Size doesn't matter

Hotel was great, we had a corner room with a city view. Although small the room was nicely furnished and very comfortable. The happy hour Sangria at Currant was excellent!!

Good location, but small room for a Cali hotel

located in downtown SD, this historical hotel features a boutique style (as you can probably see in big cities, i.e. NYC), with traditional outfit. Personally the concierge service and check-in were satisfactory. The small room was a bit disappointing, even though I usually don't mind the size of room. The shower booth was literally 1 foot from the door, and the width of entrance was about 2 feet. However, bed linens and other utilities were very good in condition. The interior design was also quite up-to-date, like its modern facade. If you're with family, I would recommend to get a bigger room. Mine was the 1 queen size bed one (probably smallest).

The staff was efficient and helpful--they rapdily moved me to another room when the T.V. in the first room didn't work well. In fact, a front desk people actually did the move. But the standard rooms are pretty small. Well located in downtown, across the street from the federal court house. Need to overlook homeless problem downtown(people sleeping on sidewalk --at locations other than near the hotel); it's a city problem and not a problem with hotel. I would stay again if needed to do business at courthouse again. The price was right.

Great room for the money

Updated interior decor to contemporary very nice. Hotel staff very accomodating. Rooms slightly small but all amenities included. No pool. Great location.

Shower

I love the sleek design of the shower, but having only a half wall for a shower door is not practical. My belongings got wet.

Great room, great hotel, great location

This hotel, built in the 1920s, was upgraded beautifully. The decor in the room was fresh with a comfortable bed. The rest of the hotel was decorated perfectly, with that old-world charm still left in places. It is a beautiful building from the outside, really standing out among all the modern office buildings. The location was perfect: close to the Gaslamp District and close to the water. We walked or rode the bus everywhere! The only complaint I would have is there are quite a few bums in the area. The staff was excellent, with great restaurant suggestions and direction on how to get around the city. We will definitely stay there again if we return to San Diego.

Excellent Hotel

The hotel was overall very nice, including free in-room wired internet and nice furnishings. My only real complaint is that the shower does not have a door on it, which can get the bathroom floor a little wet.

Great Location

Great Location for the price.

workout room is weak

Wrokout room is less than desirable ... bumping elbows with sweaty people its so small.

sofia

As with everyone else, the room was small with modern furniture and comfortable bed. the service was ok...noting that there were no issues to report neither good nor bad..just ok. the hotel was located in a prime location, walking distance to the gaslamp, mall, cruise ships local eateries. parking was a bit hefty, if you dont mind leaving your car in an open parking lot..on broadway and pacific, theres 5star parking for 20/day wheres as valet is 28/32 i guess depending when you go. hope this helps. overall, i would stay there again.

Cute Boutique Hotel

I really like the charm and "boutique" feel of the hotel. Not a big chain-type but more personal and stylish. The room was very comfortable, although definitely on the smaller side (which I did not mind, but is worth noting). Found the fitness gym to be well equipped although a little cramped--a lot of equipment (which is good), but not a lot of room. Only drawback was that is was further from the convention center than I had anticipated. Front desk said a 20 minute walk. There is a convenient trolley you can take, however, which runs fairly frequently.
