I would not recommend this place to any family and friends. It is family owned so the whole family lives on the premises. Its not a bed and breakfast so wasn't expecting to check out with the whole family in their pajamas walking around the lobby.

This place is very cute! It's not your typical hotel. It was a built in the 1930s, so the rooms and bathrooms are smaller and the hallways narrow. It is clean, quiet, and the front desk was very nice. The only thing we can remotely complain about is when they are full, the parking lot is a tight squeeze, but that is to be expected in Chula Vista so it has nothing to do with how great this place is! My partner and I will definitely be staying there again when we go visit our friends. Thank you!!!

Was not allowed to stay because I have a small 4 pound dog. Maybe in small fine print there was something stating no dogs but I didn’t see it. They need to make it more visible. Got there with it being 100 degrees outside and was sent away. Not dog or pet friendly at all. 100 dollars non refundable for nothing and left in the sun to search for another place. Found a better place for cheaper but what a loss. Make your rules and regulations more visable…

We did not have a lot of interaction with the staff. However, when we did it was pleasant. The property was an older property which was nice not a big 100 room (all the same) place but it was showing its age a little. I would stay again based on location and everything being walkable.

It is a historic 1930s hotel, so rooms and bathrooms are small. However the owner of as very welcoming and everything was clean! It was a little expensive but we booked last minute, and we were happy.

This is a wonderful place to stay in Chula Vista. You are just down the street from many restaurants and shops (easy to walk to) and the hotel is wonderful. The owners were excellent and the rooms were adorable. I loved the historic nature of this hotel and would definitely stay again when I'm in the area.
