This was a pre-cruise overnight stay. We were on 7th floor facing the water and can see our cruise ship docked in the morning. Good view, very close to Little Italy strip.

Great hotel
Hotel was great. Great location walking distance to Little Italy. Starbucks on corner which was nice and convenient. Fast and easy check in. No elevator in the parking structure, but it was not a big deal. Would definitely stay again.

We loved everything about this hotel. The staff were so friendly and helpful. They shared several recommendations which were all great. The location is perfect - walkable to the Harbor, Little Italy, and the Gaslamp District. Also, close to so many other places and things to do, as well. The room was very clean and spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was perfect and hit the spot. Highly recommend.

The location is unbeatable. Being adjacent to the Little Italy neighbourhood, there is no shortage of good eateries within walking distance. Also within strollable distance from the Maritime museum on the waterfront. Generally safe area to walk in but like in most large city downtown areas, you just need a little common sense to stay safe.

I had a nice stay there. Def recommend! The location was great, and my ocean view room had a beautiful view! However, my room was separated from the neighboring room by a door, which wasn’t ideal since I could hear them talking. Fortunately, they were pretty quiet lol! I also think the breakfast could be improved. There aren’t many options, and the portions are more snack-sized than meal-sized.

First time stay in downtown San Diego
Had to find a hotel near downtown due to a wedding we needed to attend. Found this hotel at a reasonable price which was only two blocks away from the venue. Rooms were clean and nice. Our stay was a short 2 nights and was very satisfied with the hotel. Love the morning bag breakfast and my kids loved having a coffee/hot chocolate machine down in the lobby.
