It’s great for a 2 star. Clean. Bed was good. Shower wasn’t hot. Towels are old. They are rough and more of a gym towel. Property is dark and parking is tight.

Desperate Times

It wasn’t that clean, there was a mystery stain on my pillow, there was a half drunk Jack in the Box coffee, and the microwave was dirty. There was an inch gap under the door. I was honestly a little scared

This was the worst hotel experience I've had in decades. The room was dark, dingy, dirty. There was a deadbolt but no other security on the door to help keep you safe. The office was not available for entry. You had to conduct your business through a small opening in their window. I left a day early so I could find a better place.

Cozy little motel with the charm of an old one from the 60’s with the small layout. Parking was free and right under the room. Great place for the price and be away from the huddle and bustle of San Diego.

Just what we needed

Is a very little room but is enough for sleeping, is not fancy but it was very clean and easy to access, we have a one bed room and was very comfortable, the parking was free and next to our room, and the price was very convenient for what we needed, I was a little expecting after reading the bad reviews but we just needed a place to sleep for the night and this was the best choice, is not a vacation destination but if you just need to rest is a good choice, clean, cozy and comfortable.

A very nice budget hotel

My room was spotless. For a budget hotel it's a bargain.nI stayed over the weekend Fri, Sat, Sun and Mon. It was very quiet with almost no activity the area in front and by the rooms were neat and in order. I would recommend this hotel.

For the price paid, the room should be more cleaner, the sheets were having stains, the bathroom shower was defective, water coming underneath of faucet, when trying to use it, towels needs to be replaced, as they are in pretty bad shape.The fridge was bigger than what we usually see in a hotel room, AC was working fine, flat TV on the wall working properly as well, WiFi was ok .
