Great hotel. Will stay again!
Only issue i had was Valet. They didn't seem to have a good system. Had to ask several times if they were getting the car. And the final time I asked they didnt know whether they had pulled the car up yet.

Beautiful historic and vintage hotel
Came here for our anniversary and absolutely loved the hotel. It’s historic and located in the middle of everything. We were easily able to walk to the restaurants, bars and convenient stores and loved being able to pop by our room when we needed to. It’s a stunning and charming hotel and we loved the rooftop during sunset. Everyone was kind and we would love to come back. The only thing that was difficult was the historic elevators, that while cool took a very long time to wait for which was a bummer as we had luggage and were on the 8th floor so we often took it to go up. Also the room had no view which we were bummed about as it’s located in such a stunning area. Despite this we plan to come back and stay again as we loved the hotel.

Just say no to Pali SD
Lobby is nice. Service is as expected. Rooms are terribly tiny. Bathroom worse. Worse than Tokyo or NYC. No closet. Elevator horror show. Vintage which means one out of service. Original doors impossible to operate. Dangerous. Very slow. Even smaller. Ten minute wait each time. We will not stay at a Pali hotel after this.

Below expectations
Hotel is nice but old (historic) but not up kept. The lobby and restaurant downstairs were remodeled nicely with a nautical theme but that’s about it. The elevator is old school, with the steel cage that you have to pull back to go in and only one was working this weekend so we opted for stairs. The rooms are small, noise insulation is minimal - you can hear the loud music/voices from the Gaslamp district, when people shower, and the hum of the motor from the mini fridge is annoying too. Service at the front desk was slow. When we first got there we were ignored for a good 5 minutes - so we’re just standing around awkwardly until one of the three front desk people (who were “busy” typing away in the empty lobby) looked up. Overall not impressed with the hotel. Only good thing was right next door to the American Comedy Co (came to town for a show).

Very Pleasant Experience
The staff was very friendly and helpful. I enjoyed the brief conversation with a staff member’s about the history of the building. I will be staying here again on my next visit to San Diego.

Charming Historic Hotel
This is a charming historic hotel. With original elevator's dating to 1913. It was very clean, the restaurant was good, the staff was excellent. My only complaint is the window air conditioning unit. It was noisy when cycling on and off. I was in town for business and had early morning meetings, which is not fun when you don't sleep well.
