Dark, Uncomfortable and small
Pros:

Nothing....

Cons:

Suite 6 was dark, small... when opening the curtains, I could see neighbours wall... no heating, just a small device I was afraid of leaving on during all night. Nowhere to hang my clothes, or even place them, nowhere to put my bag, not even the floor as the room was small, no place to put my creams, stuff for bath... Bed was old wood bed, mattress unconfortable. THe door appeared to be built of paper. No extra blankets. About the price it was the same as a good Whyndam hotel 3 blocks away!

Awesome experience, Brian it’s a great and helpful host. I’d totally come back and stay at his place in the future!
Pros:

it’s a nice, really cozy studio. It works perfectly for a single person or a couple, no more than that.

Cons:

The only thing I didn’t like it’s the parking situation. It gets hard to look for parking, specially at night. However the place is walking distance to many places and/or Uber is really cheap since the place it’s 5 minutes away from Gaslamp Quarter and other attractions.

Pros:

I liked the location. It was a few blocks away from the busy downtown. That was a plus for me. It was also a secure place.The room was fresh, nice, cozy, and clean..The decor gave it a nice ambiance. The bed was comfy. The manager Bruce was very kind, courteous, and attentive.. Wish I could have stayed longer. I will recommend it to my friends.

Cons:

It would have been nice to have a towel bar in the bathroom. A little shelf in the shower. A clock . Maybe papertowels or napkins. Nothing to really complain about. Just suggestions.

Great experience, will definitely come back !
Pros:

I absolutely loved the place , it’s beautiful from outside and so cosy and cute inside. Super clean , very quiet , and It has everything what you need, included hair dryer and hair iron .
The location was perfect for me , it’s like 15 minutes walk to the ocean, in a very pretty and cosy area.
What absolutely amazed me that house keeping team found my AirPods what I accidentally forgot in my bed sheets, taking only case with me.
Highly recommend! Great value for the price!
Thank you Brian and many thanks to your team 🙏
