    The property is really noisy as people comes and goes in all different times, 1am, 2am, 3am and as there is no isolation, it is really noisy, so you pretty much can't sleep without earplugs but if you are not bothered by it then you will be fine. Quite a lot of homeless people around so if you don't mind all of that, the property is great.

    Property was quite great and spacious. The reception was extremely helpful and nice.

    This wasn't an issue for my stay generally speaking, but the first night I arrived, the guy(s?) across the hall from me were very, very loud and quite belligerent late into the night. Luckily, the location leaves multiple sets of earplugs in your room! Anyway, they were gone the next day, so it ceased to be an issue.

    So much about this stay was great! I arrived outside of office hours, but the manager made it a point to be there for my arrival all the same. The room was lovely, spacious, and very clean. The bed was also incredibly comfortable. Supplying additional amenities (towels, soaps, toothbrush and paste, coffee, tea) was very considerate. Plus it's right by Balboa park, like not even a 10 minute walk, which is lovely!

    There were only 2 floors, but there was no elevator. The staff were more than willing to help me. It is close to the airport, and planes fly over. They provided ear plugs. I did not need them. I slept quite well.

    This was a beautiful studio. It was clean and configurable. It was nicely decorated. It was close to downtown. I would definitely return.

    There was nothing to dislike about this property, but just to make people aware of its proximity to all the attractions. This is a major and indeed beautiful US city so don’t expect everything on your doorstep.

    The property was about 20 minutes walk from the many bars and restaurants in the renowned Gaslamp Quarter. The studio was very clean and fairly spacious and the amenities were of a good standard. Across the road is the beautiful Balboa Park, ideal for anyone with young children. There is some free parking space outside the property as well as across the street and should you need to, you can secure your vehicle in the basement of the complex for a reasonable daily rate. Parking needs to be considered before choosing a hotel closer to the many attractions and this was the main reason for choosing this hotel. You simply won’t get anything free within the Gaslamp area.

    -- Great location: it's right across from the Balboa Park. -- Easy to find free street parking right outside the property. -- Smooth communication with the owner/staff: clear instruction for check-in/out was sent in advance, and they responded to message very quickly. -- Great staff and prompt service: we sent a message regarding 2 minor problems after checking in. Since we arrived on a Saturday afternoon, we really didn't expect quick response. But within 5 minutes, a gentleman showed up and quickly fixed the problems. Very courteous and professional staff.

    We stayed for about a week and ran out of towels and toilet paper (we didn’t ask for any additional ones so they may have been available, but it would be good to have been offered them); also not handicap accessible if that’s something you require.

    Major problems are the location and the service. Location: There is no easy public transportation to the airport, downtown, or the convention center if you are here for work. Nominally there is one bus going downtown but the most convenient stop in downtown is removed so that doesn't help. Also it is a hard to find location without any signs (sorry to say but looks like going out of business soon?) in a sketchy neighborhood. Service: you cannot store luggage and pick it up after 4pm (or indeed if you meet any other problem or need anything after 4pm), which is a major inconvenience. It seemed like an easy problem to solve (e.g. giving guests temporary access to a storage space etc.) but the staff did not seem to care. The only room condiments in the bathroom is one tiny bar soap and uses up quickly. You are left with nothing on day 2 if you don't bring your own.

    Room is spacious
