I stay here for a weekend trip and it was truly amazing. The property is beautiful, staff was incredible, the location was perfect, close enough to the night life but far enough where you aren’t in the middle of it. Will definitely be staying here again.

Great hotel downtown
Great hotel in the Gas Lamp district. Lots of dining, and amenities nearby. The room was comfortable with great style and decor. I will say the lights had a short and several of them did not work properly. The fridge also did not stay cold. Pool is great and lots of great seating. Food and drinks were great and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. Affordable parking is a challenge, but it is downtown San Diego.
Gregory, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Was a very nice stay. Room was clean, staff was friendly, pretty quiet.
Tabatha, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Convenient location
Nice trendy hotel. mattress needs replacing as they sink in the middle. Temperature control didn’t work well and was too cold at night and not enough bed covering. Staff are very pleasant and good location. Like the cafe and assessable bar. Think a little too pricey and not sure I would pay that price again and don’t understand a resort fee for a downtown hotel!
