We could hear a lot of noise (outside cars movement in street and people walking in halls). The place was clean, however when we came inside the room the bleach odor was too much, I feel it made the room smell weird. We were visiting family for one day, so it was convenient for the night, just not the our best experience or the most comfortable place to really rest.

Arrived very late after a long day of travel, otherwise would not have stayed here once I saw the room. Room was low-level motor lodge level. Clean, but no frills and badly maintained. “Two queen beds” were actually double beds and rock hard, like sleeping on the floor. A/C was loud and rattles. Light in front room did not work. Backs right on to the freeway so loud traffic noise. Continental breakfast was an afterthought with everything out of stock including the coffee. The pictures and reviews on this site made it seem like a pretty decent place, can’t believe it’s the same place.

Tv/internet sucked. House keeping tried to come in to clean our room when we hadn’t even checked out yet. Bed was decent. Noisy/thin walls/freeway. Rooms in general are worn down but you get what you pay for. Staff were friendly though.

This hotel is super clean and convenient if you need a night's stay around San Marcos or Carlsbad. The check in and customer service were great. It's a really good value if you need a place to stay for the night.

This hotel SHOULD NOT be in the Wyndham Family of hotels. It has to be the absolute WORST Days Inn in the entire chain of hotels. How do you claim you have a breakfast, when literally it's a single waffle maker, a toaster and some pre-packaged pastries? You have toast, but no butter for it. You have a kraft of milk, but no cereal. And the pancake batter tasted like your workers perfume that she wore that morning. Just NASTY !! Now about the room...... The floors had not been swept or mopped in who knows how long. The beds need to be completely replaced. There was not a flat area on either bed. And the bathroom was so tiny, that only one person could be in it or you couldn't close the door. No fan in the bathroom either, which is just ridiculous. The carpet down the hallway looked like it was the original from when the hotel was built in the 70's. Dirty, smelly and just disgusting. Don't believe the pictures of this hotel, because they were taken decades ago. Don't bother even thinking about this property. RUN AWAY AS FAST AS YOU CAN !!

The property is old and right next to a busy freeway. The front door did not securely close...gaps all around and we could not turn on the faucet in the bathroom to the shower. The staff was great and the room was generally clean, but really showing wear and tear.
