The cozy room was perfect for my boyfriend and me, and we loved the big shower in the shared bathroom. Relaxation was easy with the lovely lobby and access to nearby parks. The room was a bit snug, but it didn’t impact our stay at all. definitely ask about parking before arriving! 😊

Clean and comfortable rooms.

I had a deeply unsettling experience during my stay. The noise levels were unbearable, with shouting and sirens ongoing throughout the night. The surrounding neighborhood felt dangerous, and street parking was a nightmare, adding to my stress. I couldn't shake the feeling of being unsafe, especially when we noticed markings on our car that implied it could be stolen.

Single Stay Excellent Experience

The bed was comfortable and there was lots of shelf and cupboard storage space. Plus, the staff were very helpful and provided great advice on local attractions.

It wasn’t cheap but still acceptable.

Charming Stay with Local Flavor

I truly enjoyed my three-night stay. The vibrant neighborhood vibe and local eateries nearby made for delightful evenings. While my Queen Room with Shared Bathroom felt cozy, the lively sounds of the city outside added charm. Tip, explore the local dining scene for amazing seafood.

great experience but room could use better seating

The location was incredible, with many eateries just steps away. Stephanie at the front desk truly made a difference with her friendly demeanor and assistance. The bright and lively decor enhanced the welcoming feeling, making my stay enjoyable.

The room lacked sufficient seating options, which made it a bit awkward for family activities.

Location is fantastic, just a short walk to Balboa Park. The room is quite small, and noise from the planes is noticeable.

The front desk staff provided great assistance during a trying situation, even helping to change bed sheets that had a noticeable stain. However, the deluxe room was cramped and lacked sufficient outlets, making it less convenient for longer stays. While the location was excellent for access to nearby dining options, the overall cleanliness and space left much to be desired.

The vibrant decor and cozy atmosphere made me feel right at home. Navigating the hotel was a breeze, and I appreciated that it was easy on the feet, making my stay delightful overall.

More seating options in the rooms.

Can recommend for a quick layover

Comfortable bed, spacious room, with lots of shelf and cupboard storage space that made my stay convenient, and the excellent location near Balboa Park allowed for easy exploration of surrounding eateries.

Thoroughly pleased.

Great Location and Helpful Staff

I stayed for 3 nights and loved the proximity to Balboa Park and Little Italy – perfect for exploration! The staff, especially Stephanie and Edgar, were exceptional in providing local insights and recommendations. The quirky retro charm of the room added character, although a bit more seating would have made it even better.

stayed at balboa park hotel downtown little italy for 5 nights, and it was a great experience! the location is perfect with lots of places to eat nearby. stephanie and edgar were awesome, full of humor and super helpful. can't wait to explore balboa park and the zoo next time!

i do recommend.

Just a reliable pick for a weekend stopover in San Diego with real value for money. The bed in my private room was clean and comfy. check room details closely.

The bed was comfy, lots of towels were provided, and the location was prime for exploring. I loved the fun vibes and casual atmosphere.
