Probably one of my worst hotel experiences to date. Upon check in I was put into a room where people already were. Toilet seat wasn't properly attached to the toilet. The noise from the clubs on the street was beyond excessive - to the point that it was literally shaking things in the room. I wouldn't recommend this spot to folks who want any kind of rest.

AC hotel was great, small, cozy, clean and friendly. Valet is expensive, $58 and takes for ever to get the car, almost 25 mins!

If you are looking for nightlife this property could not be more amazing! came for my boyfriends birthday to have a nice dinner and get some drinks afterwards at local bars. I'm telling you we walked out these property doors and straight across is two very nice bars and just couple steps to right or left are some of San Diego's most famous spots for nightlife! Mexican restaurant next door was pretty good! but overall room was very nice and cozy. biggest thing for me is the rooms being clean, and these were very very clean! also the gym still smell's brand new and have some really nice new machines! valet is pretty pricey especially for being actual guest at the hotel, but overall would love to come back for summertime to actually use their pool!

Hotel is in a prime location right in the center of gaslamp. As you walk out of the hotel you’re already in the party zone. Hotel was great. Valet parking only and who knows where they park your car. Night staff was a little hostile, when we approached and realized we forgot our key. Other than that everything was great!

Quartier central mais très animé!

AC Hotel est situé dans un quartier très animé et très bruyant. Malgré le fait que notre chambre était à l’étage le plus haut, le bruit était très fort, nous obligeant à porter des bouchons pour dormir. Les chambres sont très peu insonorisés on entendait les gens parler dans le corridor. La chambre offrait une bonne literie et le Wifi était rapide.
