Cozy
Quiet room. Good air conditioning. Good breakfast. Terrace was a good place to relax at night and eat our breakfast in the morning. With the plants and shrubbery we felt secluded from the city.

Fine place but the shower had so little water
Overall it was a fine place, but the shower had so little water coming out of it - it was like a joke. It got hot enough, but it was such a light spray that it was hard to really feel like a shower. Watch out if you try to shampoo or have long hair - I don't see how you'd get the suds out. Also the toilet is crammed between the wall and the sink cabinet, so there's not much room there if you're larger. Overall though the place was fine, but the bathroom wasn't the greatest.

We had a great experience at this property! The breakfast options were quick and plentiful, the rooftop garden seating area was delightful and the staff were friendly and helpful. As with nearly any city, there are areas in downtown where the houseless population can be a bit intimidating. Our host, Carlos, gave us a map with directions to area attractions as well as some advice on areas to avoid. We parked our car the day we arrived and either walked or took the MTS wherever we wanted to go over the next three days with no issues. I would highlight recommend this property as a good location to stay in the downtown San Diego area.

Disliked: Amenities
Located adjacent to major, busy, street. Hear traffic noise, sirens, loud landscape crew with loud equiptment early in the morning 7am. Mal functioning printing machine made it difficult to print airline boarding passes. Walls are paper thin enabling me to hear coughing, snizzing, walking on upper floors. Difficulty sleeping in this enviroment.
