Seriously, the best beds and linens I’ve ever experienced at a hotel—runs laps around many Ritz locations I’ve stayed in. The amenities are few but a great place to stay to get great rest before a conference in San Diego.

The room was clean and very comfortable. The staff was great. I recommend this hotel. My only comment is the neighborhood is very busy and loud. But the hotel was reasonable and very centrally located to sightsee.

There was no parking on site and it was difficult to find parking nearby. The hostess charged me for the wrong amount but did correct it when I came back down to ask about it. Overall staff was nice but for the price there wasn’t a lot of amenities.
