Nice, clean, simple
Generally nice, clean and right in the middle of the Gaslamp District. Thus it can feel noisy at night if you are a light sleeper. Unfortunately the Wifi is intermittent when I was in the room. It only works well when I was near the front desk or the lounge area.

everything was perfect….. except the shower. Loved the staff, the decor, the lounge, convenient location, the little chocolates in my room! The shower experience was rough though. Dribble weak water pressure and it never got hot, not even luke warm. 1 of the 2 I can deal with but the combo was not ideal.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Bunk bed was pretty comfortable. I checked in after 5 pm so I had to take a top bunk which was fun. I slept well, even with my noisy middle of the night room mate. The day rooms are nice and the other travelers were friendly. Bathrooms are good. I love the location and the charm. I liked this place, however I was not traveling with kids or someone that I was trying to impress. I will definitely stay here again.
