This is an OLD Hotel, which I loved as it was so historic. Completely remodeled inside though. Amazing location in the historic Gas Lamp District. So many great places to eat all around the hotel. I was here on business & it was WAY less expensive than the big-name hotels. I will be staying here again with my wife when I come back for my nephew's graduation from USMC Boot Camp in September.

Great location in the heart of the Gaslamp district, close to everything. Although it’s an older property and the entrance and elevator is basic, the unit was comfortable with beautiful skylights in the kitchen and living room. The unit was well stocked for anything we needed. Towels and bedding were clean and good quality. The WiFi worked well. It’s noisy at night but earplugs were provided. Tons of eating options for every budget right outside but not much nearby in terms of groceries. Enjoyed the stay! Thanks!

Excellent location, excellent instruction. If possible, get an Uber as parking is crazy! We had zero problems during our stay. Large shower, nice towels, decent bed and pillows. Very clean and lots of attention to detail! Would definitely stay here again!

Nice stay

The area was perfect and the room was nice however the floor was kinda dirty and the water pressure in the shower wasn’t great. Other than those two small things I had a great time and a nice stay I will definitely stay there again.

Amazing spot!

I loved staying here. The host left me a little goodie bag which was so sweet! I read a lot of reviews complaining about outside street noise but I didn’t have that issue at all. I felt super safe due to the code access on the doors. I’d stay again. So many nice food spots and night clubs that you can walk to and I parked in a parking garage for about $13

Very good place to stay if you want to experience the Gaslamp district. Do not stay here if you are a light sleeper or plan on calling it a night early, as it is very loud until 2-3am. The hotel provides a white noise machine as well as headphones, but it is still quite noisey. Perfect for a conference or nightlife stay. Will be returning next year!

Have never left a review for past travel, but this stay at Kasa San Diego was magnificent. Check in process was extremely easy, communication is great, and the place was super quiet. I was even greeted with a delicious gift! The room is a good size for two travelers and has so many amenities. Only suggestion is to place a bigger Kasa sign in front of property building as we did pass it at first and sending the parking options one day prior instead of 30 min before check in.

I would it stay here!

Horrible. I ended up NOT STAYING, the building is run down. The building has a dense musty smell,I could not breathe it! The elevator looks as though it will fall apart. There is NO parking especially if there is a game nearby. I had 4 rooms reserved and had to find another place for all of us, because I would not ask my staff to stay there!

Great location and close to convention centre and local transportation networks. Was easy to get around and explore the city. Neat location and enjoyed the historic aspect of the building. Room was quiet (I specifically asked for a room on the top floor and they were able to accomodate) and clean and I felt safe. Only complaints is the bed was really hard and windows were so dirty you couldn't really see out of them (but I wasn't there for the view so not a big deal). Showers lack any water pressure but it did the job. Overall it was a cute room and I would stay again.

Great location; Be sure you get windows

Location worked well for a business trip (Convention Center was a 10-min walk). Noise wasn't a problem, but I think that's more because of the room I got (the only window was in the bedroom -- the lack of any other windows, particularly in San Diego, made the rest of the roomy apartment feel constricting).

Upon arrival I couldn’t get access into the building because the door wasn’t working. After 4 calls and 2 maintenance guys, they just decided to keep the building door unlocked the next day. It was so inconvenient because we had to use the side door of a restaurant to get in and the employees were super annoyed we had to do so. The elevator has a really bad smell. The room wasn’t 100% clean. Overall I was not satisfied with my experience here. Parking was also inconvenient, which I expected l, because in gaslamp you usually have to find a lot nearby to park in. A lot of the lots were full or didn’t do over night. We found one nearby that we had to just keep paying for every 10 hours. Expect it to be noisy all night because you are above some bars. Silver lining about this place is that it’s really close to everything. Walking distance to petco stadium for the padres game and close to the convention center as well.

If you’re down for a weekend at the Gaslamp this hotel is for you! It’s right above a bar but the noise isn’t horrible! Everything dies at 2 am. It’s walking distant from all the best restaurants and bars. You don’t have to worry about driving! There is available parking structures that is only a three minute walk! I loved how Cozy and homey it felt! I can’t to come back!

Good things: 1. Close to convention center 2. Suite was pleasant 3 Help from staff- Marlon and John were very nice to us and helpful and honestly the saving grace of this place. Bad things: 1. Too loud downstairs 2. For an exorbitant price, it was a less than decent experience walking in, dirty dingy walkway, dirty elevator, sticky floors. 3. Ac was blasting in bedroom but rest of the suite was too warm 4. Ac would shut down on its own in the middle of the night 5. One night the fire alarm went off, we were away but there was no message or text of any sort from management. We had to be out of the room until 11 pm. 6. It took a hours for whoever was on text to respond. We had to call the 1800 number to get help. In short, over priced, no lobby or reception , very loud but staff were nice.

Booked in a rush and didn't realize the location. It's right above a bar! Bars don't close til 3-4 am, and the music is VERY loud. The room itself was nice and small. Also, be aware that this place doesn't offer parking! We found a parking garage about a 5 minute walk away

Petco visit

This place has as excellent location! Some noise at night but we tolerated it is it was well documented. It could use some touch ups-bathroom door frame &walls, bathroom floor, the bedding was very wrinkled and comforter had “balls” wadding of inner stuffing. Also, the bed is extremely low to the ground!! The elevator was horrible! We used once! And hallway-well the door was off slider to “electrical.” I attempted to communicate about check out duties and I kept getting message to “take trash out but not necessary!” We left earlier than expected and wanted to do everything the night before; I finally called the 3rd party and they informed me plus then I got more info night before. The “no front desk” is odd. Would I stay here again? Probably due to location as we were there for baseball games.

I’ve lived in a major city and have been to Gaslamp before, so I knew what to expect. The unit was super small and yes, is on top of a busy restaurant. But it was clean, nice, and pretty quiet (I got lucky and wasn’t over the street). The location is great if you want to party in Gaslamp or don’t mind noise. My only problem was when there was an issue with accessing the property due to a technical malfunction with the lock. The customer service channels Kasa advertises aren’t great. Text messages weren't answered and it took a really long time to get a person on the phone. The rep was nice and tried hard to help me, but she ultimately couldn’t get a hold of anyone to meet us onsite to help. Thankfully my party found a workaround, but it wasn’t thanks to Kasa. This is worth the price if you manage your expectations and have the flexibility to navigate issues like the door thing without an army of hotel employees available.
