If you just need a bed and bathroom, this is a great spot. The room and bathroom has minimal shelfing. There is no ice machine on site. The rooftop lounge fire places didn't work- perhaps its only seasonal. No staff on site, which is not a big deal, however, 1st day I reported a broken conditioner bottle and it took over a day to replace. For the price, its a good place to stay and has a good location. If it had an ice machine on site, i would have given 4 stars

Great value! Loved the easy check-in process and the decor. Location close to restaurants/bars, and Petco park. Only issue we had in our room was the A/C not blowing cold air and was very loud but they provided ear plugs. On our check-out day the A/C finally started to feel like it was working. Cleanliness was good but cleaners missed a questionable food stain. Overall charming hotel but slightly missed a few marks.

Good stay in downtown San Diego

Nice little boutique hotel. 10 minute walk to Gaslamp District. The room was very clean & the bed was comfortable. There is no one at the front desk, so all communication is via text but it was run very well; any questions or concerns were answered almost immediately.

Very walkable to a lot of downtown and multiple bus/trolley stops. Sometimes gets a little loud; room does not get dark. Suggestion: please put up curtains on top of the blinds, the blinds do not block out the light from outside.

Very convenient for Gas Lamp Quarter & convention

The location was good; about a 15 minute walk from the convention center. The room was very clean and the area was quiet overall. I spent some time on the rooftop lounge which was done nicely. I think the only thing I would have personally preferred would be having someone at the front desk. Not that the virtual front desk was bad at all; it was perfectly fine and convenient when you want to be an introvert. All of my questions were answered right away by the virtual front desk. I think I just like the idea of having someone there. I have no complaints, honestly, and would stay here again.

Great Find

This was in an excellent location in San Diego! Right outside the Gas Lamp District and with walking distance of many others. The building is an old refinished building with tons of charm and a great outdoor roof space. We really enjoyed our stay!

This hotel will be my go-to in San Diego—excellent value for the location. The staff was friendly, and it was convenient being near Orange Theory for a good workout. The room was small but comfortable, and perfect for our stay, especially after a night out in the Gaslamp Area.
