Rooms are decent for the price and met our needs. Love how close it is to everything... restaurants, stadium, Gaslamp, and even stores. One of the rooms had a light that wasn't working but staff did come up to fix it. We paid for parking but came back to the hotel late one night and someone else was parked in our assigned space. Thankfully we were allowed to park in the handicap space, otherwise we would of had no where to park.

The pictures the have are completely Bogus. The room stunk and the flooring was coming up in the room, . My daughter had just had surgery and almost fell because of the flooring coming up. It was a horrible place, full of dogs.
