"The hotel is in a good condition. It is next to a highway and therefore there is noise. Room is average, there is a noisy fridge. For people who are sensitive to all kind of noise like me, it might not be optimal. A bed is hard. You better bring your pillow."

Charming Cozy Suite in Poway with Sloped Ceiling & Private Balcony

"Location/Space looks just like pictures posted. Beds were very comfy. The TVs in every room was a great bonus. AC worked great and house stayed cool. House was clean. Tip-bring your own pool towels. There were bath towel’s available. Also there was limited forks/spoons so if staying a longer period of time you might want to bring extra"
