Horrible bed, shower, and service. This hotel needs a serious upgrade.

Great price, clean room, great location. Plus they have a pool and hot tub. I don't know how anyone could post a bad review, if you want 5 star service, pay 300 a night. If you want and clean place to stay for a good value, stay here.

This hotel is a no frills, low cost hotel. If you are looking for value, it is pretty good for the cost. If you like new or nice, it is not for you. I had one complaint, NOISE. The first room they put me in was on the corner of the property facing a major street and the traffic noise made sleeping difficult. I asked if they could move me and they took […] care of it. The second room was much quieter but the building is older. The windows are single pane and do not block much noise. If you are a light sleeper, I recommend ear plugs or a different location.

Is a great place to stay on. The gardens is one of the best places of the hotel. Thank u for making me feel welcome in California.

Front desk people were ok but they only have one person assisting at night so if you need extra pillows or blankets you have to go and get it. Rooms were ok. Clean but the bedding you can tell that they dont spend too much on it bc one of my bed had a comfort with a big patch.

Finding Room was very difficult! Only A 2 story building traveling with a small child not easy navigating stairs not fun. They also rent out rooms daily,weekly,monthly. They also said kitchenette in rooms the only sink was in bathroom! Security cameras everywhere!! The only plus it was only 15 mins from SeaWorld and Old Town San Diego

All the rooms face the interior courtyards with fountain (off during the nighttime) or pool, with the only entrances being the lobby and a keyed access gate. Pool was nice temperature and spa was excellent - open until 10pm so you really have time to relax after day activities. A number of rooms are extended stay - by the week or month - so people are […] actually cooking on their kitchenettes - which made it feel more homey. The neighborhood seemed a little bad - but all the parking is in the hotel lots and I was pleasantly surprised to see a hired security guard patrolling. I felt very safe. The in-room hotel guide was succinct and complete, totally geared for just this hotel - so it was very easy to find the nearest type of restaurant I wanted and the closest store. I am very sensitive to cigarette smoke and it was very clear that my room not been smoked in. Read more

We liked the kitchenette. The place is old but pretty clean & the parking lot could use some maintenance. The shower went from too hot to too cold every 30 seconds or so which was very annoying. Front desk staff too busy on the phone & walkie with other staff to give us any attention at checkout.

The hotel room is comfortable, with cable TV. The free breakfast buffet is good, including muffins, bread, milk, juice, coffee, and fruit orange.

Why would the front desk put a solo traveler next to a family in such close quarters? And why put a non-smoker next door to a smoker? I'm a live and let live person but I don't want to smell or inhale other people's smoke. First day, wandering from the lobby through the maze of buildings, I walked past/through several people smoking in the hallways […] outside their rooms. Ugh. Just after my "neighbors" came in at 3:15AM, a car alarm went off and on for the next few hours. Ugh. I was in town on business, so obviously it made for a long day. I had reserved two nights but left after one. No one questioned why I was leaving early, perhaps b/c I had prepaid. I understand my experience is no one's "fault" but it still left a bad taste for me, and I won't be going back. Read more

I did not like this hotwl at all, they wanted to charge 9.00 a day for internet when most hotels are offerring it free. The way this hotel states things on its website, s very misleading. I sat down on the side the bed and sunk into the box springs..Would recommend this hotel upgrade as son as they can.

Disappointed the hotel wanted to charge for internet access. When I checked out, I did not receive a receipt. The flyer advertised a continental breakfast - there wasn't one.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We had a great stay. Our son lives in San Diego and we will more than likely stay at this hotel again when visiting.

Stayed here before, returned because of the convenience of the location. The property is old and tired. It is fairly clean and functions well enough. This is not for everyone. Appears to be nontraditional hotel. Has long term guest.

I always have stayed here,however this stay was not a good one .My shower was so low I had to bend backwards to shower.there was a light out in the closet .Ice machine wasn't working and when I asked the front desk it was like they didn't care at all, So I went and bought my own Ice.quality of the stay was not good at all this time.Not sure what happened […] .

Neighborhood not glamorous, but a great Greek restaurant, Alladin, across the street. Right off 805. Value is excellent. Kitchenette and bare bones breakfast included for often as low as $55/night

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

There are only two rooms that are suitable for a person in a wheelchair. While the room itself met all the ADA standards and had a roll-in shower, both of these rooms are located in the front of the hotel which is right on the main boulevard. It was VERY noisy at all hours from traffic and the thin windows. I put ear plugs in and I could still hear […] the traffic. Also, the room is small & didn't have the regular kitchenette the other rooms had. The bed was not very comfortable. If I wasn't handicapped, I would request a room inside the courtyard and definately would rebook. The Aladdin restaurant across the street is awesome. Read more

