We were skeptical about booking here since we like to stay in nicer hotels. This time around we went on a budget, we had a great time and an awesome stay! The hotel was older, but was well kept. Our room was remodeled. Was bigger than expected. Clean bedroom n bathroom, comfy beds! We stayed in the 4th floor and it was pretty quiet. Breakfast buffet was way better than we expected. We were there 3 nights and breakfast changed every other day. From scrambled eggs one day, to cheese omelettes the other. Pancakes one day, waffles the other. Fruit, yogurt, oatmeal options. They could deff upgrade their coffee, but beggars can’t be choosers. Their staff was great! For the price this option was great and we were within 10-20 mins from zoo, sea world and La Jolla. Worth every penny! Will deff book here again!!

The pool and hot tub area was nice however towels were not regularly stocked. The free breakfast was nice, however the taste of eggs and meat was not pleasant. Maybe offer more options for fresh cracked eggs. The hotel was noisy when fully booked. The cleaning service was fantastic. Great cleaning staff.

There was no hot water for the shower on both nights and the toilet kept clogging after normal use. Also, the fold-out sofabed was horribly uncomfortable with sagging and the feel of the bedsprings popping through. The room was against the freeway which was very loud all night long. Between the horrible sofa bed and the freeway noise, I was not able to sleep.

The price for what we got was good. The price for parking is comical cuz you can park on the street for free, which is what we did. The room’s floor was dirty in areas. The windows must be single pain cuz we could hear the highway all night and cold air was getting through, which wasn’t a big deal cuz we could adjust the heating accordingly. Breakfast was hot and good. We liked that breakfast was open a little later than some other hotels because we’re late risers. The body wash smelled like Playdough. The staff was always responsive, just not smiley. The luggage carts were very worn down, but at least they had them. Overall, our stay was good.
