First stay
This is one of the nicer hotels I've stayed at and I've traveled a lot. A short walk from Santa Fe Station and from downtown San Diego Gaslight district.

Just one night
The room was small with two queen beds and only one desk chair. The hand basin was in the entryway separate from the small toilet/shower room. It seemed suitable for a single traveller (with one bed) but cramped for two. We found Tender Greens and the Corner Bakery close by for dinner and breakfast.

Arrived early so expected to have to store our bags but was pleasantly surprised to get a room right away. Requested a later check out by one hour and was provided with that. Super friendly staff.

Excellent stay!
Loved my stay at the Sofia Hotel! I visited San Diego for a concert and it was very close to the venue and other fun places. Would definitely stay here again.

Updated, older hotel. Not a chain!
I’d rather stay in an older hotel that’s been updated instead of chain hotels. The Sofia fit the bill beautifully

Wonderful stay in general, good firm bed, pleasant surprise you had duvet sheets ( European/Scandinavian blanket inside a sheet "bag" totally awesome. Feel that the resort fee should be dropped since there is NO restaurant or breakfast possibility. I was there only to sleep/shower.
