Make sure to book the room that is on the other side of the building otherwise road noise will kill you.. Also no heaters in the room, you need to request one if you get cold, and those heaters make noise as well, if you are light sleeper like myself, good luck..

The location is amazing if you want to stay somewhere that feels like a city. The staff is lovely and welcoming. Rooms are simple and functional, and I really appreciated the shared kitchen with coffee. I'm thinking of moving back to San Diego, and would readily stay here more long-term if I didn't have a pet.
