Great value hotel, excellent central location to almost anywhere in SD. Rooms are older but also larger due to that so the extra space is appreciated. Ive stayed 4 times and keep coming back, great staff, plenty of off street parking, reasonably quiet given the proximity to major roads. Some rooms have large closets to stage suitcases and personal stuff like shoes. Wifi was good i always recommend using a VPN as well. I did not get a room with a kitchen (intentional) but there are rooms you could cook in. Bed was comfortable as were the pillows all in all an excellent budget hotel to staybat when in SD.

Booked 5 nights 1st night we checked In late due to issue with our flight, asked for quite room we were given room right next to highway very noisy. The next morning I asked to be moved and the desk associate told me she has a nice room available near the pool. As I started to get my things ready she came to the room and asked for the key back and said that room wasn’t available and would give us a diffusion when available. She did give us another room and this room overlooked a gas station, very disappointing and the hallways were very dingy and the room looked much nicer online and would rate a 3 out of a 10

We stayed for one night and it sufficed - would probably not stay for two night. I don’t know if we just got a bad room but the bed was awful. Creaked and shook when getting in and moving around and we thought we were going to fall through the bed during the night. Area felt a little sketch, but it was alright! Like I said, it was fine for a one night stay.

Okay

The first night was not that good. The room that we stayed in smelled, had ants, the beds were hard with the pillows were very lumpy and had some other issues. We got in late so we couldn't change rooms that day. The next day I went to the office to see if I can a different room because of the issues that the room had. They were more than happy to switch rooms for us. The second room was better. It smelled clean there was no ants. The only thing was the beds. My bed felt that I was going to sink in the middle of it and the pillows were the same as the first room. It was not a bad place to stay for the price.

Very outdated

We booked the renovated room and it was still quite old and really dirty carpet. The restroom is small and the side/back parking just seems sketchy.. We had to book almost last minute to attend funeral. For the price, the quality is very low. If it was less expensive it’s ok for a 1 or 2 night trip.

Bed mattress is the worst I’ve ever experienced. Air conditioning unit super loud right above the bed. Door in between rooms is not secured. Simple latch only I found the door partially opened when I arrived in my room. Didn’t feel safe sleeping thinking the door can just be pushed open with very little force.
