This hotel was in the most ideal location! Firstly it is steps away from the vibrant Little Italy area that is full of restaurants and music. It is also in good proximity to transportation (trolleys, bus stops) that can take you to the main tourist spots (zoo, balboa park, gaslamp quarter, la jolla). The hotel was clean and the staff was very nice. The gym was clean and had great machine options for a hotel. I did not use the outdoor space but it did have a spacious outdoor patio with a pool and hot tub. Highly recommend this hotel!!

Location was great! Little Italy conveniently close. Downtown nightlife not a far drive away. The minor inconvenience was the ice machine on our floor didn't work and the fridge in our room also didn't work.

Old but useable

The hotel is older and all room amenities work but need renovating. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Our stay was good overall. It was very close to Little Italy and that was a plus. Neighborhood is near homeless people so don't wander off in the wrong direction.

A good property, but the garage was a nightmare to exit. Because the exit was so difficult to navigate we try to limit how much we took out our car which then limited how much we could do :(

Limited parking options

If your vehicle doesn’t fit in the 6’8” parking structure for $40 per night, then there is only street parking if you are lucky enough to find it in this very busy downtown area.

This is a good property to stay at. The only problem is hotel parking should be free because the parking structure access is so narrow and it is hard to get out.
