Wonderful little gem right outside of Old Town San Diego. While I wouldn't personally walk to Old Town, which is about a 10 min. walk, it is do-able. The hotel is situated near the transit/train center and also the social services building, so there are many homeless folks and you have to walk under the freeway to get to OT. Other than that, we were surprised that this beautiful property has safe parking, is well lit, and the grounds are emaculately kept. The breakfast that is offered is really good too, and free flowing coffee and water are in the lobby at all times.
Our AC was a little loud, but if you don't mind the white noise, it's okay. The staff was super nice and helpful and we will stay here again when we visit SD.
