“What struck me most is the hotel's playful spirit; pineapple-shaped treats and quirky decor make it clear that this isn't just another hotel. The Gaslamp location is superb, as is their uncommon embrace of four-legged guests, even allowing them to stay unsupervised-a real boon for owners exploring the city. It's this blend of thoughtful touches and prime location that sets it apart.”

On-site parking wasn't available. I'd pre-arrange parking if you plan to drive. Public transport is a good alternative.

I enjoyed the pineapple-shaped sugar cookies. Plus, the water bottle refill station with still and bubbly water was a nice touch.

They put my dog's name on a welcome board. The door tag saying, 'I am here to rest, please go away' made exploring worry-free.
