No one is really there, you enter with codes, you ride the elevator with codes, you get in your room with codes. Outside entry is unlit, at night, a risk. It's next door, or a door up, to a place like a 7/11, full of junkies, folks sprawled on the sidewalk, or standing about, you walk past this, to the dark gate and enter an entry code (suggest you do it quickly!) I would rate it, high risk at night and I'm a big guy. The room seemed like it might be cleaned weekly. The sink is part of the toilet tank. You straddle the toilet bowel, to wash your hands, face. The view, is not like the photos. I rented the better room " "Premier Studio, City View"and my windows looked into a CLOSE adjoining property, I to keep the shades down. I had prepaid my room through Expedia $368.54, for two nights. I have my credit card set, to immediately notify me of a charge. After I checked out, a charge of $801. popped up on my Visa, it took several calls to get them to acknowledge the error/charge. Then a few more to reaffirm it wasn't put on my card. it, by no means, looked like the one in the photo, if there is one like that, it's a bet you'll get it, even though you are paying more, my room was quite small. There is free street parking in the neighborhood, a block away, glad I didn't pay the parking fee (2 hours parking after 10AM, so, just get to your car by noon ;)

Dirty….. everywhere. In need of painting, repair,… “loft bedroom” access was by climbing attic pull down type stairs. 3 separate numbers and instructions to 1)enter building, 2)upon entering elevator and 3)entering room. How about a passkey. No daily service. Poor and above all, the dirtiest hotel I’ve ever been in. Thank god I was by myself because I’d be totally embarrassed if I brought someone.

Large, clean room for the price. Cement floors, soft bed that dipped in the center (could use a better mattress), so not too comfortable. Lots of plugs. Hot water pot boiler was nice. Very easy check in. Need somewhere to hang clothes. Street parking is challenging if you don’t want to pay the hotel parking fee ($25) for one of the few spots on site. Good for a 1 night stay. Excellent value.

Room was clean but the bed needs to be replaced. Little things were not working, like light switches, remotes and refrigerators. It's like the owners just gave up on general updates and simple repairs. Sad because the hotel seems promising because it is close to food, bars and Balboa Park. It wouldn't take much to make this hotel a winner.
