Great place to stay. Easy check-in and the host was quick to respond with any questions or concerns. Definitely felt like home with the ambience of being in my own bedroom. The area around the hotel is quiet and well maintained. Parking is easy to find and cheap. Sunday parking is free. And lots of food places in the area. Will stay here again on my next adventure.

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful stay! For the price is was great and the room was clean. The staff is AMAZING and very responsive! I left my wallet and they were quick to let me know. Also, definitely check your messages if you don't get your room number and codes in an email. Parking can be a pain but there is a place across from Kind Coffee that's 15 a day instead of 35.

The positives is a clean room, good toilet paper, and unique decor. The negatives were very small shower, creamer and sugar were hard as a rock and old. Sink had no stopper so there was a fear of small things going down the pipe, and no cafes or restaurants nearby.

Cozy and comfortable room. The hotel managers were very kind and helpful when I had trouble locking my room. The room I stayed in was not quite soundproof as I could hear conversations in the entrance lobby, but it really didn’t bother me. I’d love to stay here again one day

Julio

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Upon arrival, I was dismayed to find that the establishment lacked a front desk or any staff to assist me. The only means of communication was through text messages, and I was expected to enter my room using a keypad. The room itself was minuscule, with the sink situated in the bedroom, leaving no space for a closet or even a hook to hang my clothes. I encountered further difficulties when I had a package delivered, only to find that there was no one to receive it. The absence of basic amenities, such as a vending machine or ice, was remarkable. The keypad entry system seemed to be the only "service" provided, and it felt like I was staying in a glorified hostel. As I settled into my room, I discovered evidence of mice, including droppings on the floor. The sink was so small that I had to carefully place my toothbrush, and the room was so cramped that I was grateful to be traveling alone. The location was also inconvenient, with no nearby amenities, making a car essential. However, finding parking was a challenge. I was perplexed by the positive reviews, which seemed to be from frequent travelers. My stay was brief, lasting only two nights, and I was relieved to be there for business rather than leisure.

We really liked our room, it was suite #22. It had everything we needed for the time we were visiting San Diego (microwave, mini fridge, a couple of dishes, shower with hot water). The Hotel does not have its own parking so my advice is to look into where you want to park before staying here. We could hear people from other rooms but it wasn’t too bad to the point where we couldn’t sleep, we just turned the AC on and it tuned out the noise. Overall the stay was good, the room was cute but find parking before you stay here.

this is basically a hostel for grown ups. In one of the worst parts of town there's no lobby or visible staff, my room did not have a closet and looks like the "bathroom" was added to a nice fraternity room. walls are thin so i could here the tv from a room down the hall. low price so small room expected. its clean they sent me the codes (no keys) morning of stay. didn't need anything so not sure but they seem responsive. great as a crash room.

Creativity abounds here. It is more like an air Band B, which can have some advantages and drawbacks, such as no lobby or front desk. Parking is mostly two hours, also, Monday through Saturday, so that could be an issue for longer stays.

John

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
positives: outstanding on-site custodian--allowed me early check-in due to cleaning staff being done early, and fixed issue with sink leaking water after check-out. negatives: phone customer service was atrocious, due to: 1) property is managed by place that has another property, and they were answering my questions as if I were guest at that other property (wrt storing luggage before check-in and after check-out), and english not being their first language made it difficult to understand what the disconnect was, and 2) hours were only 8a-5p or so--left 6-8 messages and sent email, but no responses until daytime work hours. that is simply unacceptable--if a person has a question, they need it answered! also, expedia did not prominently warn customers there was no front-desk at the property until AFTER I made the purchase. expedia really needs to be much more transparent wrt properties that are very diff't from traditional hotel experiences.

The room was great. They tried to run my credit card after it said “pay at check-in” never received a 48hr email only after I called to complain about them running my card when I haven’t checked in, ignoring my calls 4x times after I messaged them to answer and got a “sigh” from Angela. Just thought that was fishy as hell. Why charge my card when I haven’t received a confirmation email like stated on site and why charge my card if I’m not checking in?! Was told I’d get a call back but was sent the email and payment link at 11am for a room you can’t check in into until 4pm.