Excellent room with a fantastic price. I had no issues checking in after midnight-I rang the bell and someone was there to hand me my keys. The room was clean and tidy upon arrival. The location is very good as it's right off the interstate and it was not noisy at night. I experienced no issues during my stay. The only thing that would have made it […] perfect is if internet was provided for free (wired or wireless) Read more

solid bargain

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

should stop advertizing "breakfast"--not worth the walk from the room. They have drastically cut down on breakfast--pour milk out of a common gallon jug, no dry cereal, no bagels, no cream cheese, no butter, no bananas, no hard boiled eggs--all of which were present last time I was there--only little packets of oat meal and real old oranges--PATHETIC--and […] I paid $20 more a night to stay there over the lower priced motels in the area--the rooms are not worth the extra $20--they need to reduce the price to where it was 6 months ago.

I will not be staying there again. Staff very unfriendly upon my arrival. No Greeting. The room was very clean. The Hotel is more like a Motel and quite old. Luckily the grounds were nice and gated. Not in a great neighborhood. The pool is really in need of replastering. I would not use it. The breakfast was pretty awful. Store bought stale pasteries. […] Powered creamer. The only fruit was oranges. They did have juice and packaged instant oatmeal. Read more

Good security, clean, and convenient location. Fair price, however the free continental breakfast consisted only of oranges, juice, coffee and oatmeal both mornings of my stay. Big disappointment since this was one of the amenities that I thought made the rate a good deal. Also, no free Internet.

The hotel accommodated handicap accessible with accessible bath tub including handicap seating, but not two queen beds. Room was clean but the nonsmoking room was next door to a smoking tenant. Air freshener and fabric freshener helped eliminate musty odors.

Really dingy, dead bug on walls.

kinda looked more like a apartment not some where we would stay agian the other guest looked like they lived there

No hot water!!! Very frustrated!!!!

The front desk man was very courteous and polite throughout our stay. We were satisfied with the price and service and in general consider it was a very nice trip. We would definitely return here for our next visit.

Fifties-era hotel. Room was large and clean. However, walls were paper thin so music and tv from the next room were annoying. Room overlooked hotel maintenance shed which was being used at 5 am! Ask for a room in the back of the property.

This hotel is very close to my brother's house, so we had booked to come with the family this summer, but then had to cancel because of a change of plans. We recently stayed in order to attend a funeral, and I have to say that I was very disappointed. For breakfast there was NOTHING for someone with diabetes to eat - not one thing with whole grain, […] nothing with protein (hard boiled eggs are inexpensive and easy), and there wasn't even oatmeal (would have liked some instant, unsweetened). I was also very surprised that you advertise the kitchenettes, but provide NOTHING in order to actually use them. Usually a place with a kitchenette will have at least a few pots and pans, plates and cups, a few utensils. If I had showed up with my family this last summer, I would have had to either go buy everything to cook with or we would have had to go out to eat - and either way it would have defeated the entire purpose of cooking at the hotel to avoid extra costs and expensive restaurants. The Best Western across the street was a much nicer hotel and we could have stayed there for less money (others in our party stayed there). You won't find me booking California Suites again - sorry.

Service was very responsive.

The hotel was good. It had a small kitchen and refrigerator which I really like. However, the sheets did not look very clean. One of the staffs was rude and treated me like I was there to ask for money or something.

I book this thinking it would be a nice place but when I got there+ it was a disaster the room was dirty the bed sheets were stained and the microwave was broken. I paid for the superior sweet and was told when I checked in was told there was absolutelt no difference between any of the rooms. I thought that was a bit of false advertising myself.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We had booked it for 7 nights, but did not stay here for even one. The moment we entered the feel of the hotel itself was not good. We booked it based on 3.7 rating from trip advisor, but that was very misleading. We were allocated a room and went for lunch and tried checking in after 2 hrs, the room was not ready and the room service lady asked us […] to get another room from reception. The sheets smelled, the room was dusty and the bed were hard spring. The only good point was the manager. When we complained and expressed our wish to checkout immediately she honored it without any fuss and offered a unconditional apology as well. Thanks to her for saving our christmas. Read more

Great service, convenient, comfortable--excellent quality for the price. Wanted more for continental breakfast as was sparse. But everything else was fabulous! Older hotel with the amenities of the better hotels. Will definitely stay there again!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel is conveniently located near highway 805, while the surrounding neighbourhood doesn't yield a feeling of safety in the evenings. The room has microwave and fridge, which is nice for out-of-town vacation trip of 2-4 days. While the hotel provides breakfast, it only has muffins, oranges, juice and coffee. The muffins always ran out and the […] person servicing the breakfast room was slow, unfriendly and reluctant to serve additional trays even though dozens of people were waiting. Many ended up just having oranges or coffee. Overall, the price is fine for the hotel. You can probably find better ones if you're looking for better quality of service. Read more
