The hotel room is minimal but enough for two people! It’s in a good area, we were able to walk around and explore different shops and go to the pier. The AC was fine for us. The room was clean. Parking is a good deal, only downside was we were locked out of our room because they assumed we didn’t pay for parking but it was quickly resolved after we showed the receipts. Overall, we had a good experience for a 3 day stay and we would consider booking again if we were to come back!

This is a centrally located location, steps from anything in Little Italy and walkable to anywhere else downtown. 15-20 minutes to Seaport Village or the harbor. If you want to spend time in Little Italy, this is a great location.

The property is generally pretty clean and the room was very clean.

The room is small which is fine, but the set up is a bit odd. There is no sink in the bathroom. There is a sink in the room, but no where to put a towel. There is not a mirror over the sink itself, which makes tasks like shaving or putting on makeup a bit challenging. There is a mirror on another wall (opposite the sink). So you end up going between the bathroom, the sink, and the other wall that has a mirror.

The air conditioning works well, but it’s a portable unit, so it’s extremely noisy. If you need white noise, maybe this is a good thing. Ear plugs might be helpful.

They also rent out rooms on a monthly rate and have a lot of community spaces. This too is interesting. Not bad, but different.

No sink or mirror in the bathroom, so you are brushing your teeth where the kitchen area is. Shower is for a shorter person, but it does detach. Air conditioner is a floor unit that sits at the foot of your bed with a tube that goes out the window. It’s clean, staff is friendly, it’s safe, there is no maid service, I guess “limited” means maybe you can request? Not sure. Is it worth the $1300 I paid for 3 nights? No, I just don’t think so.

Parking was a bit complicated because it’s in little italy so you just have to find what’s available on the streets or pay for public parking. Check in was easy. The hotel is half hotel half apartment (up to 6 month lease, I was told) so there are residents living on the property. Location wise, it was in a cutesy area, but if you go a couple blocks down it’s downtown so homeless are expected. Regarding the room, it was like the pictures and air conditioning was AMAZING!! The only thing was the door is hard to open and the room was not the cleanest. The shower had some hair and the sink had dirty water that was stuck on the drain protector. The hand soap is inside a reusable bottle, which in my opinion is icky. All in all, this is a good hotel for 1-2 day stays and it does the job.

It was a really nice play to stay and the location was perfect- just one block from Little Italy so I felt safe walking out. The room was very pretty and clean. The bathroom didn't have a sink and there was only the kitchen sink which was a bit weird but I didn't mind. The only downside was that I was in the first floor, so I could hear what was happening out in the hallway. I also couldn't open my window because it showed the common area and I didn't want anyone to see inside. In all, it was a good and cozy experience!

Great spot to stay at. For future guests, keep in mind that the price you’re paying is great for the area you’re staying in. Other spots charge arm and leg. All I wanted was a place to sleep in terms of a room and this met the expectations. If your expectations are to spend extensive amount of time in a room then this might not be the place for you

The low price was certainly the deciding factor, but I'm fairly content with what i got. The location in Little Italy is amazing and the additional parking cost is reasonable compared to other hotels around town. Biggest complaint is the noise - squeaky floors above me and vacuuming early in the morning didn't make for the most restful sleep. The bed was comfy but the comforter was not very warm.

We had a great stay at Little Italy Inn! The location was perfect—close to everything we wanted to do and easy to get around.

The room was clean and comfortable, and the front desk staff was always friendly, attentive, and available whenever we had questions. One thing I really appreciated was how accommodating they were with our parking. We had an SUV, and the parking space we originally paid for was too small. They had no problem switching us to a larger spot, which made things so much easier.

Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely stay here again!

We stayed here during BIO and overall had a good experience. The location is fantastic and very walkable, with our favorite sushi place nearby and two great ice cream shops close enough to become a daily habit.

The hotel has a cozy, community-style feel with a shared kitchen, backyards, and comfortable indoor seating areas. It’s a nice option if you like a relaxed, home-like environment.

A few details could use more attention. The check-in counter often looks cluttered, which gives a slightly disorganized first impression. The rooms are okay but extremely small, and we had to rearrange furniture just to make our suitcase accessible. The sink is in the entryway rather than the bathroom, with an open clothes rail and a cabinet above it. There’s no towel hanger in that area, so we improvised with a clothes hanger.

During our four-day stay, dishes weren’t refreshed, and no dish soap was provided. The bathroom has no mirror, and several fixtures like towel bars and a side table were loose enough that we tightened one ourselves. There was a stain around a wall frame and an older carpet that could use a deeper clean. There’s also no iron in the room, which business travelers might miss.

None of this ruined the stay, but the rooms would benefit from more routine maintenance and small-item checkups. With a bit more attention to those details, the hotel could easily match its excellent location and welcoming common spaces.

The best part of staying at Little Italy Inn is the location! Literally a block away from so many restaurants, cafes and bars! The room was small but clean and staff helpful. They allowed late check in when we got caught near the harbor making our way back. It is less than a minute to Farmers Market on Wednesday and Saturday with great food options to try. We will be back!

Tiny rooms and extremely loud portable room air conditioning- which meant it was either so loud you can’t sleep or so hot and stuffy that you can’t sleep. Can’t open the windows on the ground floor, which I’m pretty sure is illegal in case of a fire. Room was like 6in wider than the queen size bed. They photograph it in a way that makes it look like studio apt, but they aren’t. There’s no coffee maker, just a kettle.

I stayed here for 4 nights. The room was comfy and clean. The room had the sink outside of the restroom, which I found a little interesting. My room specifically, was located in a kinda weird spot. My window did not look out the street but rather out to other windows which made feel a bit uncomfortable to open the shades. This made it difficult to get sunlight inside the room. The hotel has a large kitchen downstairs in which anyone can use to cook meals in the stove or warm up food in the microwave. I would say the hotel looked more like an apartment complex. The location of the hotel was very convenient to Little Italy. Great access to local restaurants and coffee shops.

The sink for the restroom was outside of the bathroom where there was a kitchen sink and hand soap there. As a female, the mirror and sink being outside the bathroom made it harder to get ready. I noticed there were outlets in odd places when I am used to having a nightstand with a place to charge my electronics at. My boyfriend agreed with me about the set up and it's ideal for only men. Also, I forgot to mention that the shampoo and conditioner didn't feel like good products. The conditioner was watered down too and it looked odd so I avoided using it. I wouldn't stay here again.

Room was okay for just myself and within my budget for this trip. Did have some issues though. Specifically chose here becuase I thought it would better than staying somewhere like a Motel 6, but I would say it was as good, if not worse than one of those. Shower curtain rod was rusty. There was some paint peeling of the wall near light switch in the bathroom. There were lights on the wall above the bed that couldn't even be turned on (basically just there for decoration). The mattress was very thin and uncomfortable. Only reason I could fall asleep was because I was so tired from walking around all day. Could hear a lot of noise from other guests as well from inside the room. Overall, the room and hotel looked much better in pictures compared to actually being there. Wasn't horrible to the point I was going to leave, but it wasn't what I was expecting I guess. Would potentially be open to staying here again next time I am in San Diego, but would definitely keep this in mind.
