It was not bad for a quick rest after a long week of travel.
Owners of this property need to do a lot of work ! Your property was the first one on the list of choices on Expedia , lucky for you .
Sad thing it should have been the last choice ! 😪 get to work and your place can be a worth while choice to stay at .
It was the worst places and as we got to San Diego late , we stayed one night and the next day we run away from this place snd canceled next our three nights.
Don't stay here. The pictures look a lot better than it actually is. Its very run down and nosy. Its like living a getto or a third world country. The room is very dirty. There are burn marks on the bed spread, bathroom is disgusting. The whole place smells. Your car is not safe.
The sheets on one of the beds had food stains on them along with some crumbs. Also, the room had a microwave & a refrigerator, but not a coffee maker??
Was given a smoking room, was hard to sleep over the smell. Someone’s screeching car went on for about 5 minutes next to my room. Wasn’t given a Wi-Fi password. Dirty and run down room.

Property was nice and comfortable it isnt a grand hotel but it was a badic good motel with allthe works including mini fridge and microwave. Cigarette burn in our bed but overall cozy and comfy.
This place was the worst. Tweekers everywhere and all kinds of shady stuff going on, cars in and out all night. The rooms a/c didnt work and the place still had bits of trash on the floor. If it wasnt so late when i had arrived and the fact that i had already paid through the app., i would have never stayed there. Never will again, trust me...go someplace else
I wouldnt know since they called me at 12pm when check in is at 3pm and i was already almost there. And they told me they gave my room away. And i called expedia and was no help not even to try find me anothr room
very depressing room colors, amenities, dark, gloomy, but worse of all hard to get around if you are somewhat handicaped and I am.

Bed sheets dirty.
Room painting unfinished.
Room non smoking, but smells.
Lo que me gustó mmm fue casi nada todo fue decepcionante.
La limpieza estaba horrible las sábanas tenían agujeros de cigarro todo olía mal más cuando llevas familia mi esposa estába muy enojada fue desagradable no lo recomiendo.
The toilet did not work since I got there, the wall was chipping out, towels were stained, the staff was nice but there were a lot of noice with certain guest in several rooms like a tweek fest not a couple kind of noise. It was hot and the ac didn’t really work either. If you are single it be ok but not suited for a family stay.
