Great price for the location: parking is a bit tight but nothing terrible. Hotel was definitely very safe—only way to access anything besides the lobby is with a keycard! Only issue was when I booked through Expedia it had the hotel listed as breakfast provided—there is even a sign in the elevator showing “Breakfast Provided” but it is misleading, borderline a lie. The breakfast is available at the very pricey restaurant adjacent to the hotel with a 10% discount. Almost $20 for three pancakes is outrageous in my opinion even in a downtown restaurant of a major city. Ended up having to spend more money than planned because of having to pay for breakfast (not at the restaurant because as I said those prices were unbelievable.) Overall very good experience, nice pool, fantastic location near pretty much everything you could need for a great trip to SD!

This hotel was very close to the sante fe depot station and within walkable distance of little italy so it was a perfect location. parking on the property was an extra charge but the parking garage was very convenient to have and easy in and out access throughout the day.
