I’ve stayed in Palihotels before so despite the reviews I wanted to try it myself. Before I even got to my room I was stuck on the elevator…the doors on the vintage lift are super heavy and only one elevator was working so it was a wait every time (it wouldn’t be bad if I wasn’t on the 9th floor) the queen hotel room is extremely tiny, you can’t even open your luggage without it hitting the wall, but didn’t matter as much bc I unpacked and was able to tuck my luggage next to the AC. Apart from that staff is great, restaurant/bar was too as well as the food. Just be aware if you’ve stayed at Palihotels before this one is more on the smaller side.

Hotel was nice. Room were clean and the size were relevant to the hotel. The only reason I’m not providing 5 stars is because the hotel only has two elevators, though they’re historic and operate like they did back in 1913, minus the elevator man…. Haha one of the elevators was none operational. Hopefully this issues gets fixed ASAP.

Check in/out was easy. Staff was friendly. Had issues with the getting the AC working at first and the engineer came within 15-20 minutes to fix it. The rooms are small but you’re really just there to sleep and shower so it’s okay. The elevators were very vintage and had to wait a few minutes. There’s a cafe/restaurant at the hotel that my friends said had good drinks and coffee. If you’re looking for a central place in gaslamp to stay, this is it. One block away from tacos el gordo and the coin op!
