Great place. Is usually the most affordable decent place in San Diego, south of North county San Diego & outside of El Cajon. The pond with trees, flowers & spa/pool area are definitely above decent. Very clean rooms and friendly front desk & housekeeping staff

Dated hotel, very nice staff, parking is free but good luck getting a spot. The place was clean, room was roomy enough but in desperate need of updating. The bed was horrible -lumpy and it feels weary worn out. Conveniently located to highway and many local attractions. All and all a decent hotel for people in a budget.

Nice hotel , the room was okay , not the cleanest. I went to take a shower and there was still hair in it from the previous guests. Plus no shampoo/ conditioner bottles. But it is a good hotel for a quick place to sleep.

The staff is kind and attentive. The property is conveniently located to a variety of destinations. The room was clean and the water had great pressure. The property has a pool. They also offered free beverages, which is a nice touch. There are numerous rooms at this two-story property. Nice outdoor walkways within the property.

Good stay, nice people. One of the beds in the 2 double bed room I stayed in This last time was a little bit worn, but still pretty comfortable and the other mattress was fine. I do wish they had microwaves in their standard rooms but you usually have to get an upgraded room for that. Most of the time, you can’t beat the price to stay here, unless you stay in El Cajon or further up north. Staff always greet you when you walk into the lobby and overall I would say this is one of the best (relatively) affordable places to stay in SD. Housekeeping staff are also very friendly and they do an excellent job

You get what you pay for. $50-60 cheaper than other hotels nearby, friendly staff, however my bed and “clean” towels had loads of hair from previous guests. The shower had so little water pressure that it was difficult to shower. The mattress should have been retired 6 years ago. If you want a place to sleep on a road trip for a night it will do, for anything else I would recommend paying a little more for a better experience

Beds were comfy even if they are on the older side. Hotel was clean and the room was nice. My only complaint is that there arent enough mirrors for more than 1 person. The hot tub was amazing and made the stay more enjoyable. Parking was easily found in the hotel lot
