Everything literally. The rooms were amazing, the free water at the lobby and bottles in the room, coffee machine, the beds were comfy and big, just amazing. Staff were extremely friendly in particularly the lady who checked me in and took note of my request for a room with a view that I left online booking.com. I thought that was very thoughtful as I had mentioned it was my first time in America. I forgot to ask her name , lady Mexican American with black glasses 🤓 super friendly, thank you for also giving us so tips on where to go.

It was an amazing stay. The hotel and the room was spotless clean. Very friendly staff. The hotel is in the buzzy Gaslamp Quarter. The cherry on the top was the opportunity to borrow guitars. We only wished we stayed longer!

Great location in Little Italy, with many nearby restaurants, cafes and wine bars. The staff was very helpful, the room clean, and the bed comfortable. We had a tremendous dinner at a local Italian restaurant. And as a surprise bonus, on Saturday we woke up to a farmers' market on the street right outside our hotel: five blocks of crafts, fresh produce and delicious baked goods. We will return soon.
