Probably one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at. Staff was super nice and helpful, the room was clean and exceeded our expectations and everything is within walking distance. 10/10 would recommend and stay here again. Also the front desk lady Merry (yes Merry with an E) is an excellent employee.

Stayed here for the Chris Stapleton Concert, I liked how it was walking distance to Petco Park & we felt safe walking to and from the stadium. Upon checking in they give you a little history of the hotel with it being the oldest hotel in the area and you can definitely tell. The lobby had a lot of dust build up and the rooms could use a nice deep cleaning however the staff was very nice and I like how they lock the front doors at 5pm so only guests can go in and out. They do have a cocktail lounge in the basement that turns into a night club at 10pm that would be great for those who want some night life but don’t want to leave the hotel. This is a great location for those who love the bar life, they have lots of bars and restaurants right down the road. My only other complaint is there’s no vending machine so if you want any drinks or snacks you have to go to the 7/11 a few blocks away & it does get pretty loud at night since it’s in the heart of the Gaslamp District.

Unfortunately this was listed as a queen bed. The bed was a "full" at best. I understand the hotel is older but i am 6'3 with a 5'7 girlfriend and that was definitely disappointing. Lucky we only need the room for one night. Room lay out was also strange. I have never stayed in a hotel with the bed against the wall. Overall 3.5
