About Property

Discover the whimsical charm of Room U at The Dutra, an inviting escape in the heart of San Diego, California. Whether you feel the sudden urge to cross the border for a quick trip to Mexico or prefer to simply find a bottle of mezcal and hang under the chaperoning of the large windows, this space offers a unique atmosphere for your city getaway.

Designed for two guests, the layout consists of one bedroom with one comfortable bed and one bathroom. The room is thoughtfully appointed with high-end details, including a Tuft & Needle bed dressed in Parachute linens. Guests can enjoy a dedicated dining area and a special bar—sourced from the grandson of a man who originally brought it over from Spain—adding a touch of historic character to the stay. The space also features a private street-facing patio with high-top seating, perfect for people-watching.

While there are no general property amenities listed, Room U provides curated room-specific touches for a wonderful stay:

• A welcome drink upon arrival
• Malin + Goetz products
• Chemex coffee maker with local beans from Dark Horse Coffee Roasters

Located in the vibrant Little Italy neighborhood, the property is situated in the city's center for bars and restaurants, making it the ideal spot for a fancy steak dinner or a well-made tiki drink. The area is extremely walkable and bikeable, located just a few blocks from the gorgeous San Diego bay front. For those exploring the wider city, you are only a 5-minute drive from the airport and 10 minutes away from Balboa Park, Gaslamp, North Park, Hillcrest, and the beaches.

To ensure the best experience for everyone, please note a few quirks: Room U is located up three narrow flights of outdoor stairs. Additionally, due to the large street-facing windows and patio, light and noise may be present at night, so this room is not recommended for light sleepers.
