This hotel is super cute, and has done a really good job of preserving its old timey features (elevator, signage). The room is small but for a few days and a couple of carryons it was quite comfortable. The rooms are decorated very nicely too, and I liked that the sink was outside of the bathroom in our room. The rooftop is super pretty and has great views

Cute but not particularly comfortable

This hotel looks cute and there are nice little touches but overall it annoyed me. The rooms are so tiny, there is no place to put your suitcase and the sink is next to the bed. Also the shower is 2x2 feet and you get blasted in the head with water constantly. Built in the 1920’s I get the rooms are small but they don’t feel luxurious in anyway. The ac made horribly loud clicking noises that woke me up. But the worst part was the horrible elevator that you need 4 hands to use. You are forced to hold a heavy door open with one hand, while opening another sliding cage door, all while moving all your luggage without any attendant to assist. It’s awful. They need to get rid of the historic elevator and put a functioning one in asap. Otherwise decor is fun, it’s pretty cheap/good location, and room was ready before check in.

The property has a privileged location in Gaslamp Quarters. We enjoyed our stay and the hotel was lovely and quaint. We did not like the elevators as they are completely impractical and small and that the AC was extremely loud in our room. The room and bathroom were very small, but beautifully decorated. We have mixed feelings about the property but definitely see value in the location and how unique is the stay experience. The staff was very friendly too. We were not fond of the parking situation, but they have valet service.

Beautifully maintained building with its original elevator/lift. A/C could be stronger and easier to use in guest room. And Toilet could use a seat cove in guest room. Beautiful rooftop views and super cute bar downstairs with coffee and pastries. Looking forward to stopping by for brunch in the future!

The property is charming. The restaurant and rooftop bar are both very nice, and the burgers are amazing. The elevator adds to the overall charm of the hotel but after awhile it becomes a bit inconvenient. Most rooms seem to be generally quite small. There's just enough room for the bed. Lastly, I find $65 for valet parking extremely expensive. I understand that cities typically charge higher prices due to limited space but it just feels like too much. Overall, however, the hotel was in a good location to be near the bars and nightlife, and it did the job for a couple nights a reasonable nightly rate.
