    Good enough to stay for a night for the price. Pleasant Staff.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Very unsanitary

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Smell bad

  • Engine customer May 2026

    I never leave negative reviews, but this motel was just the cherry on top. I wouldn’t recommend this place to stay at not even for a NIGHT. It stinks like Cigarets, It definitely wasn’t cleaned before they checked it out to us, since another persons UNDERWEAR & SOCKS were hanging on the shower curtain. To top it off, there was cigaret burns on the bed sheets. SUCH A DISGUSTING PLACE. Do not spend your money here. If you have children with you, DO NOT STAY HERE it smells horrible and it is not sanitary at all.

    Great and cheap pricing for a getaway night

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Was ok

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Ok for what I needed.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    A plain and simple lodging for sleeping and resting that was the lowest price point for two days. Clean, uncluttered, freeway close, tv, air. Best part is the concierge at the front desk. Very friendly, very helpful, explained the charges and procedures very thoroughly and clearly. I’ll be back.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Very comfortable and affordable

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Room was alright, about what you would expect for the price. Parking lot was sketchy. Whole neighborhood around it was too. Amenities were few, a towel and about it.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    Clean room quiet and staff was nice and helpful

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    My first impression it looked a little rough parking was a little sketchy found the front desk person in the liquor store that’s connected to the hotel but once we got our key card the rooms was clean and wash room was easy accessible, place was quiet at night

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    It was a clean place to sleep and we enjoyed our time in San Diego.

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    My room was big and very functional. Hot water all the time and TV work perfectly. Thank you!

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    Not what is advertised. Where to begin.... the sheets? It looked like someone had just gotten out of bed. The sheets where beyond worn out.

  • Engine customer Feb 2026
