What a treasure! I was in town for a conference. Raphel's place is a quick easy walk to the convention center, right up 5th St to Market and over 2 short blocks. Two things really made for a stellar stay. My plane was delayed over 8 hours which meant that I got in around 4AM. I was worried that the access pinpads would be a problem like at other places. Nope, both the building and room pinpads worked perfectly. The other is that the room is on the second floor and quiet as a library all night long. Very nice, particularly because other places have reviews that indicate lots of noise late into the night. There's a grocery store right up the street to get food and snacks as well as all the good restaurants of the Gaslamp. Raphel's communications and instructions were excellent too. Definitely exceeded my expectations. Thank you Raphel!
