Loved the room and location of the room. Wasn’t happy that it was hard to get hot water in the shower, and when it did, it didn’t last long. Other than that, it was great. Would stay there again. It’s located within walking distance of everything.

We really enjoyed our weekend stay. It was very convenient to walk to Petco Park for the concert we attended. There are multiple great restaurants within walking distance. Staff was great and friendly. The drinks at Salt and Whiskey were fantastic. Would definitely stay again.

The room was not very clean and many items were broken. The shower knob was broken and did not get hot. The fire alarm went off twice in the building, which was really loud and one of which was at 5AM.

Room was small but very clean and comfortable. Short walk to the heart of the gas lamp district. I reserved a room with street view but was on the 2nd floor with a view of the hotel's courtyard. Be sure to ask for 3rd or 4th floor to get a good view.

Loved the antiquity of the hotel. Very pretty. Room lovely, bed amazing. Sweet little balcony overlooking the internal courtyard. Disappointed that they didn’t offer coffee in the foyer in the morning. Room coffee is always iffy, and going out to find a decent cup at 7am seemed unnecessary and frankly cheapened the otherwise lovely hotel. Area safe and decent eating about 2-3 blocks away. Area directly around the hotel a little run down but safe. Great eating about 5 minutes walk from the hotel, and hop on hop off trolley literally right around the corner. We had a great time

I wasn't expecting such a beautiful well kept place. This hotel is worth every minute of your stay. Use the valet service! It's great to utilize this service. Your car is safely stored in their garage nearby and easy to retrieve. It is a great service. Every employee is kind and helpful. The building is full of cool history and in "museum" condition. When I return I will be staying here for sure. Close to all aminities in the area and a walk to the bay is close by. The Gaslamp Quarter reminds me of New Orleans, lots of diversity. Thank you for making our stay here exceptional.
