fantastic gaslamp experience
bright roomcontagious smiledisruptive noise
i appreciated the hotel's location near everything.. including pubs, restaurants, and the convention center. the bright and clean rooms featured metric coffee, which i greatly valued. i found the seamless check-in with tiffany's contagious smile to be very cute, which started my stay positively. i also enjoyed the nearby padres stadium for baseball games.
during my stay, i found the noise levels to be quite disruptive due to the gaps under the doors, which allowed sound to travel easily. this made it difficult to relax at times. to lessen the noise, i had to stuff a towel under the door.
