"awesome location and far from the experience of a "chain" hotel. great "old style" gaited elevator (historic) and the roof was amazing but unfortunately roof bar was not open. price point was great and room was smallish but well decorated and had all I needed and the Gaslamp district was right out the door. relatively easy walk to conference center and this hotel was closer to where you want to be for dining etc than the big expensive hotels by conference center. would happily stay again.
