The staff was amazing!!! Our room ended up being smaller than we expected and the staff was super friendly and willing to help us out and offer us a bigger room. It’s the perfect location with so many option right when you walk out of the hotel. The streets are full of people and they close the streets to allow people to walk around and it feels super safe. Would highly recommend and definitely stay here again!

Amazing option for Gaslamp
Upon arrival staff was extremely friendly. Let me know of my parking options and checked us in without any hassle. Room was extremely clean. We did not need to take any Ubers for the night since this hotel was located walking distance from Gaslamp downtown. They have a beautiful rooftop area and the hotel was very quiet and spacious for an overnight stay. God sent that they have a little wet bar with a wine opener and glasses (since I came unprepared) I would stay here again!
