I enjoyed my stay @ California Suites on Clairemont Mesa Blvd…It’s an older hotel w/a lot of character & city charm with a great staff & accommodations. Central location to get around the city. The cost is very competitive and a great value w/free parking and on site 24 Hr security making the rounds. Highly recommended - you won’t find anything else like it - overall stay was very easy and comfortable. Thanks!

Had a wonderful say at California suites Hotel. It had a very inviting pool, the landscape and palm trees were stunning, had well lit pathways to the rooms. The room was very private with a comfortable bed, clean linens and towels. The facility is professionally managed and had friendly stuff. Great location to be right next to the highway with plenty of options for food nearby.
