"The hotel room was average, and only a few of the electrical outlets worked. Limited counter space in the bathroom. Not enough toilet paper provided. On the bright side, the location was great, the pool area was nice, and the outdoor bellman was extremely helpful and kind.2017-05-17"
"Terrific location. The mattresses were terrible; I could hear the springs popping, and if I sat on the edge of the bed, I'd roll off. The hotel clerks were never helpful when I asked a question, but the bellhops and valets were excellent. Parking fees were ridiculous.2015-08-12"
"Good place to stay. The hotel staff was friendly, and the breakfast buffet was excellent.2018-10-06"
"My only complaint was that there was no trash can in the living area of the hotel room.2017-04-03"
"I called the hotel clerk about getting ice and was told to take the bucket for the ice maker in the fridge to the bar and they'd fill it with ice. On my way down, a maintenance worker offered to take care of it for me, and even came to the room and showed me how to turn on the ice maker in the fridge.2015-11-17"
"Seemed overpriced for the quality. I could hear people in the room next to mine. No toiletries provided. Don't recommend. There are nicer hotels for the same price.2015-10-06"
"Located in a very popular tourist area, so if you want quiet, ask for a room near the back of the building. Our room was compact, but extremely comfortable and well thought out. It was perfect for a solo traveler or a couple not planning to spend much time at the hotel.2016-05-17"
"We found blood stains on the bedsheets after we'd gone to bed. Not a good hotel stay.2018-07-09"
"Good location, but not a good hotel stay. No fridge or microwave in the room. Internet access cost $18 for the night, and parking cost $35. 2015-09-23"
"I liked the location. My room wasn't as clean as it should have been, and had some fruit flies living in it. I wouldn't stay at this hotel again.2015-03-19"
"The hotel was old. The room was small and had an old window AC and steam radiator. The shower was small and there was no hot water. At least the bed was fine. The elevator was gated. Friendly staff. Next time I'll pay a little more and stay at a better place.2019-09-28"
"The wireless Internet didn't work in my hotel room. The elevator was difficult to use. Find another place to stay.2017-09-12"
"Old hotel. AC was noisy and didn't cool the room. It was replaced the last day of our stay, but that just left dust hovering in the room. Bathroom was dated and had poor lighting. The shower was too small, and the fan was too loud. Good housekeeping, though. Elevator door was hard to open. Brian's Restaurant staff wasn't friendly. Don't stay here.2015-02-18"
"The hotel was convenient and high quality. Nice, spacious room with a comfortable, clean bed. Exceptional pool and workout room. The restaurant was great, and there were other restaurants within walking distance.2016-08-07"
"Great downtown location. The hotel was quiet, and the employees were nice and helpful.2019-08-05"
"The hotel was close to everything in Gaslamp and downtown. Walk to the convention center and other attractions. The staff was attentive and helpful.2018-11-12"
"Don't waste your money. The hotel room was small, the curtains wouldn't close all the way, and the phone didn't work. Poor service, too. Won't stay again.2015-06-08"
"The hotel room was a bit small and had a view of the room, but it was elegant and comfortable. I appreciated getting a room far from the noisy elevator, but I was a bit nervous about being right by the staircase.2018-10-27"

"The hotel was old and pricey. Shop around for a better option.2019-04-18"
"Located downtown, with lots to do in within walking distance. The hotel room was nice, clean, and had a great view. The only negatives were the $40 parking fee and $20 facility fee.2018-01-11"
"Wonderful hotel. I especially loved the fresh flowers all over; the aroma was intoxicating. Great staff; they even sent off a FedEx box for me. The $36 parking fee was steep.2015-09-21"
"Clean room and friendly, helpful staff. Stay at this hotel.2018-06-08"
"In the heart of the Gaslight District, so there was easy access to restaurants and stores. Seemed expensive for the size and view. Our room was the size of a postage stamp, and it was noisy since it faced the street. Our "city view" was of a tall office building. The hotel lobby had dim lighting.2015-04-26"
"The hotel was under construction, and I woke at 7 AM to a the sound of a jackhammer on the other side of the bedroom wall. No fridge in the room. I was given a handicap room, and the shower flooded the bathroom floor. The exercise room in my garage is better than the one at this hotel, and it was too warm. No on-site restaurant, and the bartender in the small lounge overcharged me. Not a 4-star hotel; be prepared for a 2-star experience.2016-12-26"
"The hotel room was clean and spacious. Great stay.2015-05-27"

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
