Kitchen has basic equipment only. The solo rooms are in a separate building that can be warm, but there is AC, as well as a ceiling fan.

Nice and clean hotel, very kind and helpful staff.

The shower didn’t drain.

I solo traveled! So it was very cozy in there, perfect size for 1 person.

No parking could be an issue for some. The rooms are small but for it makes sense considering the price.

I really like the location of this hotel, the area is pretty quiet and right next to Balboa. Has some good options to eat as well.

Booking.com did not communicate vital information I needed to access the property after hours!

Stephanie at the front desk is an exceptional human! I will go again just to see her.

Room was pretty basic - not even a sink in the bathroom. Very few amenities. We just did an overnight so it met our needs.

Location was great. And the beds were the most comfortable ever.

Small rooms

Good location, next to the gaslamp next to little Italy. Was a perfect spot.

The room size was smaller than expected

The location is great and price is good. It’s a remodeled old building so the rooms are small but nice.

Too much noise from outside my window. YOu can hear the plans and buses go by but It didn't really bother me all that much.

The room was nicely clean and spacious for the value. Great staff and very helpful.

The placement of the restroom sink and mirror was a bit inconvenient when washing your face/ brushing your teeth.

Great staff, clean room, aesthetically pleasing hall. It has everything you need for a stay.

Not that I did not like, just a heads up. Only street parking but I never had an issue finding. No elevator, but only a few stories. If you can’t do stairs, make sure you ask for 1st floor when booking. It is only the edge of Hillcrest and Downtown neighborhoods, so it is a few blocks walking distance to walking areas. Just need to be city smart. I really liked this property and all it offered.

Very convenient to Hillcrest, Downtown and Boba Park. Boutique feel. Nice clean updated room with kitchenette and private bath (room 228). Affordable. Friendly staff. Secure.

No electric plugs near the bed was my only inconvenience. Staff are not available all the time but, I was able to communicate through Booking messages which was convenient.

Very friendly and helpful staff. I was able to keep my bag way past checkout and I really appreciated that I didn’t have to carry it with me everywhere I went. Location was very convenient and the price was good considering all the options. Pretty safe. Cute room. Water available at the lobby. Staff always picked the phone up and were helpful.

Was a bit noisy and worth noting that it is under the main flight path so bring earplugs. Bit of a walk to get anywhere

Nice stay, comfortable room, staff were friendly

I loved this little hotel, its an old hotel with old fashioned architecture but entirely newly renovated and decorated.

No blow dryer, no a/c

Great location close to the airport and right next to Balboa Park. Really nice, spacious, and comfortable room.

There is no elevator, so if your room is located on the upper floor, you have to climb stairs.

Location of the hotel is great: very close to Balboa Park with its zoo and many museums. Also only a 10-20 minute walk to the city center (Gaslamp quarter etc.) with many attractions around. I found the hotel itself to be nicer than the online appearance suggested. Initially, I was a bit worried because the hotel changed names after I booked it. But on-site, I learned that another company bought the hotel and they wanted to change the name into something that matches the location better, which makes sense.

The walls are thin, so you can hear the noise from the corridors. Little Italy is right underneath the flight path to the international airport, so expect noise from planes coming in to land after 6am and until 10pm. The room could have used a lockbox for storing valuables.

Amazing value for the location in Little Italy. Steps away from Balboa park and half an hour walk to the shore front. Close to the airport by public transit. The room had small fridge, kitchen sink, kitchen cabinets, a TV, some shelving with a coat rack, and an attached bathroom with a shower. The bed was clean and comfortable. Great for solo or thrifty travelers. The staff was by far the most helpful and friendliest of any hotel I’d stayed at.

Stephanie at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. She gave us a list of recommendations that were excellent! We really felt welcome there. It was very clean and comfortable as well as having cute decor!

The area (not only this hotel) is near the landing path to the Airport. There are aircraft noises that can be a disruption to a peaceful environment.

The customer service is A plus. The coin-operated laundry was very handy. The interior design and makeover are commendable.

The room is not soundproof enough that you can always hear outside and neighbors Watchout the homeless, although it have nothing to do with the hotel itself

Super friendly staffs They basically have everything you needed in the room (microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker, paper towels, even plates and mugs) The location is also pretty nice too, near the BalboaPpark, Little Italy and downtown area

The neighbourhood is a bit shady. Didn't dare to go out on my own after dark.

Nice room. Very helpful and friendly hostess, Stephanie! Walking distance from Little Italy.
