8/10

My decision to book here was a value decision as the price was very reasonable and it was located near the airport. The room was pretty bare, as expected, however, the bed was very soft and not comfortable for my wife and I.

Made reservation Apr 30, 2025. Change/cancel info says charge for cancellation made after 6:00pm local time on June 6, 2025 are subject to property fee equal to first night’s rate plus taxes and fees. When I cancelled on June 7, 2025 I was told rate, taxes, and fees for full stay were non-refundable. Had you told me that on April 30, 2025 there would have been no reservation. Please refund the excess payment charged to my credit card.

2-night trip

6/10

The property was close to downtown and a quick Uber ride to everywhere. The rooms and towels were clean. Parking was available as well. The carpets in the common areas needed cleaning and replacement. The property just lacked a cleaning crew in general. Construction was going on, and there was a lot of traffic noise, including sirens.
2-night trip

6/10

For the price it’s acceptable, but the property needs some work in all areas.
3-night trip

8/10

For what it’s worth, I think it was perfect. Cozy room that served its purpose while I spent the weekend in San Diego.
2-night trip

4/10

Online pics of the hotel are considerably better than what you will find in person. Somebody needs to buy this property, demolish it and start over.

That staff was amazing my wife and family stayed here while my mother was in the hospital although I stayed at the hospital my wife stayed here and the staff made her feel happy,safe and at home. Thank you. My only recommendation is to clean up the homeless around the building.
