Return customer, I have stayed at this hotel quite a few times. Nice, clean, the rooms have everything on my list: fridge, microwave, coffee maker, nice views from the rooms. Walking distance to Little Italy and the restaurants, great staff, the hotel itself is safe and secured. This hotel is an easy drive off the freeway from Front st. with all the one way streets and an easy exit back to the freeway. The only thing that would be a negative is construction noise and the $30 per night parking fee.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service
- Room was spacious - The Inn is very close to Little Italy and other major San Diego landmarks (Seaport, USS Midway, Airport, Zoo, etc.) - The WiFi keeps getting disconnected and we had to keep re-authenticating - The television was old - most modern TVs have Netflix, Prime, Apple TV apps - There seemed to be water issues in the bathroom especially with the shower pressure(very low flow) and the flush - The hotel does not provide water (even extra bottles that we were willing to pay for)
