AC Hotel was such a great choice for our night stay! Everything was clean and modern! The rooms were clean and a good size with everything we needed! The staff was also very nice and made sure our needs were met. Since there is no on sight parking, we had to pay $58 for the valet parking. Valet was also great! They were quick with getting our vehicles and very polite. Our stay was great over all.

My 40th birthday weekend

I had a great experience staying in the Gaslamp district of San Diego. The AC hotel staff were amazing and accommodating. I had to change my room due to AC issues and the staff moved me to a better room with a full balcony. This was my 40th birthday celebration trip. Despite the noise outside my balcony of the festivities on 5th street, I had an amazing memorable experience!
