Booked a room for one night, paid my $100 deposit fee which should’ve been reimbursed, but they took my $100. We did no damages to the room at all. Staff taking advantage because we are a young couple. Don’t recommend booking this place.

Threatened to cancel my room if I didn’t arrive by 11:30 PM - which I have never experienced before. Floor had reddish brown spatter and a sticker on it. Wall had rust colored spatter on it. Headboards dirty and had a cigar sized hole out of it. No functioning ice machine. Everything was such a disaster in the room and check in that I barely noticed the freeway noises outside with the homeless person and street walker. I wish this was satire, but it unfortunately was not.

Overall not too bad for the price. The room was old and it showed. There was tape marks on some of the floor boards. The tub was scary, probably calcium build up but looked very dirty. The table and toilet seat cover had burn marks! Which was strange. But the location was convenient, easy in and out, for one night, it was ok. I just needed a place to sleep and the bed was comfortable.

Just remember that this place is close to a major highway, so being won’t be the top of anyone’s list. But beyond that, the room was comfortable and clean with the furniture being in good condition. Unfortunately, whatever box spring that they used for the bed needed to be replaced because you could hear a little twang of the metal spring when you would shift your position on the bed. The TV had a little flicker on my first day there, but on the second day, the screen went blank in the middle of a show. Luckily I had my laptop to stream on. But all in all, besides these issues, I would not mind staying here again since it is a convenient place to be in with all the options for restaurants, shopping, and whatever special event in San Diego you might want to stay for.

Eh, a place to sleep.

Last minute booking- not my first choice by any means. VERY old hotel, zero amenities, horrible towels. Conveniently located near everything we wanted to do but would never stay here again.

The walkways and our room floor is VERY uneven. Not sure if foundation is secure. No phone. Wi-Fi didn’t work. AC and lights all unplugged. Our pillows were the size of a couch throw pillow. Not enough towels…room had two bath towels and one washcloth. The seal on the door broke, so light came through the door. Toilet stained black. Floor was dirty and in bad shape.

The elevator safety certificate expired in 2022. I found a long dark hair in the sink and a large alligator hair clip in the shower from a previous guest. There was also a strange piece of molding taped down to the floor meant to bridge the gap between the grey faux wood flooring and the linoleum in the sink area. Signs around the property mention breakfast being served in the morning, but I was told at check in that there is no breakfast. Property neglect at the highest level.

Nice stay

The room was great. It was comfortable. It was very clean. Very nice. We forgot to ask about a floor room on the app making the reservation, but when we asked at the front desk, there was not a problem at all. He said absolutely and gave us a bottom floor. He was very nice.
