Perfect stay. I knew it was going to be noisy because I saw lots of complaints but we didn’t mind it at all. You’re in the middle of the Gaslamp Quarter for such a good price! It will be busy. It works best for people that are actually going out and enjoying the busyness of the street. I appreciate the free breakfast but I would recommend having additional options for different diets such as non-dairy creamers.

It’s ok for what it is. You have to make your own bed and some of the mattresses have weird stains on them.

I enjoyed staying in a private bedroom here. A bathroom/shower was always available when I needed one. I appreciated the friendliness of the staff and the art in the hallways. Super convenient location, especially if you are attending something at the convention center. Great budget choice of accommodations.

This stay was very reasonably priced. The room was comfortable, and I felt safe in the building. I loved the location for being in walking distance to the convention center and so many nice restaurants and shops. I loved the art and the convenience of the kitchen, too. The only drawback is that it is an exceptionally noisy neighborhood. Since my small ears reject ear plugs, I was subjected to the music and general ruckus of the street below until well after 2 AM, no matter the day of the week.
