Cute hotel, very 60's.. nice decor. Super comfy beds. Only downfalls were, no elevator. So if you have a heavy suitcase, be prepared to drag it up the stairs. Other thing. They had very limited parking and still charges $20 to park there. Over all it was decent hotel.

This was my second time staying here. Just a satisfied a the first stay.
Check in was easy and the desk clerk was very nice.
The room was very clean.
I like that it is a very small property.
Dinner was good. The breakfast was fresh and light.
Will be making another trip to San Diego in a few months and will be staying here again.

Excellent stay!! The food looked amazing, wish I had time to have a meal but it was a quick trip for me. The cocktail I had was refreshing; the room was lovely. Breakfast was not much but it was great for someone looking for something light and on the healthier side. The overall vibe was chill, just what I needed.
