Nice hotel in the heart of little Italy! Bed was comfy, decent water pressure, and about a 15 min walk from all the places you’d want to visit in DT SD. Would definitely recommend.

We absolutely enjoy staying at Urban Boutique in Little Italy! It’s convenient to all the festive activities including the Farmers Market wall of the amazing restaurants in the immediate area! Conveniently located within walking distance to the Embarcadero/waterfront and a block away from the Trolley tours stop,

It was simple, but cute and super close and central to lots of places to walk to including public transportation. Staff was friendly and we had a really visit. My wife and I would recommend especially if you are looking for a place where you can get around without a car. It's also only about 10 minutes from the airport.

Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The Hotel is a block away from Little Italy in San Diego, so location is fantastic. There is also a British Pub on the corner, handy for a quick beer after a great Italian meal. Parking can be an issue, so plan ahead. I have a Handicap Sticker and found handicap parking close to the hotel. We will be back.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed here for three nights and definitely enjoyed it. The room was just a basic size hotel room but it’s all we needed. It was clean and had ac and the bed was comfortable. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel is in the middle of Little Italy and walkable to so many restaurants, the trolley and the waterfront. Not to mention the farmers market is half a block away. Although it is not a “fancy” hotel I would recommend of you want to be in the thick of Little Italy.
