"We did have a light failure in the middle of night. Maintenance was called and they resolved the problem. The front desk also adjusted the bill to compensate for our difficulties."

Residence Inn by Marriott San Diego Downtown/Gaslamp Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"thank you very much!!"

Keating Hotel By At Mine Hospitality

8/10 Good

"Amazing location! Heart of the Gaslamp! And only 2 blocks from main bus lines. Easy for non-locals to take the city bus from airport. Super basic room but had everything we needed. I read other reviews before we stayed so knew what to expect (loud at night) but the earplugs on the night stands still made me laugh! And we used them!! The front desk has limited hours but the staff was attentive and checked in over text messages so it felt like they were always available, even if we didn’t see them in the lobby."
