It was near the venue where I was attending a concert (San Diego Civic Theater). I like to stay close enough to walk to avoid parking hassles. And there are LOTS of interesting eating choices all within walking distance.

Love this little hotel right outside of Little Italy in San Diego. The staff was great. Considering it is an older building we had a great stay. Love that it is quiet and close enough to the water without the hustle and bustle.

The place was in a great location, beautiful amazing restaurants around, the best farmers market on the weekends and a walk to the cruise port. Frank at the front desk was so helpful! I traveled alone and was lost and he helped me charge my phone, hold my luggage and get an uber.

Staff was very friendly and gave great tips for places to visit nearby. The location was perfect! Walkable and near lots of restaurants and close to bus stops to get to other locations. Room/hotel itself is really dated, but the AC in my room worked well and the beds were comfy. Mini fridge was really cold too.

One staff person is on duty per shift, and 3 took excellent care of me in office on different shifts. Each was knowledgeable and helpful. The hotel has been updated but is not upscale and was safe, basic, and ok. It is in Little Italy, where there are many restaurants and bars. It is 5 blocks from MTA Bus 992 stop which goes to/from nearby airport for $2.50 on any credit card or cash.

I was only in town about 14 hours and needed an affordable place to sleep. The room was fine. There was constant noise from the rooms next door or above. I finally left about an hour early because of the noise.
