Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
While the staff was very nice & helpful, the rooms are very small-smaller than I expected after choosing a room online. The bathroom showed signs of wear. We heard every door on the floor slam shut each night. Bed was comfy and room clean.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was very friendly. Loved the vintage style however, the room is a lot smaller than I thought it would be. There is no counter space other than where the coffee machine & cups are. The elevator doors are very heavy & only 1 was working.

Stacy

Disliked: Room comfort
The aesthetic was cute but the room was uncomfortable , you would go from hot to cold and then back to hot in a matter of 30 minutes . The noise was horrible, you could hear every door slam shut every 15 minutes with people using the stairs, so if sleep is what you are looking for don’t stay here.

Nice staff and unique, beautiful hotel even if it’s old building, seems they tried to keep it well. The only minus about this hotel was close to broadway where too many homeless reside otherwise overall good place to stay

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Inattentive staff, we asked to be called on the phone so we wouldn’t miss the fly the next day, but they didn’t. In the room was no shower gel in the dispenser, not even a handsoap. Glass bottle in the room too expensive ($13 each) Expensive for what they offer. They intend to preserve the classic style of the hotel and it looks beautiful.

I booked the hotel for my daughter. When my daughter tried to check in, her credit card limit was not adequate to cover the entire booking for a week. Unfortunately, the hotel's policy did not allow me to pay by phone or online. They wanted someone to be there in person with a credit card and an ID. It was very frustrating. How could I travel from Michigan to San Diego within a couple of hours to be there when my daughter was trying to check in in the evening? Hotel staff did not even consider the unique situation and allowed me to pay over the phone or online, when we can pay online or over the phone anywhere in the country or the world. I talked to the staff and tried to explain the unique situation, but they did not care. After trying to get their help for more than 2 hours and failing, I reached out to a couple of friends, and one of them could find a friend in San Diego to go to the hotel and help my daughter checked into the hotel.
