Everything was very clean, and the hotel exceeded my expectations. The staff was friendly, and the room was comfortable and well maintained. My only suggestion would be to update the flooring, which would make the property even better. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and would definitely stay here again.

First thing the hotel was clean and room smelled fresh and pleasant. The furniture looked new and was comfortable, making the room feel modern and welcoming.The only issue I noticed was that there were cigarette butts in the hallways. The staff was outstanding, especially Ramsy, the night desk person who helped me to check-in .He was incredibly kind, professional, and helpful throughout my stay. I highly recommend Rancho San Diego Inn & Suites to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable place with exceptional staff. I would definitely stay here again!
