This historic building has been updated and is really beautifully decorated. We strongly recommend reading the posting thoroughly as not all rooms have their own bathroom nor showering facilities, but rather, share with other guests. Fellow guests were respectful, the bed was very comfortable, and the check-in/check-out process was easy. The property is not staffed at all times but we did not have any issues with this. Great quick, easy overnight!

I would have liked to have a chair in my room. The only place to sit was on the bed. I was also surprised that there was no sir conditioning, but luckily the temperature was not bad. The airplanes constantly flying overhead were very loud. Sharing a bathroom was definitely a new experience, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

Would not stay again. Check in very confusing through emails and the room was supposed to be a family suite, but the second bed is on a mezzanine accesible through an attic folding door and the distance bed to ceiling is no more than 3 FT! In the middle of the night, there was noice, apparently homeless people were breaking in, lots of shouting, SD police was called, what a horrible hotel experience.

The hotel is very central, 5 minutes from the San Diego Airport, and walking distance to Little Italy and downtown. This property doesn’t offer parking; however, there is plenty of street parking and paid parking in the area. Our room was small, but very clean and updated. Small functional bathroom, kitchenette with fridge, microwave, and sink. The ceiling fan came very handy for our June stay. Overall, a very good experience for the price.
