Decent place to stay
My family told me this was a rough part of town and would be full of homeless people. Thankfully that was not the case. It is very clean and orderly. I was on the ground floor and never heard a thing from people around me. It is a budget hotel, so with that perspective it's really nice. The shower has great hot water and complimentary bathing supplies. House keeping everyday. The bed was pretty nice as were the pillows. The bedding was a bit thin. But the heater in the room made things comfortable despite the sparce bedding. Breakfast is pastry or 2 cereal choices. Milk, coffee and juice. The only think that was weird for me was that some people staying there seem to actually live there. My family says, San Diego gives vouchers to the homeless to stay in hotels. Everyone was quiet and clean so it does not affect the quality of the hotel, just not something I'm used to. Next time i visit San Diego I plan to stay here again. I was here 6 nights

You can smell marijuana, sketchy people in the parking lot, loud music right outside our door, people smoking outside their rooms. Not family friendly. Rooms were clean and worked for one night but will never stay here again. I could not sleep.

Staff were nice but super dirty, a lot of renovations need to happen. Don't get me wrong its a motel but we still paying around 154$ a night! The area around is okay has close shopping centres but still very ghetto. Bed sheets are old and floors were sticky and dirty. Its good if you're stuck in the middle of the night and dont want to spend 300 else where. Didnt see bugs so I guess thats a bonus.
