“Margaritaville Gaslamp's fun but thin walls”

Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter is a friendly, very nice hotel in the middle of the city — a rooftop bar and heated pool, distinctive cozy-cute decor, convenient surroundings about ten minutes from the attractions, a ground-floor restaurant, free gym, timely cleaning, 24-hour hot water, and a helpful front desk; convention-goers find it close to the centre. The consistent caveat: walls are very thin — downstairs noise and loud guests often continue until around 2am — so light sleepers should avoid noisy-neighbour floors.
