The property is charming. The restaurant and rooftop bar are both very nice, and the burgers are amazing. The elevator adds to the overall charm of the hotel but after awhile it becomes a bit inconvenient. Most rooms seem to be generally quite small. There's just enough room for the bed. Lastly, I find $65 for valet parking extremely expensive. I understand that cities typically charge higher prices due to limited space but it just feels like too much. Overall, however, the hotel was in a good location to be near the bars and nightlife, and it did the job for a couple nights a reasonable nightly rate.

Palihotel is an amazing spot to see Gaslamp and downtown San Diego. The elevator is slow, but it adds to the charm of the hotel. Beautiful rooftop, cool restaurant next door; and quirky rooms add to the unique feel

Would not stay at again. Bathroom was tiny, shower wouldn’t drain, sink barely drained, elevator was super inconvenient (took the stairs majority of the time), had to do the hotel’s valet for $65 a night with fees, and they take forever and move at their own pace.

The service at the front desk was quite disappointing when a problem with the room was brought to their attention, they did not do much about it, no sense of urgency to make the guest whole for the inconvenience caused by the room condition.
