Weekend Getaway to the Gaslamp Dist.
My second stay with The Horton Grand. We were in town for a birthday and they helped me make it a memorable stay for the birthday girl. Accommodating for early checkin when called in advance. It is an older but still beautiful hotel rooms are a little dated but that goes along with the rest of the place which we liked. Enjoyed that we had a balcony to enjoy the lovely San Diego night air. Room did have a I’d say musty smell to it when we got in aired it out and was good to go for the evening.

Cool hotel in the gaslamp district. Bar was nice, loads of bar fly's though. When I arrived there was no power (for the whole near by 7 blocks) front of house were great, helpful and we're very professional and friendly despite the obvious pressure of having no electricity.

Seems like an older hotel, needs some upgrading, but overall cleanliness was good. Wouldn’t stay there again. For the price definitely could get better
