The property is charming. The restaurant and rooftop bar are both very nice, and the burgers are amazing. The elevator adds to the overall charm of the hotel but after awhile it becomes a bit inconvenient. Most rooms seem to be generally quite small. There's just enough room for the bed. Lastly, I find $65 for valet parking extremely expensive. I understand that cities typically charge higher prices due to limited space but it just feels like too much. Overall, however, the hotel was in a good location to be near the bars and nightlife, and it did the job for a couple nights a reasonable nightly rate.

overpriced 4 star hotel

We stayed at this hotel for 4 days. Our room was not serviced at all for the entire stay. Beds never done, towels never replaced, tea and coffee never replenished. Worst of all the bed occupied 3/4 of the size of the room.The smallest room of any hotel stay in my life. I would never ever stay here again.

Cute themed hotel. Rooftop bar area nice. Very small room, cramped with large bed. Shower very very small. AC in room very loud and didn't seem to cool well. Street level noise very loud at night. Valet parking option too expensive.

We didn’t have any toilet paper. Our AC wasn’t working. We tried to shower at midnight and the shower knob was loose so it didn’t work.

Cozy and a little noisy.

The place was clean and smaller than expected. The window was broken and staff was notified. It was a little noisy than expected later in the evening. The elevator was challenging with a lot of character. The staff were great (including the valet parking) and the rooftop view is amazing.

The Bed was very comfortable. Everything was tight thou lots of small surfaces (chairs, bathroom vanity and sir tables) my stuff seemed to always fall off. There was just No good place to put my suitcase (carry on size). Plus were not very accessible for charging things, the plugs were behind the bed or open wall with nothing around to set phone or laptop on. Front desk was very very nice. Elevators are slow, but they are historical so I didn’t really mind it was cool to be in history. Also fresh candy bowl made waiting for the elevator nice! Really overall well run hotel and nice things I’d just say it very French with things be on the tight and small side. But great accessible location. Not a hotel u want a car at thou. Expensive parking area!

The staff here are excellent. I received a text before I arrived asking if I had any needs upon arrival. While staying there the staff took care of any requests we had promptly. Rooms are small and the whole place is very retro. The rooftop bar is nice with great views

We stayed on 8th floor and elevator worked once out of the entire trip. Having to climb 8 flights of stairs anytime you want to leave is no joke.

Air conditioning unit was encased in a decorative box with a screen that was filthy. Towels had holes. Hair from previous occupants was stuck to the walls and bathroom doors. Bathroom had no ventilation system except a window, but the window must have been near a kitchen because when we opened it the whole room smelled like a grease trap.

Cute hotel

It was a nice vintage hotel, the elevators are very small and old school, which was nice to experience. However, if you have lots of luggage it’ll be a problem. The rooms are VERY small and the AC is not strong, I would not recommend to stay here during the summer or if you want strong AC

This hotel was such a treat. Was a last minute find on Expedia. The room was perfect for a one night stay cozy but plentiful. I’m sure they have bigger rooms to suit your needs. Had an amazing view of downtown San Diego. Fully stocked mini bar, snacks, and luxury soaps. Room had complementary nespresso as well. The rooftop bar is a must for an amazing vibe and the French Diner also had a great vibe. On top off everything the staff was so friendly and helpful.
