Harborview Inn & Suites-Convention Center-Airport-Gaslamp-Seaworld-Zoo-Balboa Park

The location is a huge win! you’re right in Little Italy, so everything is walkable and super convenient. We barely needed a car and anytime we did, Ubers were quick and cheap. It made exploring so easy. Also a 10 min drive to the airport! What really stood out though was the staff. Every person we interacted with was genuinely kind and helpful, which made the stay feel way more welcoming. I even had an issue with my reservation through a third-party site that accidentally booked an extra night, and they fixed it immediately and refunded me with no hassle. The room itself was clean and simple, nothing fancy but definitely comfortable. It was also surprisingly quiet from other guests, which I appreciated. You will hear some outside noise since it’s close to the freeway, but that’s pretty typical for the area and didn’t bother me. A couple things to keep in mind: the beds and pillows are definitely on the firmer side and the towels are very small and thin (child size small lol). Not a dealbreaker, just something to be aware of if you’re picky about those things! Overall, this is a great, no-frills hotel in an amazing location with really great service. You really can’t be the price either. I’d definitely stay here again.

Great staff, room was not clean mostly the beds and air conditioner.

Staff were great, location was great but it was not the cleanest place.

Gigi is the sweetest front desk host you will ever meet!

Room was small but comfortable enough for the price in the area
