Great location, spacious and clean bathrooms. Nice kitchen and laundry. Stylish decorations.
The downstair street can be noisy. Live music at 12am.
8 / 10Excellent·Sep 2026
I liked that there were a lot of restrooms on the floor. I liked that it was so clean. Well maintained. Everybody was respectful, both staff and guests. Not noisy. Very accommodating. Great location.
AC was hooked up directly into the window and was just regenerating the air from the street. It was working loudly day and night. Cold mode was not working well, so it was never cool in the room, and the week of my stay was super hot in San D.

Filtered water in common space
Across from a nightclub, so it’s really loud even if earplugs in and over ear headphones.
