Amazing stay at the Pineapple! We were given a room upgrade to a suite since it was my husband’s birthday, and we enjoyed it very much. The room was spacious and very clean. The bed was so comfortable and the duvets were so cozy and soft. Employees were all so nice and greeted us each time we came through the lobby. Great location in Gaslamp. I really liked the free metal water bottles and refill station. I will definitely be returning.

Just an overnight stay, cute facility, the rooms are adorable. Where our room was located we could hear a lot of street noise. Outlets by the bed didn't work, but we were only staying one night.
