The place is good for the price. Inside the room was clean. It is the outside that is not so clean. For example the stairs leading to the rooms are dirty.

The bed was comfortable and also the room was big enough. It has a microwave and a refrigerator. The air conditioner works well. But the toilet was leaking water, the tv remote control was not functioning and outside was trashy, broken beds and some other debris were just left there.

Enjoyed my stay overall not a bad place to stay if you’re in a pinch financially. Only issues I had were the scrapes and damages on the walls. Also looks like the doors aren’t cleaned very often or very well. Not a great area but not the worst. Staff was very helpful and kind.

It was ok

When I checked in the gentleman that helped me was great. He deserves a raise for his service. The house keeping staff was awful. I asked for trash to be taken out and she did not sweep the floor or give towels or a blanket for the extra bed. And the shower has no pressure. Outside of that it was a great stay

Had roaches inside the room. Smelled like urine along the hallway. The rooms smelled like smoke. The one staff member was helpful but not much he could do besides check people in. Likely one of the worst hotels I have ever seen. Has to stay there because no other rooms were available during Labor Day weekend on short notice.

The hotel was okay. We didn't like the thin 100% Cotton towels. When my husband and I dried off after showeing, we were left with white lint all over our bodies. We'll be taking our own towels if we decide to stay at this Howard Johnson Hotel again as it was for convenience.

This was, THE BEST HOTEL IN CHULA VISTA that I ever stayed at, and I've stayed at many. Their staff is very welcoming, the rooms are so clean and beautifully set up. You really get the most out of your money staying here, I mean it's a studio with a kitchen . It really is your home away from home. If anyone is curious about staying here, DO IT. YOULL END UP EXTENDEDING I PROMISE 😉
