Cute Boutique Hotel
Cute little boutique hotel in Hillcrest neighborhood. Area appeared safe and had no issues during stay. Great security measures in place in a gated building. Rooms were small but adequate for their purpose. Only complaint was the small ackward bathroom set up in the units i stayed in. Would definitely consider this property again with a future stay in San Diego.

This loft was awesome, exactly what we needed for us and our friends (two couples). Two separate rooms/bathrooms made it private but there’s a shared space to chill with your friends. It was clean, modern and inviting. Would love to stay again!

Great property in the best neighborhood! I am a solo traveler. My room had a curtain over the shower and toilet ( no wall) which was fine by me but maybe not for groups. The restaurant downstairs was amazing and all of the staff was so wonderful

Property was close to everything. Property was clean. However, elevator broke Friday night and climbing 5 flights of stairs was not ideal. Made the stay a lot less desirable specially when parking was not close by.

Super cute little lobby area and record store. The concept of the rooms is really fun. I can see how great it is when it was at it's full potential. However, our room smelled of wet towel and the carpet and couch seemed really dirty, didn't dare to sit on the couch or walk around without shoes. The bed was super comfy. Small but comfy. Cute little setup, just needed a good scrub/deep clean to feel comfortable.

Stay Away
Do not recommend this facility. The area is littered with trash, homeless people and vagrant types. The entrance area is filthy as well. I booked a “Premier Studio with CityView” the room they gave me was a split studio with no city view. The check in staff were rude and are now refusing to refund me a portion of the room cost. The room I was in was dirty, lamps didn't work and lock on door did not function as advertised. I was on a very tight family schedule and had little time until I came back to Nevada to address the issues. I feel a bait and switch occurred and will never stay or recommend this “hotel”

Loved the room and building, looks can be decieving. The room looked like a updted studio and eco friendly bathroom, toilet was a little new cause i had to figure out how to turn off the sink, which it turns off automatically. Area is good walking distance to a lot of things on Hillcrest. Only thing was the bums fighting at night and hanging round the 7/11 on the corner, but it was a great stay nonetheless.
