful and informative, as well as friendly. There was breakfast available, but we wanted to wander around the neighborhood and find some coffee and pastries outside the hotel, which was very easy to do. And the location couldn't be better - in the Gaslamp district and very close to Little Italy.

In the heart of the night life. Great place to stay if you want to experience the bars and downtown vibe. Once in my room I could not hear any of the night life noise or hustle and bustle. Very close to Petco Park (ballpark) - walkable. Very close to the convention center - walkable. I would stay there again.

Great room, kind/helpful staff, great location. The only issue was that we stayed on the busy street side and after the World Cup soccer game, the bars/restaurants on the street below the hotel were incredibly loud. The bass from the music next door made it hard to sleep
