This is the second time I’ve stayed here. One clean property, and I’m picky! For the price, I don’t think you’ll find another property like this close to Pacific Beach. 10/10 recommend.

For the price it did the job, no bed bugs, 1 of the two matts was well used which made it much more comfortable that firmer mattress in most hotels. Door had air gaps so you will see an occasional knat if coming in summer. Staff was great and helpful. Your down the street from PB so for the price, we enjoyed our stay.

Location is excellent for Pacific Beach. Cute local motel. They're in process of remodeling so hopefully bathrooms get better- weird old tile. Bring soap and shampoo. I feel it is a very good value purchase.

One of the best deals you could find in San Diego! I spent a long time looking for a cheap yet comfortable motel and this was the best option. Had everything you could need for a few days in the city. Room included a fridge, microwave, and TV- all big sizes. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Exterior of motel also makes it a comfortable environment. The outdoor decoration and location was a bonus.

Motel is in poor condition, location was terrible, staff was friendly and it’s very dog friendly so that’s the only redeeming quality of this place. It needs a total renovation, should mow over and rebuild probably.

Property itself is a little outdated and on a very busy street, but these did not bother us at all. I have to mention this in case someone is picky where they stay. This hotel is very basic but helped us tremendously for a one night stay. Bed was comfy. AC, TV with option to log in to streaming services, hairdryer, mini fridge, microwave, towels, bar soaps, included. No carpet (hence, no allergies yaye!). Parking is AMAZING. Pets stay free. There's 3 trash bins in the room (a plus, as I've been to hotels with just one!!!) Property itself is quiet and peaceful (besides the busy street but they can't control that). In and Out is super close. Check In and out were a breeze. My only recommendation is to have at least 2 keys per room instead of just 1. Thank you for our stay, and much appreciation to Alex who is friendly and accommodating!
