Our stay was wonderful. The staff were kind and helpful. Allowed us to leave bags with them while we did our second leg and came back there. Rooms were comfortable and the a/c cold. Terrific fireplace easy to operate. Loved our stay there!!

The staff were welcoming, it was easy to park, check in, and bring our items to our designated room. The lobby and atrium are so cute!! The room was cozy and perfect! Downstairs dining was perfection (super tasty food and cocktails). Nightlife was just a short walk away.

I stayed here before and I'd stay here again. The hotel has character, with some of the trade offs that entails. The wifi is good and included (good), but the beds aren't as firm as those in a chain hotel (bad). They've stopped offering breakfast, but there are good coffee shops literally around the corner.

Good value for the location. It’s right next to the heart of gaslamp. Don’t expect a 5 star hotel and you’ll be fine.

This facility is old and therefore not in the best mechanical condition. The bathtub had no grab bars, il functioning drain (which means you had to stand in 2 - 3 inches of water to take a shower) very risky especially with a slippery bathtub floor. Sometimes the door to the room wouldn't open and sometimes the elevator wouldn't work. Coffee maker in the room was a single serve portable NOT suitable for making your own coffee. The price was outrageous for such a poor facility. No normal food service on premises.

Rather bland room was minimally decorated, but spacious enough. The balcony, for which I paid extra, overlooked an inner courtyard and offered no privacy. So was worthless.Small bathroom. Comfortable bed Cozy bar w. personable bartenders. Very limited, expensive food menu .Most positive: great location, near many restaurants. Most negative: no breakfast available. Might stay again, mainly for the location. 7/10.
