This hotel is affordable, but it is literally right next to the airport so it is a bit noisy. The property is quite old, but they do try to maintain it the best they can. Once again, this hotel was affordable.

WOW the location! Couldn't ask for better. Minutes from Old Town, minutes from Seaport, minutes from the USS Midway, minutes from Coronado Island, minutes from the Gaslamp Quarter and Balboa Theatre where we saw a show. We were so so pleased with the convenient central location. The bed was among the comfiest motel or hotel beds I've ever slept on. The room had a mini fridge but no microwave. There was a communal microwave for guest use in the laundry room, along with a couple of vending machines. But do be aware that the motel is situated directly under the flight path for planes landing at the San Diego airport, and the runway they are heading for begins one block down on the other side of the street. So when they come over the motel on their descent, they are almost close enough to touch. They seemed to fly over every 2-3 minutes: busy airport I guess! This didn't bother me as I sleep with earplugs regardless of where I am, including at home. But if you're a light sleeper, you may want to take this fact into consideration. As always, we love that dogs stay free! The planes didn't bother me so I'd 100% book this place again.

Disliked: Amenities
They don’t provide shampoo in the room nor a hair dryer. You literally have to go to the front desk and get a hair dryer and shampoo. The ceiling fan in the bathroom did not work. So the mirror fogged up quickly. Lastly when I called to confirm my reservation the guys asks me my name I gave him my first and last name. He says that does not match. My last name matched but he was being a Dick because I said Donald instead of Don. This is unacceptable. I clearly gave him my last name which is Italian and I doubt this Motel of 50 some rooms has the same name. I’m short no customer service at all.

Not enough towels, didn’t even provide 1 towel per guest and when I asked to get enough I was told they didn’t have anymore. Room wasn’t cleaned at all throughout our stay and towels were never refreshed. Perhaps if they washed them then they would have enough to give out.

Ugly room, but close to the airport. I wouldn’t stay there for more than 12 hours. At check-in they asked me for a $60 deposit and never returned it, which is the same amount I paid for one night. In other words, I spent $120 on the worst hotel in the area. I do not recommend it.
