I wouldn't say that the room wasn't the best nor the most luxurious. It's either give or take. The fact it's in Little Italy and within proximity to a Jack in the Box along with a 7-Eleven for affordable fast food and amenities. The fact that the room was clean, there is good Wi-Fi as required for today's age, and the fact I was able to easily reach the Convention Center via public transit for Twitchcon made my stay in San Diego very nice. At the same time, I was able to have easily check in after a long flight from Toronto, ON, Canada. Overall, I wouldn't say it's the best I had. But it is very memorable. Thank you.

The hotel front desk put me right next to the front desk because he was flirting with my girl and trying to keep an eye on her. I thought it was very unprofessional, and I did not care for the way he would smile and talk to her. she even complained to me about it that he was acting weird. She did not feel comfortable.

The staff was absolutely lovely and very helpful the entire length of our stay. The room was clean, cute & very comfortable. We could not have picked a better spot, staying around the corner from the main plaza in Little Italy was the perfect vibe for a romantic trip, not to mention a short walk to the trolley station which made getting around a breeze. We did not partake in the free breakfast, because we found an espresso bar the first morning that stole our hearts, but it looked decent if you're trying to not buy every meal! I would 10/10 recommend Urban Boutique to anyone staying in Downtown SD.
