Steven, Plymouth

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Tried to get an early check in- waited 4 hours and at normal check in rooms magically became available. Staff was rude and spent more time gossiping than working- you see a lot sitting in a lobby for 4 hours. Room was decent but way overboard on the mini bar junk- fridge and countertop full of $11 water and $30 screw top Chardonnay. If they just acted like guests were a priority it would have been a better stay. Not into giving second chances anymore as there are too many outstanding innkeepers in the area.

This was my second time staying here and I absolutely love it. The staff is amazing and the rooms are nice. The location is right in Gaslamp so there is no need to drive anywhere. It is near good restaurants and bars. I will continue to stay here anytime I am visiting.

Booked a suite, it was spacious, had a balcony with a nice view, super close to Petco Park where I went for an event. Can’t give it 5 stars because the suite didn’t have a fridge, the couch in my room needs replacing and I’m not a fan of their bathroom/shower set up. It’s a cool place though, bed was comfy, I enjoyed looking at some of the memorabilia they have in the lobby. Staff was friendly.

First time at a Hard Rock hotel, probably the last
We stayed there for 4 days for an international conference and chose Hard Rock hotel due to proximity to the convention center. The hotel itself was quiet, sleek and modern. Unfortunately, our room was cleaned once despite asking for dally services. Front desk was quick and professional but the valet people were gruff and impertinent. My simple question to ask for their street address seemed to be an imposition. Nobu is closed for lunch and opens 530 which was too late for our purposes, so we missed out. We usually stay at other chains because of frequent flyer etc, but thought of availing of something novel. In the end, it was not special or worth the extra expense.

Hotel is very trendy and located right off the main path, but close enough to reach everything. Renting a guitar to play in my room or a record player with vinyls is the coolest thig ever! I have stayed here before and will return again.
