    The Hotel was situated in the perfect place and easy to get to. The smoke alarm in the room kept going off when I was in the shower and the sink was not... completely clean. There was dust on the top of the picture frames and on top of the TV. The linens were clean and the air conditioner worked, and the Hotel was relatively quiet. I would stay there again. by Michele B  from San Fernando, CA on 10/29/10

    Room was clean. Everything was in working order. Housekeeping kept hounding us at 11am even though check out was at 12 noon. Decent free continental breakfast with coffee, oj, milk, cereal, pastries. Not bad for a one nighter if you are on a budget. No issues with noise or parking.

    I stayed at the Howard Johnson Seaworld Inn Hotel off of Rosencrans Street last time I visited San Diego. That hotel was amazingly clean, friendly and in a great location. So, I decided to stay at this Howard Johnson Inn, which is located down the street from the other hotel. I gave it try and was highly disappointed. The room was not clean. The hiar […] dryer had either blood or bbq sauce stuck all over the cord, the air conditioner was leaking water and the bed was poorly made with sheets that looked like they have been used for centuries. If I stay at a Howard Johnson Inn, it will not be this one ever again...it will be the Howard Johnson Seaworld Inn, down the street. Read more

    This hotel is located by the highway, which was great for us as we had a car, but not good if you do not and want to visit the main attractions in downtown. We had booked a room with a king size bed, but when we arrived they said they had no rooms available with a king size bed. We did not mind and agreed to room with the queen size bed instead, as […] we are not that tall anyway, but we wondered what the whole point of having a RESERVATION is then? The rooms are quite spacious and comfortable, but definitely NOT clean. I moved the bed side table in an attempt to plug my cell phone charger to the power outlet and there it was: a used condom!! I reported it to the front desk clerk when leaving for the day and he faintly apologized. When we returned, it was gone, but the carpet was still very dusty. I do not think they vacuum very often and if they do, they definitely do not move the furniture! Breakfast consists of a limited option of juice, coffee, milk, cereals, pastries and toasts, and there is not much room for tables to sit. Our room was located on the top floor and on the back, which is the farthest from the reception, and I guess the access point signal did not reach those rooms, and it is the reason why the WiFi worked horribly. So if you plan to stay at this hotel and need a good wireless Internet connection, make sure they give you a room on the ground floor and near the front. We were disappointed and next time we will try a cleaner budget hotel. Read more

    Ótimo custo benefício, perto das atrações e pontos turísticos da cidade (se vc estiver de carro), porém não é nada luxuoso. A lavanderia não tinha sabão disponível para venda e a secadora estava quebrada. Hotel necessita de uma reforma. Importante ressaltar que eles tem um café da manhã bom comparado com a média.
