• fantastic restoration of an historic bank building right in the gaslamp area of san diego
• the room lay-out was a bit awkward

“Fun and interesting to stay in an historic building. One MUST see the old bank vault on the bottom floor, and the cuppola tower on top of this tall, majestic building”

• The staff was very friendly.
• It expected a pool and it did not have one. We were not happy with the view.

“This hotel was not what we expected. We were told there was a pool but there was not one. Some of the furnishings in the room were very old and stained and should be replaced.”

• Unique historic remodel, extraordinary elegance.
• No pool, valet wait is no fun.

“Aside from there being no pool and the parking issue ($ and long waits for the valet). We were surprised at the innate elegance of the interior. The rooms and floors were exquisite. Staff/valets and location were perfect. We would definitely return - next time without kids!”

• Very polite and very friendly staff
• Horrible valet parking and noisy on weekends near bars

“Located in a historically listed old bank this hotel's lobby is quite charming with a nostalgic look at old bank fixtures and reminiscent of the 1920's. The staff is super friendly and the buffet breakfast was pretty good. Overall the hotel was very clean, almost spotless. It's located to tons of restaurants and shops (Horton Plaza is a short walk), as well as the stadium. This hotel is not without cons however. You have to valet, which is located on the street often double parking, taking 15-20 mins to get your car (you have to call ahead)and they charge you $24/day. We asked for towels and never got any. There is no ramp from the lobby to the elevators for strollers. Wheelchairs can take a mini elevator. You have to transfer elevators past floor 14 (not too bad). On a weekend the traffic is horrible, their are crowds of young people waiting to get into bars/clubs on the streets and the noise from the various clubs is rather loud. There is one club located behind the hotel and you can hear the bass of the music late at night. Lower floors, I was told, are for more noisy guests. This hotel caters to the business class, it is not family oriented, but in a pinch, it'll do and is probably pretty decent for the price.”

• The comfort of the hotel, and friendliness of staff.
• Paid too much for hotel parking.

“This was a wonderful hotel to stay at. The beds were comfortable, and the room sparkling clean. The staff was friendly. Parking was overpriced. But all in all, I would return, and also recommend it to others.”

• Very plesant daytime staff.
• Charged for parking and nighttime staff.

“Overall, the hotel and location was great. I only encountered small mishaps, nothing serious at all. Great staff at check-in, very friendly. Location was great for food and entertainment - trolley around the corner.”

• Hotel is an old bank building so the architecture was interesting.
• Parking is expensive.

“Our room, which was a large corner on the second floor, had a constant sound of water running through it. Almost as if someone was running the shower 24 hours a day. Otherwise, the hotel was nice, well located, and clean.”

• The front desk clerk was very friendly and personal.
• No valet parking on Halloween night. Not a very good view.

“The room on the fifteen floor was great. We didn't hear the street noise and the guest next door could not be heard. The room was spacious and very clean.”

• Great location.
• Parking was $24/day. Bathroom had a sliding door. Rooms on the smaller end.

“This is a good 3-star hotel. It's in a great location. Beware of the smaller rooms and parking fees. Staff was very friendly. Would recommend if you're not looking for a lot of frills.”

• Shower was great.
• Parking was expensive, hotel not suitable for families with young children.

“The room was clean and the shower head was great. The room we stayed in had a window facing another building so there wasn't much of a view.”

• Classy renovation of older building - modern features in former bank building.
• Awkward staircase between check-in and elevators, making luggage a hassle.

“Check-in was warm and professional. Only option was valet parking but the crew was crisp, attentive, and welcoming. Great in and out privileges. This hotel was a former bank building - very nice blend of old and new. Hotel room doors are not a typical hotel look - visually interesting yet comfortable.”
