We had a good stay at this hotel. The service was overall good, and the location is excellent—with plenty of nearby attractions and activities to enjoy. The only downside was that parking was a bit challenging. Despite that, we had a wonderful time in San Diego.

Lovely property in walking distance to a ton of great Little Italy restaurants. The room was small but clean and comfortable. Uber pickup is convenient. The street market on the weekend was a nice place to browse and pick up souvenirs. I would stay here again if I’m in San Diego.

Tetiana, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This is the best value in San Diego/ Little Italy area. The staff if wonderful, rooms are clean and great location. You can't beat the value for this accommodation. The hotel is a little dated and rooms small, but since we are only there to sleep and refresh, it suits us perfectly especially for the price. We've been there before and already planning our next visit there. Highly recommend.
