9.7Great stay
The hotel is within walking distance to the bay. The front desk and valet staff were very friendly and accommodating. The Glass Door restaurant had great food and the view from the outdoor seating was beautiful!

Really liked location. Near some good restaurants in Little Italy.
Pics make the hotel look a lot nicer than it is. Rooms are small, towels are like motel 6 towels but overall a good value.

AC is Useless
The location was nice.
Its basically a converted motel, the rooms are small and the AC doesn't work. I tried multiple rooms blasting the little units at 62 degrees and it still about 80 degrees in the room late into the night. I barely slept.

Affordable and Great Little Italy Location
Great location and price. Decent rooms with great amenities like a mini fridge and microwave. Perfect affordable place to stay with friends when hitting up Little Italy and Gaslamp.
More like a renovated motel. Beds are serviceable at best. Only valet parking. Bathroom door didn't lock. Rooms towards the street can get loud.

Porto - Fine
Loved the location, it was close to everything.
When I checked in my credit card was overcharged. (I was aware of the fee's needing to be charged upon check in) However, the charge my card pended on was way over what was proposed.

Good if you don't mind the noise
This place was clean and comfortable.
However, the walls were paper thin. You can hear everything from people walking outside and starting cars to people talking at a normal volume nearby. Really terrible when the drunks returned to their rooms around midnight and 2 am.
