The location in Little Italy is fantastic. Staff was luke-warm on arrival but at check out the woman that assisted us was fabulous. Parking at $55 per night is ridiculous but what are the options in the area? Might return it was a change from my usual location in SD.

For the price you pay this hotel is not worth it. I found it dirty and rooms very small. The chair in our room was so dirty the arms were black and the under the cushion looked liked it never was cleaned. The only convenience was you were within walking distance restaurants and harbour.
