“In San Diego's Little Italy, this boutique hotel charms with its European vibe and prime location-steps away from vibrant nightlife and exceptional eateries like Morning Glory. I found the staff genuinely attentive, ready with local tips and even an elevator assist after a late night. With its Italian café and cozy, modern rooms, it's an inviting urban retreat.”
