Everything as expected.

This motel was chosen based on proximity to our family’s home. It was exactly what was expected for the price paid. We felt safe here and the linens and towels were clean. The ac/ heating unit was a bit finicky but we would stay here again.

I can’t do too much complaining since hotel price is very reasonable and met all of my needs. Many food options within the area to choose. Would be nice if there was something more than coffee provided in the morning. Also, if your room is near the street side, many emergency vehicles will pass by and can be disturbing but not as much disturbance in the back. If you’re looking for a decent hotel on a budget, this is a good choice. You get what you pay for and it accommodates all your needs.

I was very surprised by the bed quality. Overall, the room was clean. The bathroom was also surprisingly clean. Tub white. I think they just remodeled the room because most of the room looked new. Regardless, you can't beat it for the price point!

Hotel accommodated all my needs for a good low price. Area had decent dining options not too far away and area seemed safe. Would be even better if there was a small breakfast in the morning but they did have coffee. I am a happy customer and would be returning as long as the price remains low.

Would recommend

Somewhat low price for S Diego, but quite satisfactory. Great shower. Fridge, microwave, TV cable, clean carpet that doesn’t turn the soles of my feet black. Nice lighting.
