Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This hotel blew my expectations, absolutely loved their modern touches and it was amazing to get to. 10 minutes from Old town, 7-8 minutes from Gaslamp, 5 minutes from Little Italy. You cannot go wrong! We will be back. I do have to say, I did not like the gym options; I wish we were able to have the gym for hotel guests only. It was disappointing to share it with others that pay membership. Overall, this hotel was great!

The location is great. The only downside is it is on a busy street and can be a problem pulling up to valet or check-in. Rooms are upgraded and nicely decorated. I would have appreciated a warning when I checked in that they would be conducting a fire alarm test during my stay. I was trying to conduct business and it went on for more than an hour.
