This was an amazing place with an incredible nostalgia. We got there at midnight the first night because of a late flight. One of the members of the family who owned this place, showed up at the gate and let us in. When you get there, you get a key to open the gate into the garden area. The rooms are old, but designed with a lot of charm. We had the bathroom with the pinewood tub. The entire experience was five stars. If you’re looking for brand new and shiny sparkly, this is not your place. If you’re looking for an antique setting in an amazing location, then you’ve found your spot.

For an historical experience right in the heart of Old Town, the Cosmo is the place to stay. I rarely have anything negative to say about a lodging because I understand that most places do try hard. But I need to offer some suggestions for Cosmo management. First, the "historically correct" furniture in the room was unusable. The cushions and padding on the chairs and couch were painfully uncomfortable. We brought in the wooden chairs from outdoors for something to sit on. Surely, when Mr. Seeley had the furniture brought around the Cape Horn by ship, the padding and cushions were the best he could buy. So to be historically correct, the padding and cushions should be just as comfortable as when Mr. Seeley was sitting on them. A trip to a local upholstery shop could restore the furniture's usefulness to guests, without compromising the historical appearance. Second, while the clawfoot bathtub was quaint and historic, there were no grab bars to assist in entering and exiting the tub. I know Mr. Seeley did not have these either, but you would think a basic safety feature like grab bars could be added and made to look "historic." Modern guests shouldn't have to risk compound fractures in order to bathe. I'm surprised that the local city codes don't require grab bars. The room does have smoke detectors and I'm certain that Mr. Seeley didn't have those either. Third, some minor things like the loosely attached toilet seat and the room's door not latching could be fixed.

Beautiful place, love staying here. Very safe to walk to the train from here. It’s a 5 minute walk and $2. To ride. Would definitely stay here again.

This was a fun and great experience! The hotel is currently undergoing some changes so it wasn't open we had to call someone to let us onto the property and check us in. Which only added to the experience. The room was old but just what we needed for our short stay. No hauntings but we'll be back soon so maybe they'll say hello next time!

Comfortable. Good location. Excellent staff

Located in Old Sn Diego. A fun area with lots to see and do.

Amazing unique restful enjoyable stay as a single traveling make it met all my expectations! The. History behind the hotel led me to choosing the Cosmopolitan over other hotels… a plus was that they have no TVs or electronic which helped me detach a little. Fernando was super friendly and helpful when I made a minor mistake in my reservation and he even loaned me a phone charger when mine stopped working! I will be back soon! Thank you!
