Friendly Staff, Horrific Building

The staff were friendly and helpful, but the building itself is awful. You will hear every footstep, every conversation, etc, around you, and planes from the SD airport shake the building all day. The door to my room had a massive gap along two full sides, and there were roaches in my room.

This was a great place to stay when having to catch an early morning flight. Definitely lots of planes flying over as they approached the airport but the noise didn't bother us and it was fun watching them.

This property would get a lot better rating if one could actually sleep in it. The walls and floors and ceilings are paper thin so you can hear the other guests all night. Except when the jets come by every couple minutes. There is absolutely no noise mitigation in this hotel. It was a nightmare

Provides the basic necessities, it's a little dated, on par with the budget price. One huge bonus is for airplane spotters, the motel is across the street from the San Diego airport runway and you can spot planes landing almost directly over the motel. Try to get a room with a balcony to watch them. Noise was not an issue getting to sleep.

My stay was one night and it was good. I was prepared for the overflights from the airport nearby so it wasn’t a problem for me. In my room, the lights next to the bed didn’t work. The lamp on the desk had no bulb so I was dependent on the main overhead lights. There was water under the floor tile in the bathroom so when you step there the water came up and wet your feet. These things were inconvenient but didn’t affect my stay much.
