Front staff was friendly and helpful. They always said hello to me when i walked through the lobby. The attached parking lot was very nice to have in a crouded city, although a bit expensive, ($30 per night) it was useful. Room was nice and clean when we arrived. I loved the coffee machine that was in the lobby that dispensed cappuccinos/ hot chocolate and coffee! The area around the hotel is very walkable with a restaurant next to the hotel and a Starbucks across. There are many restaurants and cafes just a couple minutes away and the ocean was about a 10-15 min walk. I would recommend this hotel to others, 5 stars!

Great stay!

The staff was helpful and friendly. The location near Little Italy’s restaurants and cafes was wonderful. The rooms and beds were comfortable. The hotel was clean, but the elevator and lobby area (where the non-working complimentary coffee and juices were located) needed some tlc. I was disappointed to find out that a complimentary breakfast was not offered, and was only offered off property.

Property was close to train station and little Italy . It was also an easy walk to the Petco stadium. It only took us 30 minutes to walk there . Very close to water front 5 minutes walk . Would stay here again . Some of the streets did smell like urine especially by the train station as a few homeless were around there but you were never bothered by them .
