Everything in the hotel was a little bit dirty, it looked like the toilet needed cleaning, the shower had a leak, sink didn't drain completely, there were not enough towels provided, sheets had stains, but were recently cleaned, the bed didn't have a fitted sheet only the top sheet on top of the comforter and there was no trash can provided in the room which was wildly inconvenient as they provide soap and shampoo packets that need to be thrown out after opened. The mini fridge was very powerful, my drinks stayed nice and cold, it did freeze my fruit, but I just needed to put them on a lower shelf. Wifi was strong and consistent, no random outages. Lots of parking available. Close to Vista town square, full of nice hospitable people and great restaurants. This place was definitely affordable, but cost more than what was provided.

When I arrived to check in, no one was at the front desk and I had to wait for them to get off lunch, at midnight. They gave us a room that reeked of cigarettes. Asked for a new one, they moved us. The next morning my friend showered and they bath tub leaked all over the floor and then the office guy came up telling us to pack our stuff they’re moving us rooms, because the water is leaking into their office. I said okay well where are we moving to? They said they’ll let us know in two hours. I had to go shower at the EOS gym. We didn’t get our new room in two hours. We left for the morning to the farmers market came back 3ish hours later and had to ask them about the new room. They give me a new one, I go and check it for the smell. Again reeks of cigarettes. My friend is pregnant and her baby is under 1 years old. We don’t want to smell disgusting. I went and told them again it smells like cigarettes. The guy went with me to get a new room and he opened one, smelled waaay worse and much stronger cigarette smells. Horrible. I said no not this one. They open the other one, 4 rooms later we finally have our room on day 2 of being here. Shower curtains are fabric so they get the floors wet. It should be plastic. Hate it. Extremely humid in all the rooms. TVs don’t work or missing remotes. Two shower towels. One wash rag. One drying towel. Not nearly enough. They leave a half empty toilet paper on the roll and then have a new one for you. Don’t stay here no matter how cheap.

Worst place ever

This is the worst place I have ever stayed. Picture a hotel where crack heads hangout. It look nice on the website. We tried to check in at 3 but the room wasn’t ready. In fact it wasn’t ready until 8pm. What ever they used to clean the room burned our eyes. I was going to say screw it and go to another hotel but nothing was available. I can’t believe you guys would have something like this on your website.

The room smell like cigarettes the toilet was loose. You couldn’t even sit on it. There was no remote control it. The mirrors weren’t even clean right the curtains were hanging. Didn’t stay more than an hour and I left. I went to a better location and comfortable I do not recommend this location unless you are a drug user drug seller or hooker because that’s what the hotels about.

In a pinch.

There was a drifter harassing people in the parking lot. Then he kept following people back and forth. Running around the place. Unsettling. He saw me and got spooked cuz I saw a girl he was trying to get in her car. So I went to pretend I was her boyfriend. He left her alone. Room was decent. Bathroom was dirty. Mainly the sink and under toilet lid. Ladies have pepper spray or don’t go alone.
