Never stay here
Maria, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The hotel was ok and room was a good size and clean. The area around was dirty and lots of homeless. The parking is free but not guaranteed and very limited. If are looking for a good price and close enough to uber this will work. We wont stay here again due to the area and parking situation.

Staff is friendly. Room was clean but dusty in some areas like air conditioning. The curtains were very dirty with spots of food. Very limited parking space.
Sara, 1-night trip

Usually, I appreciate a couple nights stay at any hotel in San Diego, although I am homeless? However, I don't like inconvience by being a guest.

Kelly, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Not overall a bad property for price. BE CAREFUL IN THE SHOWER, not only did I fall but my significant other fell in the shower due how to slippery the tub is. Definitely needs a grip matt or something before an injury occurs
Emilie, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The staff was very nice and accommodating but location not the best. Very noisy during the night
Marcus, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

All in all it was a good place for the price. The gentleman at the fron desk was friendly. Microwave was broken and it smelt a bit musty. I'm paranoid about every hotel i sleep in so i generally bring sanatizing spray and pillow cases.
Elaine, 6-night trip

4/10 Poor

It’s like a motel 6. It wasn’t the cleanest. They definitely looks way better in the pictures.
