    Everything was pretty cool for the most part . We wanted to check in earlier for a concert and it didn’t quite work out but still liked the hotel and would go again. Super easy walk to pet co park

    This is an older Hotel that has been well maintained. The Hotel is located in the city but had very good security. Rooms very clean, AC worked great.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    We loved the old charm of the hotel. The staff were amazing! The rooftop with a 24 hour coffee and water machine was an extra added perk!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Very good

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Booked a junior corner suite with a view king and pull out bed and was put in a 200sq ft old janitorial style closet with a double bed. Completely over charged for this old place slapped with lipstick to call it luxury. Awful.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Room was clean serviced everyday very large. Felt safe and secure

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Superb

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    The staff is super friendly and accommodating. Stayed here to go to a Padres game. Worked out fine. Half mile walk past all the bars and restaurants you could imagine.
