The hot tub was great and it was nice and hot, however, the pool and hot tub area are only open until 8pm. I understand that you get what you pay for but y'all are charging too much for this one. The whole place needs updated, it's kind of falling apart, and the beds are terrible. I guess i know better now 😕.

My family and I traveled with our pets. The facility was very pet friendly. We were greeted by a friendly host upon arrival. Our room was clean and beds were comfortable. Breakfast served was nice, hot, and fresh daily. Plenty of places to eat near by. Gas station and freeways within close proximities. This was a very convenient location. I would definitely stay here again.

This was a last-minute booking for us, as the hotel is one of two close to our daughter's home and the original accommodations for our visit fell through. What a great find! The room was quite satisfactory, clean, well- maintained, convenient, and reasonably priced (considering the cost of hotels in the San Diego area). Staff were helpful, pleasant, and patient. We would stay again by choice should the opportunity arise.

The staff were friendly. Check in was a breeze and the continental breakfast was good - waffle iron, eggs, sausage, a variety of pastries and bagels, yogurt and cereal. A staff person was always at breakfast - refilling as necessary which was great. The pool is small but centrally located and the kids loved it. However, the property was a bit run down. The pillows and bedding had stains on them. The room smelled like steamed broccoli. We found two nickel sized live spiders in our room and a bat was outside the laundry room for 2 nights.
