Lobby is cool, staff are helpful. Air conditioning is not sufficient. Rooms have some obvious wear and tear and are close to being outdated. In a good location in the Gaslamp Quarter, but more on the edge than in the thick of it. Restaurants/events are lackluster. Cool once, but not worth the price. You'll likely not use the "all access" amenities.

When we arrived, they didn’t have our room. Literally, a confirmed booking and we show up and no room. They upgraded us to a “huge suite” which was only good because it gave us a room. It was three of us and we needed 2 beds. The suite only had 1. They gave us a portable one that we didn’t use due to size/effort - it looked like a refrigerator with a mattress strapped to it. One of us slept on the couch. They tried to make up for the mistake, which we appreciate but, honestly, all we wanted is what we paid for. The suite didn’t fit our needs functionally. Otherwise, I would expect that we would have been perfectly happy. It’s close to Padres stadium which is why we picked the hotel in the first place.
