Clean sheets and towels. unfortunately the room wreaked like cigarette smoke which was extremely uncomfortable and caused us severe headaches, carpet and furniture was really stained and there was a huge sticky mess in the counter top Staff was always friendly and helpful

10/10 Exceptional

excellent choice for any San Diego touring

Nice location with a waffle station. Only major complaint was the breakfast could have used some protein options, but still really good and well stocked. The location was perfect, close to the Marine Bootcamp depot and near the airport. Also close to all touristy events, though not as "walkable" as advertised. It is 35 35-minute walk to the base main entrance.

Room is super dirty and sad condition.

I have used hotel.com and the hotels within this establishment. This hotel by far is the worst. I got some assistance from a hotel.com rep.

Vivian, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Not Amazing, but Definitely a Good Budget Hotel

The staff was kind, check in fast, and rooms were clean. The hotel definitely shows its age and could use some updates to replace worn carpet or the cabinet for the mini-fridge and microwave. The breakfast area was also much too small for the number of guests. So, I am glad we did not pay more for what we got, and I don't think we could spend much more than just one night. That said, the location was great! The room was clean and the price was excellent. I would stay here again for one night.

Cindy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I felt that the location is great. There are several walkable places close by. The area is quiet and I felt safe too. The only down side was the pool wasn't clean during my stay so it couldn't be used. The staff was helpful. I love that breakfast was included also.
