This was a complete disaster of a motel...don't even know where to start, except maybe ask for a refund first...not one picture of this place on the website is a true representation of the actual property... it is torn up from the floor up. All 3 floors I can't believe it was a Wyndom property, the bed was might as well been concrete, bathroom disgusting shower and tub tv hanging half way off the wall I fixed it properly didn't want to get charged having them think I did it. The staff was friendly though I'll give them credit for that. The breakfast was a joke...the whole property has construction equipment around it and carpet in the room was disgusting.

My only drawback was that there is repairing and I imagine updating going on. My room area was going to be next in repair/updated. Trust me, it is ready for that. I know many people may not have realized but you had to pay Close Attention to the faucets in the bathroom sink and shower. If you didn’t pay Close Attention, they would continue to leak water. So I learned the best way to turning them completely off. Your front desk personnel were extremely friendly and helpful. Great people.

Disgusting room

The room was almost uninhabitable. The baseboards were coming off next to the wall by the bathroom. I found 2 bugs crawling on the walls. The paint was chipped in several places, and it was overall very rundown, old and dirty. I was supposed to stay there a week, but ended up leaving.

Do not recommend!

Hotel was a dump and in middle of construction. Our room smelled like someone was smoking at open doorway and hotel couldn't fabrezze it enough. Not to mention the police banging on a door at midnight because of a disturbance that requires fire department and ambulance. No security to call as phone in room was disconnected. I should have researched it more but it reminded me of those motels people go to shoot up. How this property is in a good area if Encinitas is crazy.
