I cannot recommend this hotel. This hotel needs to be renovated. I was surprised to see the broken tiles in the elevator. The room had old drapes, the towels were rough, the mini fridge wobbly, etc. the only good thing I could say about this hotel is that they have free Netflix. Thank goodness we only booked for one night. I will stay somewhere else next time.

Place has both good points and some not so good. Location, included parking and price are good. Tv was terrible and we had to go ask for both soap and a drinking glass.

as advertised

It was a cute inn. I love how it was next to little Italy so I was able to get all the food I want or a quick walk to the pier. Only downside was noise was louder than expected from traffic, people, and planes. And the other was water pressure.

I had a great experience and very convenient location. If you plan to stay in the area of little Italy it is a great spot allowing you to walk to most locations. It was much affordable compared to other locations but I will say you get what you pay for. This is a hotel for just needing a place to sleep and that’s it. Rooms were decent with a faint smell of cigarettes. Was easy to mask with a coupe of sprays of perfume. Not a great spot if you are bringing tons of luggage. The elevator is tiny only fits two people with one big suitcase. Also parking it very limited and may have to find street parking. Over all great for the price and would not mind staying again.

Was a nice stay over all.

Our stay over all was good. The rooms are a bit small but was clean. The bed was comfortable and the water pressure was good. This was a decent stay for us but I dont know if it would be good for a family. Since the rooms were a bit tight.

This is the perfect place for night or two in little italy, San Diego. Free parking and one block above the main strip. Place is older but was very clean. No breakfast or coffee but with all the restaurants and italian cafes within walking distances you wont miss it. Great value for the location. We will go back.
