  • Free wireless, free parking, close to the interstate, within walking distance of a couple restaurants.
  • Free breakfast, but no meat (bacon, sausage, etc); unappealing hot tubs, bad room layout.

“I got a discounted rate on 4th of July weekend. We got to the hotel early (10 am) and were able to check in because they had rooms ready. They first gave us a room that had not been checked out of (I walked into a room where there were bags that were still unpacked). They apologized for the mistake and let me pick the location of the replacement room. The room layout is terrible. The living space is cramped and doesn't leave much space for luggage. The desk and chair is pretty much in the kitchen, very awkward. The bathroom sink is separate from the toilet/shower, but the shower area is teeny tiny. There is a free, hot breakfast (at least on the weekends). The food is okay, but there is no meant. No bacon, sausage, etc. Mostly baked goods, waffles, cereals, eggs, potatoes. The pool area is okay quality (a bit small for the size of the property), though the perimeter area of the pool is narrow, leaving not much space for chairs and lounges. There are several hot tubs scattered around the property. Some look like they haven't been cleaned in weeks, others are okay.”

  • Kitchen.
  • No restaurant.

“Great facilities and staff, but without a restaurant. It's in a very quiet area, which is nice, but also not near many restaurants or facilities.”

  • The room was big enough for 4 people.
  • Parking was very tight.

“This was a nice enough hotel. The room was clean, the facilities were nice. Not the most comfortable bed, but okay for one night.”

  • Newly remodeled, hot tub near our room, nice breakfast, safe & quiet location, free parking.
  • No hot tub by the pool, hot tubs were throughout the buildings which was nice, but wanted a hot tub near the pool to watch kids in pool.

“Newly remodeled rooms, kitchens in rooms, free internet, nice breakfast, safe & quiet location, free parking, grocery store and restaurants nearby, easy access to freeway. Would definitely stay again in the future!”

  • Close to UCSD, full kitchen.
  • Under renovation, a bit shabby.

“The hotel is more like an apartment building and is under renovation until June 09. Our room was right where the delivery trucks were unloading new furniture, wallpaper, and LG TV's. I might give it another try after the remodel.”

  • Room, free hot breakfast.
  • Too far from main area of city.

“The renovations really make this hotel stand out. We loved it with the exception of the location. We had a car so driving wasn't an issue, but I wouldn't recommend this hotel to people without transportation as it's pretty far from town.”

  • The location is great.
  • There were too many kids staying there. The breakfast was too busy with guests.

  • The dinning room attendant was friendly helpful and hard working great staff.

“The staff was very helpful and the room was cozy, wish we had the time to swim and use the Jacuzzi, front desk staff was great and the breakfast had something for every one. Would love to go back and stay again.”

  • The hot tub and the free breakfasts and
    host bar and food.
  • The rooms and furniture were well worn- not fancy.

“We found it a good place with 2 young kids . we appreciated the free breakfasts, which included waffles, sausage, eggs, fruit , yogurt etc. Also on Monday-Wednesday nights from 5-7:00 pm there was more free food and beer/wine - enough food to make it like a lite dinner. Staff were helpful. They are renovating the rooms, but there was no noise or other issues for us. With some room renovation (eg new furniture, new appliances) the hotel will be great. Bottom floors (its a 2 level townhouse style) were dark - we moved to the top floor which was better. Initially hot tub was set too cold, we asked for it to be turned up and it was. We used the hot tub every day after that. Plus the BBQ one day. Its not fancy but good for anyone willing to drive a bit out of San Diego proper.”

  • Hot breakfast was super and quite fresh.
  • A bit difficult to find.

“Very quiet and peaceful. Ample parking but the spaces are small. We really loved the fresh, hot breakfast each morning. The bed was comfy. The temperature controls were esy to use. Always had enough towels. It's a repeat.”

  • Location was great.
  • Parking was difficult.

“The hotel exceeded my expectations for the price. It was very clean and comfortable. Bed was very comfortable. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Location was perfect... very close to I-5 and quiet. Thanks
Residence Inn. P.S. Parking areas were small, but if you have a handicapped sticker, there is plentiful parking.”
