“Location is a definite plus, placing you right in Little Italy, though its proximity to the freeway means you might want to pack earplugs. The hotel offers a mix of remodeled charm and basic amenities; I especially appreciate the in-room fridges and the communal coffee bar. For a clean, no-frills base to explore San Diego, it certainly holds appeal.”
