“Horton Grand's heritage Gaslamp stay”
Horton Grand Hotel is a beautiful heritage-rich San Diego hotel — a supreme Gaslamp location, spacious family-friendly rooms, excellent facilities, impeccable cleanliness, two free bar coupons, and above-and-beyond friendly staff. The complaints: the building is quite old; extra California taxes run about twenty-seven dollars a day; and one severe grievance — a noisy stuffy room plus 7:30am housekeeping door-knocks that woke the guest, who fumed that the hotel is for rest, not staff convenience.
