I stayed here for Comic-Con 2016. The hotel is very dated, but I like how they've tried to put modem amenities in the rooms. There are plenty of electrical outlets which is crucial these days and the wifi is free for guests. The bed was clean and comfortable. But the down side is that the rooms are small and cramped and the sinks are in the room and not the bathroom.

During Comic-Con there is free water bottles and fruit in the lobby. That is a very nice gesture and proves to me that they are thinking of their guests.

There is an adjacent restaurant that is open 24/7, and that is a real plus for conventioneers coming back from late night events.

Apparently there is a problem with noise since there are entertainment clubs nearby. I did not experience any problem with this during my stay however. And again the staff are on top of it by actually providing complementary ear plugs in the rooms.

The reason I didn't rate this review any higher is because the rooms are so dated, small and cramped and I'm accustomed to more modern accommodations. The staff and the running of the hotel are great.
