Cozy Fireplace Escape

My room featured a charming gas fireplace that not only added warmth but truly transformed the ambiance into a cozy retreat. It was perfect for those chilly evenings in San Diego, and I loved relaxing by the fire after a long day exploring. Definitely a highlight of my stay!

Good Bar Experience

I had a fantastic evening at the Salt and Whiskey bar. The cocktails were expertly crafted, and the bartender was knowledgeable about the menu. It was a great place to unwind with friends, and the lively atmosphere made for a perfect night out.

Spacious Lounge Area

I truly enjoyed the expansive lounge area in my suite. It had a comfy sitting arrangement and a kitchenette, making it feel like a home away from home. The additional space allowed us to enjoy meals together and relax comfortably during our stay.

Impressive Shower Space

The bathroom in my room was beautifully tiled with an excellent shower pressure that made for an invigorating wash each morning. I appreciated the clean and modern fixtures, making it a pleasant space to start my day.

7.2/10

The hotel is located right in the heart of the Gaslamp District, making it super convenient for exploring the area. While the ambiance is charming and filled with historical elements, the noise levels from both the street and neighbors can be quite disruptive. Rooms are spacious, but unfortunately, mine faced the courtyard which didn't provide natural sunlight. Overall, it has decent value for money considering its location, but improvements in sound insulation are definitely needed.

Dining options were okay but could use more variety; the food was decent but not standout.
