今回の滞在はPETCO PARKでの野球観戦が主な理由であった。このため、このホテルからPETCO PARKまでは徒歩五分、その点は非常に便利であった。 一方、ホテル内の設備を見ると、湯沸し器などなく、室内での飲食には環境不十分である。できれば電子レンジも欲しい。

They need to lease a parking place for their guest to find a parking was a lil difficult The building itself is cute, too echo. You can hear the people from upstairs walking hard. The bed is too flimsy. Plus the door to enter the tiny room need to be thicker to avoid the talking from the people in the hallway

This was our first stay with a contact-less hotel and we'll definitely do it again based upon this experience. Timely, clear and accurate communications came to my phone. Everything was clean, ordered, and this location was good given the location in downtown San Diego. Parking on a weekend during a Padres game, convention, and bridge run was a bit challenging, but manageable. Great coffee nearby, walking was comfortable, we'd stay here again when visiting nearby friends.

We really liked the location near Gaslamp and the pricing. The room was a little bare-bones, which was expected, but it did lack a trash can for some reason. The sheets could've been more clean. Rita was very responsive to help us check in.

No frills no fuss

Serviceable and convenient, this is a good budget option for those not expecting much in terms of space or luxury. There is no front desk, space is limited, and the facilities are fair, though very clean. The facilities need some repairs; nothing major, but small things. Communicating is a little slow, given the offsite concierge.

Spent one night solo in San Diego and Hotel Gigi was perfect! Clean and modern, basically like new. Door codes were emailed in advance. I had no issues. They left two bottles of water in the room which was nice. I noticed an ironing board, microwave and small refrig in the hallway for those that need it. Very quiet and in a great location. Close to everything in downtown San Diego. I was there for the Elton John concert at Petco Park and was only a several minute walk to the stadium. Would definitely come back!

The hotel itself is tiny. The room was a lot smaller than expected. It’s just a bed and a restroom. No microwave, fridge or iron. No ice machine either. It wasn’t a huge issue for us as we were there just to sleep while there on a weekend getaway .There is no staff on site and our room floor was dirty with dust, as if it hadn’t been swept or mopped in a while. Our key pad number didn’t work, but Rita, the staff on call, handled our situation quickly over the phone which we appreciated. The area is perfect for tourists. You can see Petco from your street and Gaslamp is walking distance. There are numerous restaurants to choose from. Overall, now that I know what to expect from the room, I would definitely stay here again. The location is great. The hotel is nice and quiet. Nobody bothered us. It almost felt like we had the hotel to ourselves. If you’re looking for a hotel with all the amenities, this isn’t your place. If you’re looking for a room to sleep while you’re in town, this place is perfect.

The room was very small, but clean very organized. Check in even though automated was very efficient. We were in room 208 and it has a leaking sink. The walls are very thin and you can hear everything as people walk down the hallway. It was like they were inside your room. In the morning between 730 and 8 o’clock, I don’t know if it was a staff member, but there was somebody going up and down the halls, talking very loud. We go to San Diego often and stay in all different levels of hotels for the price, This was not a value.

I liked the fact that it was so close to the gaslamp district. I did not like the fact that when I originally booked, there was no mention that it was passcode only, and no staffing or desk for help. Their email left a phone number if you need help, but every time I called the voicemail was full. On the first night, the passcode did not work and I had to wait for somebody to exit The hotel so that I could get into my room. There was also an odd smell in my room, which seemed to be like a urine smell.
