This property was perfect for what my family and I were looking for. It was clean. Parking worked out great and included breakfast also was a bonus. The walls are definitely thin. The staff were lovely when there were staff at the front desk but there seem to be times when no one was there. I am guessing they are understaffed which seems to be an issue everywhere. I would definitely recommend. Such a cute neighborhood and restaurans within walking distance were fabulous.

First time in San Diego, and this hotel did not disappoint. The staff was very friendly, easy check in and out. Nice modern rooms and comfortable bed and also a great variety for breakfast. The hotel was also right in the downtown area that is walkable or a low price Uber to and from restaurants. I would highly recommend staying here!

My family and I were passing through San Diego and we stayed there for one night only. The hotel was very accommodating and the staff was great, especially a Haitian man by the names of Bruno. He was very kind and helpful. He deserves a raise !!!
