Awesome location in Little Italy area of town. Many restaurants and bars in the area with outside dining. Small rooms. Great coffee shop and pizza shop downstairs. Great little interior courtyard. Friendly staff with good food recommendations. If you love Italian food, you'll be in love with this place and area. Never waiting more than a few minutes for an Uber. Little Italy area much more laid back than the Gaslamp district.

Perfect spot within walking distance of the trolley to get to other hot spots in San Diego. Staff was kind and professional regarding anything we needed. Great little spots within the neighborhood for eating and drinking, as well as a fun farmers market twice a week!

Our room itself was ok.. the first room we were given was not ready so we went back downstairs and they gave us another room right away. The room is very small, nothing fancy about it if that’s what you’re looking for then maybe get their more expensive room? On Saturday morning they had a huge farmers market right outside our hotel and along that whole street which was cool. Plenty of restaurants that were walking distance. Parking is an additional $35 that they deduct from the $100 deposit.

La Pensione is in an excellent location, right in the heart of little Italy and in downtown San Diego. You can step out of the hotel and have so many options for food, bars, etc. you’re also on the same street as little Italy’s farmers market which makes the space super fun and lively. People looking for night life options, great walkability and good vibes should definitely consider staying here! A couple things to consider: noise and lack of amenities. This area is LOUD pretty much day and night. Construction, live music outside, people talking, etc. You can hear it all from your room. I sleep with a white noise machine and that blocked out most noise at night. This hotel is very much European style: hardly any amenities, and tiny rooms. There’s no coffee/tea in the room, no alarm clock even, AC is the wall kind so doesn’t circulate well, no discounts on adjoining restaurants or meal service. If you’re just looking for a place to sleep in a great location, this is a great fit. The staff is friendly and accommodating, would definitely stay here again!
