Great location for travellers looking for something with a decent price.
I would consider this more of a hostel than a boutique hotel - which is 100% not a bad thing - just my opinion.
However don’t let that put you off it. It’s very clean - even the shared bathrooms are kept clean which is essential.
There is noise from the street but what do you expect? It’s right in the heart of the city. If you can handle a bit of street noise this place is ideal for any type of traveller.
The owner is super friendly and good with messaging etc.
We loved San Diego. 100 times better than LA where we had just come from.
