It was just a place to sleep for one night the deposit was $250 which was a lil crazy. It was a rough area and there was quite a few homeless outside the property but they would stay out there so that’s good. The room had a dingy smell once inside and needed new towels they were so old and over used. The cherry on top was the blood stains on the curtain. But I survived the stay. Also the staff was super friendly.

Pros: Great price. Good location just about 10-15 minutes from Sea World and the San Diego Zoo. They had a basic breakfast of cereal, yogurt, oatmeal, and Juices in the morning which was nice and they cleaned our room (including making our bed, taking out the trash, and replenishing our towels while we were gone. Staff was good. Check in prosses was very quick and while I wouldn't say the employee was overly friendly, he was efficient and answered all my questions. The only con was that when we arrived in the early evening there were a few people congregating in the parking lot who looked a little suspect but we had no problems at all.

My wife and 2 children didn’t even spend the night due to all of the prostitution activity in front of the hotel. Hotel staff first assigned a room that was already occupied. Assigned new room, okay but nothing special. They didn’t see any other families at the hotel, mostly single men. They went out to explore San Diego and returned 4 hrs later. Not comfortable with the hotel, they rented a room at another hotel in another city.
