This place is an extremely convenient location if you are looking to be close to a lot in downtown San Diego. We were able to walk most places we wanted to go, including the baseball stadium. Tons of great dining options around. I will say, I didn't expect the amount of homeless people that were literally right around the corner. There is a Salvation Army located across the block, which doesn't help as well as being close to the bus station. While we stayed here, there was construction going on. Fortunately, it didn't interfere with our sleep as I'm an early riser. Overall, not a horrible place to stay. I did feel secure, as there is someone on premise at all times, there are cameras in the building and there is an access code outside the building.
