“From what I gather, the hotel sits in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter, offering a genuine slice of San Diego history alongside modern comforts. The Victorian architecture and uniquely themed rooms really stand out, plus the bar and restaurant, Salt & Whiskey, seems like an experience in itself with its local entertainment. It seems like a solid pick whether you're in town for business or looking to explore local attractions like Petco Park.”

Average Stay at a Historic Location
humming noise thin walls
My experience was mixed. The room's climate control was subpar. I could distinctly hear the air conditioning unit humming through the walls, even after turning it off. It was quite disruptive. I also noticed the absence of proper soundproofing. I could hear the occupants in the adjacent room. Room 430 is not ideal.

Decent Stay with Some Issues
charming room friendly valet small closet noise level
The hotel location was conveniently close to everything. The room was quite charming and very clean. The valet parkers were very friendly too, one in particular was Mathew!
The room had a small closet and wardrobe, both were really old. The room was noisy, unfortunately. We could hear people talking if there was a party in the patio. the noise of people walking through the corridor was loud.

a fairly good place
cozy room food quality ear plug thin window
the rooms are cozy and classy. i liked food at the bar too. i will go back again if my travels take me there.
i wish the hotel would put ear plugs in all the rooms. the historic windows are thin and it is quite noisy. it would be nice with soft light in the bedrooms so one can unwind and try to fall asleep.
