Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I wouldn't say that the room wasn't the best nor the most luxurious. It's either give or take. The fact it's in Little Italy and within proximity to a Jack in the Box along with a 7-Eleven for affordable fast food and amenities. The fact that the room was clean, there is good Wi-Fi as required for today's age, and the fact I was able to easily reach the Convention Center via public transit for Twitchcon made my stay in San Diego very nice. At the same time, I was able to have easily check in after a long flight from Toronto, ON, Canada. Overall, I wouldn't say it's the best I had. But it is very memorable. Thank you.

The hotel front desk put me right next to the front desk because he was flirting with my girl and trying to keep an eye on her. I thought it was very unprofessional, and I did not care for the way he would smile and talk to her. she even complained to me about it that he was acting weird. She did not feel comfortable.

Staff is nice; property is in good condition; location is outstanding. Rooms are expensive, but rates are comparable to, or a little better than, other hotels in the area. Rooms are a little on the small side.

In a convenient location close to lots of dining. The room felt a little small and it was close quarters to everyone else with thin walls. The parking was kind of a bummer, but it was fine since we only stayed one night.

Enjoyable stay for business purposes. Terrific location with close proximity to Little Italy and restaurants surrounding the piazza. Staff very supportive and friendly. Overall, the facility and rooms quite dated. Clean and functional but very basic.
