Loved being close to trolley station. It made going to and from Petco Park a breeze. We were aware the elevators were going to be under maintenance but didn't know only 1 elevator would be available so be prepared on your day of check out. Parking garage and the spaces were more compact than other garages in area but loved being able to park in a secure garage.

We were there 3 yrs ago and the elevators were old and SLOW. This time they had a full house for the 3 days we were there and finally working on the elevators which actually shut down 1 of 2 elevators, every guest was disgruntled as wait time for elevators were in the 10+ minutes for each ride. They do have stairs but the 5th floor is a climb.

Staff were great and accommodating. Breakfast is good. Commonly used areas were clean but you could see dust in less common used areas. The biggest problem is noise/siren from trolleys right behind the hotel every 15 mins.

Great location, needs improvement

The customer service and room service were great. Decent breakfast. However, the elevator is horrible. We had to wait a while to get down to the garage or our room. There were long lines waiting for the elevator. People were stuck in the garage because people on the 1st floor were piling up, it felt claustrophobic and dangerous. The parking was insane as well, super compact space and hard to park in and out. If you don’t feel comfortable stuck in the garage for more than 15 minutes don’t recommend. Great location and walkable spaces but the elevator and parking needs more support

Sleepless in San Diego

To begin with. The lication basically in front of water was great. The bad thing it's near a train track which i belive it is where the metrolink, amtrak and the san diego trolly's hub is at. I would hear the train go by every 15 minutes which i wasn't able to sleep in.... the elevators were not working properly. 1 maid was a bit rude but the other maid made up for it with her being very friendly and helpful. Upon check in the young lady never told me whic way to go to park my vehicle and how to get into the building or location of elevators. It's ok i can gigure things out

The desk worker went out of his way to make everything perfect. In fact, all parking was used, and he helped us park our car. And ensure our safety when a non occupant was trying to get in the facility.

I liked how close it was to the Little Italy trolley. However, if your room is facing the street of the rail/trolley you'll hear the trains. We arrived pretty late to check in and there was a lack of parking. Parking is super tight and small but you can't beat $40 for the area. There are a lot of homeless at night and when we checked in at night there was a biker that went into the garage looking through things and probably people's cars. The breakfast is nice and they do provide things that you forget.

The location of this hotel is ideal, right in the heart of downtown San Diego and next to its Little Italy. The hotel is across the street from the Maritime Museum and just blocks from the USS Midway Museum. The County Center / Little Italy trolley stop is directly behind the hotel and that is one stop away from a major train depot where other transit is available (Amtrak, etc), making local trips very easy and accessible. We took the Green Line Trolley to/from Petco Park for a baseball game and to the Gaslamp District. The one downside is trains honking throughout the day/evening but that didn't disturb our sleep at all. I was surprised to learn at check-in that there is a $40 per night parking fee in the hotel garage; maybe I missed the fine print in making the reservation. The room was clean and well appointed, though we had a few ants and no nightlight in the bathroom makes nighttime visits jarring for sleepy eyes. I would definitely stay here again, though will consider parking elsewhere if more affordable options are nearby. And I'll bring my own nightlight!

Our stay was great other than the elevators not working. The property is doing renovations and going up and down with only one elevator that only worked sometimes was quite the inconvenience. However, the hotel is in the perfect location! Walking distance from amazing dining, the beach, ferry to Coronado island, and night life/clubs. I would stay there again.
