We've stayed there several times for Comic Con. It's very quaint and has a lot of character. The rooms are tiny because of its age, big hotels just weren't a thing in the 1800s. There's just 2 of us so we've never had anything other than a 1 bed room. The staff has always been great. The parking is valet only as the lot is off-site. You can't beat the location, right in the heart of the Gaslamp District, tons of shopping and eating in walking distance. The hallways can be a bit confusing as it's several parts of buildings and there's weird turns here and there. The courtyard in the bottom is a neat spot to eat breakfast and relax. The restaurant has changed hands since we've been there so I can't comment on that. It's very well kept up, doesn't feel old or dingy, but it has few modern amenities.
