Would stay again. Location fantastic - could walk everywhere and did not need to have our car. Would like to take the train next time.
Liked: Great location. Central and easy to get around.
Disliked: Rooms small.

Good
Liked: The hotel is in a safe area in San Diego downtown. The streets were all walkable and it is very close to the San Diego Convention Centre (15 min walk). It is a 5 min walk from the gaslamp area and close to many restaurants and shops. It is just a 10 min ride from the airport. The staff was friendly. The bed was very comfortable. The housekeeping staff was great! The lobby area was beautiful. This room is good for a 1-2 day work-related stay.
Disliked: The room I stayed in was very small and did not match the pictures on the website that much. The room opens up to an area that has a washbasin just as you enter the room, which looks displeasing aesthetically. The bathroom was extremely small and the washbasin was separate from the bathroom, which was inconvenient to me personally. The bathroom had a sliding door that did not close tightly. The door did not have a security chain/ latch and I had to put a chair at night for added safety. The room did not have a good window view. The room also did not have appropriate lighting. The check-in and checkout times cannot be requested even a day in advance, you can only know if your request has been accepted on the same day, which was inconvenient and unpredictable for me.

Okay but not sure on the local area.
Liked: Location to Southport. Starbucks downstairs. Free coffee station.
Disliked: Rooms really small. We had a two queen double beds and there was barely any space. We had three people in our room and you had to take turns to move around. Bathroom also very compact. Sadly the homeless and drug epidemic has spread to San Diego and it is evident around the outside area of the hotel. No bar or restaurant available so you have to head into town in the evening.
