A few friends and I spent the weekend at Urban Sands for a birthday celebration in the city. The four of us found it to be a great setup for what we needed. It was a quaint space that allowed us to stay downtown on a budget. The location was on the outskirts of nightlife in the Gaslamp Quarter, which allowed for convenient walking distances to where we wanted to go. There were some safety concerns, but nothing out of the ordinary for downtown. Earplugs were also provided by the hosts, which allowed for a sound night of sleep over the city noise. The only thing missing was bath towels for the shower. Overall the communication was great & response times were short. I would stay here again in the future.
