This hotel was perfect for what we needed on our stay. The price for a king bed and AC was hard to beat and the aesthetics were superb. We especially liked the entrance lobby and the shower in our room. If you’re on the first floor you can hear upstairs neighbors a little. The rooftop was cool but none of the fire places appeared to be working and there wasn’t clearly posted instructions anywhere. All in all, I plan on staying here again when I visit San Diego.

Everything about the property is amazing. The only thing it suffers from was the amount of homeless people but being in downtown San Diego that’s a given. 10/10 would stay again

Very cute and cozy hotel. Great area just a few minutes Uber to little Italy and gas lamp. Room was small but good enough size and nice design specially the bathroom, bed was comfortable. There’s a coffee machine and microwave in the lobby which was great. My stay was super quiet which was perfect for me.

This property suited my needs. The facility and area were clean and safe. The actual room was a little smaller than anticipated, specifically the bathroom/shower room. That said, it would not deter me from staying again. Walking to the Conference Center was a respectable 15 min walk. Probably the only thing I desired that wasn't available was an in-room mini fridge.

They provided lots of thoughtful things like a white noise machine. Love the rustic touch to the interior especially the shower. Parking was easy as some street parking was available, I imagine this might not be the case so plan accordingly.

The property is located close to the Gaslamp district with all the restaurants and night life. As with other Sonder locations, easy check-in and out, has a good list of recommendations of the neighborhood and on the app. When needed, a staff member replied promptly on the chat within their app. The hand written welcome note was a very nice touch from Susie and the team!

quick comfort <3

actually super cute modern style hotel in the center of san diego! if you’re looking to stay somewhere fairly priced, especially for an event (concert for ex) everything’s pretty much in walking distance or cheap ubers! It is small so definitely something for couples or if you’re going alone for business or self-discovery! I would say the only downside is being next to busy streets so traffic can get loud but if you’re a deep sleeper, like me, it won’t bother you (they also supply white a noise machine and ear plugs to help!)
