Great for a long weekend
We were very happy with our stay. We stayed 3 nights.The staff were friendly and attentive and made us laugh! The bed was comfy and clean. Loved the fridge access! My only feedback is the room smelled heavily of marijuana due the folks next to us smoking, which we know the hotel cannot control.

I thought it was a neutral location. One day stay, pretty clean, nearby Gaslamp. The staff was ok. I didn’t feel welcomed as I entered. I guess you can say that the hotel did what it was supposed to do, have a place for me to stay.
