we were unaware that our room had NO Windows! clean room but oddly shaped. very small closet, nice bathroom, full size bed, but just odd there was no windows, and no warning our room had no windows. when we called the front desk they informed us they were all sold out and could not accommodate us with another room. nor offered any other compensation for NO communication that we'd be, what we gathered, our room was a converted broom closet before made into a room.

neat place

cool old building with marble everywhere and fine woodwork on all entries. Quick and easy access to Gaslamp and 5th shops or ballpark, homelessness abounds in neighborhood but not unsafe. Room was basic, great base but not great to “hang out” in…
