I didn’t realize how loud this part of town is, but we were pleasantly surprised that our room was relatively quiet even on a Saturday night. The staff were extremely nice and very helpful with recommendations for food. The rooftop pool was also great, but not really our vibe. I would think this hotel would be excellent for those who want to be in the middle of the San Diego night life, but it’s also okay for those going to concerts at Petco Park or seeing the sights.

Very nice hotel, but loud since it's on the main street at the Gaslamp district. Also something we missed is they charge you $72 for parking so just factor that into your hotel rate. We stayed Sunday into to Monday thinking it was a week day and shouldn't be too loud, the music from the next door restaurants went on until 3:00 am in the morning. Thank goodness they give you some earplugs but it still kept us up. Overall a very nice clean hotel just didn't like the area it was in, a little dirty and alot of stuff going on in the streets.

The AC Hotel in San Diego has a perfect location if you’re in town to party, enjoy nightlife, and be close to the action. However, it is not a good choice if you’re looking for a quiet, restful stay. The noise outside did not stop until around 4:00 a.m., making it very difficult to sleep. Unfortunately, our room was also located next to the ice machine, which was extremely loud throughout the night. Between the street noise and the constant sound of the machine, we barely got any rest. Great location for nightlife, but I would recommend requesting a room away from the ice machine and higher floors if you are sensitive to noise.

The staff was very kind and helpful the entire stay & the hotel itself is very clean and new (minimal carpeted floors which I always look for). The only thing I could see being an issue for some travelers is it is in the heart of the Gaslamp district, so it can get a little loud during the weekends until last call. It was perfect for my little sister and I but is definitely something to consider when booking a place in Downtown SD :) That being said the location was fantastic! Close to so many good restaurants and bars & pretty close to the Padres stadium too!
