Great staff and nice rooms with excellent bedding, but we were placed in a room below a housekeeping room and the noise from above through the ceiling was incessant and woke us early.

We have stayed here before. The staff are great and the location is perfect for us. The only issue was the water coming out of the bathroom sink smelled like sewer. It was really bad to the point I didn't want to brush my teeth with that water. I let the staff know, and they said that just happens sometimes.

Better options available in the GL district

Booked a suite for $350 and really disapointed at how small the room was. They gave us a room right by the elevator which we heard all night long. Some sort of fight broke out on our floor, I believe the police were called. Noisy upstairs above our room. Overall didn't feel this was worth the price.

Hotel Z is A+

An outstanding hotel. I was able to check in early and check out late due to arrival departure times. If you have checked out they will hold your bags for you while you get in some last minute sightseeing before you leave. Colourful halls and rooms in the heart of The GasLamp District. All employees were polite and very helpful.

Hotel Z is walkable from Santa Fe train depot & to Petco Park which were deciding factors in electing to stay there. Our room was clean and comfortable. The welcome gift was a pleasant surprise tempered by the additional “amenities” fee. The worst feature was the “rain shower” style shower head that was mounted on a traditional wall extension versus ceiling mount. The result was a very awkward, trickle of water way too close to the wall. The desk clerk offered to refund my “amenities fee”, hopefully he did…
