Extremely disappointing. Room not cleaned every day. Old 19 year furniture.
Pros:

Gaslamp District

Cons:

Motel 6 service. Furniture hasn’t been changed since 2007. TV not working in the living room. Advertised for upgrade, but was never upgraded. Pool not acceptable to kids all weekend. Was not told about it. Great location is the only thing on point about this hotel. Had to ask to clean the room twice. Last day it was never cleaned and taken care of. Again motel six service hotel.

Pros:

The price of the rooms were nice. We really enjoyed the location of the hotel to parking, bars, restaurants and running paths. It was close to the MTS which came in handy. An added plus was the Lobby bar! Great staff great drinks! it was a nice place to relax while waiting for others to finish getting ready. Very close (walk able) to Petco park if you are there for a concert or a game! I front desk informed us our room on the 3rd floor could be loud due to the pool party from 1pm to 6pm on Saturday, but we didn't hear a thing. The rooms were very quiet!

Cons:

I wish there would have been more mirrors not just in the bathroom. It made getting ready a bit of a juggle act on who can shower and who can get there hair/make up done. One of our rooms did have a counter mirror and one of our rooms didn't so it may just depend with room you have.
