The only Victorian hotel of this era still located on its original site, this three-story structure began serving as a home for community relief services in 1901, when the Helping Hand Home moved in. Later the organization evolved into Children's Hospital of San Diego, which occupied the building until 1920. The structure's brick-veneered facings, galvanized iron cornices, iron columns, and plate-glass fronts make it one of the most significant Victorian-style buildings in the district.
