"horrible experience"
I did not realize from photos that it was a motel. I don't believe any of the rooms look like the pictures. We booked 2 rooms. The first was already occupied and the second room had the most horrifying stench. Suffice it to say our stay only lasted 2 seconds. The staff was very gracuoys and helpfulGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"close to job site"
No AC, beds and pillows hard.Outdated.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Ok"
Is ok for the money . I expected worst but it was clean and close to a lot of places. I could use a face liftGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Fine for the Price"
Loved the location. You can easily walk to the restaurants and shopping at Old Town. Room price was excellent. Beds were a little uncomfortable, and walls were paper thin. So, if you have noisy neighbors arguing at 11:45 p.m. like we did, be prepared to wake up! The motel staff were great, and it's so nice they offer a continental breakfast. Also, the […] parking is free, which seems to be a rarity anymore, and is a definite draw to commuters with two cars like my husband and me. Give it a try If you're on a budget and want a convenient central place to stay in San Diego. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Nice hotel, nice room and comfortable bed."
Room was clean, staff was friendly when we checked in at 2 a.m., yes 2 a.m.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The room was a very large and nice. My only issue was with the plumbing as I couldn't get the temperature for my shower to stay the same - one minute almost scalding hot and the next too cold and I never touched the faucet. I could step away but with children that could be an issue. It also made the most horrible groaning noises. I would go back again […] and deal with the shower as I liked the quiet and the space.

"Very happy with stay of 11 nights. Quiet and comfy"
Room was clean. Very well maintained. Liked the little bar area where we could heat water and use refrigerator. Area quiet. No outside noise at all! Staff was very helpful and friendly. I plan on booking here for my future trainings that I have in San Diego. Price was best I have found and I spend 3 hours looking!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"A Diamond in the Rough"
We have stayed previously at Americas Best Value Inns and have been quite satisfied with the reasonable priced lodging, friendly management / staff, comfort, cleanliness of rooms, etc. This was NO exception... We were very happy with the visit. We typically stay on Motel Circle while in San Diego. We have not previously found a motel that we were THAT […] satisfied with that we would be a repeat customer, until now. We discovered it on Hotels.com, best rate for the highest rating. It's not the Hilton but definitely not a Motel 6. It is an older motel with the Old San Diego feel. It's a few blocks from Old Town San Diego. But they have clean, comfortable accommodations (our king bed was VERY comfortable). And with the reasonable pricing, you can spend your dollars enjoying the city's attractions, which are also close.... SeaWorld, Old Town, Airport, Harbor... all within 5 miles, & minutes by car. Thanks, Padre Trail Inn! See you next time! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Padre Trial Inn San Diego - good place"
It's an older hotel that have been received some updating. The room was spacious. Furniture is a little dated. Bathroom was a little cramped and does not have an exhaust fan. No air conditioning, surprise for the San Diego area, even though they offered a portable circulating fan. Staff was friendly. The complimentary breakfast is good - just missing […] the hot waffle as in some other locations. But the price is great. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Oldie but goodie"
This hotel is a little old but nice location. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Beds are not the most comfy but pillows are to die for! Central to most things including sea world. Would stay at again and recommend to my friends and family!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great for the money!"
It was our first time to visit San Diego. We needed something close to sea world and the beach and both were about 5 minutes away. The front desk people were awesome with giving us maps making sure we knew were to go. They help with everything. The hotel was great for the price. A/C worked awesome. Shower worked and the room was clean. For the budget […] we with 3 kids I couldn't ask for anything more. Would stay there again and would tell my friends to stay there as well.

"Padre Value Inn, Old Town San Diego"
The hotel needs work. The drawers didn't all work and one about fell out when I opened it. The air conditioner was turned off and the window in the bathroom was painted shut. The hotel room was very stuffy with no way to circulate air. The maid asked for money. On the brighter side; the bed was comfortable. The location was great. The price was rig […] ht.

"Perfectly adequate"
Nothing fancy, but clean, quiet, comfortable, free continental breakfast, free wireless internet which actually worked, in-room coffee, cable TV. Large room. A good value for the price. Had everything I needed for the small amount of time I spent here.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Very good deal"
Just stayed one night during a business trip and this was perfect for that purpose. Room was clean, hotel office was a little dark and scary, but the man at the desk was nice. Shady looking maintenance guy - same goes for some of my fellow hotel patrons.Genuine Expedia guest review
"No frills...on a budget!"
Recognizing that this is a no-frills establishment, one expects minor inconviences (no on/off switch on the bedside lamp, a hole in the wall, closet door off of its track, etc.) However, the bed was very comfortable and the hotel was quiet -- I got a good night's sleep, so was satisfied.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Best Deal."
Free internet, free car parking, free breakfast, clean room, walk to Old Town restaurants, friendly staffs. Best deal in San Diego.Genuine Expedia guest review

"all great but internet doesn't work!"
I stayed here for almost 3 weeks, and the internet worked only about 3-4 days out of that time. So, given that they have been well aware of the problem for a while and don't seem to be doing anything to fix it, you better not count on having internet if you stay here. Pretty frustrating. Otherwise, it's a great location for walking over to Old Town […] or the trolley to go downtown. Also quick easy access to I5 and I8. Clean, comfortable rooms for the price.

"America's Best Padre Inn- filthy and dirty..."
The hotel staff is nice, I have stayed at this location several times. It seems as if the rooms are less maintained every time I go. This time there was mold in the shower, ants and spiders in the bathroom. The carpet looks like someone died on it and the the chairs were torn and stained really bad. I have no further plans on staying here. I wouldn't […] recommend staying at this hotel either. Or atleast in room 141... Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

Internet didn't work. Had to spend four hours at Starbucks. 1970's motel. If all you want is a bed and a tv, this would work, but it's nothing special.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Padre Inn San Diego"
The maids pound on your doors at 8am to clean your room! So to make up for the 5 hours of sleep the management buys you a free Breakfast served on a paper plate, thanks!! So if you don't Luke to get any rest on your business trip or vacation stay here!!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel is very near to the highway but in a quiet neighborhood. Downtown San Diego is 5-7 drive. Our stay was nice and the staff was very cheerful and helpful.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Padre Trail Inn...adjacent to Old Town"
This is an old-style motor motel that allows you to park in front of your room. Amenities are very basic. Bed was old but firm. Room was clean but furniture is very dated. Free Continental Breakfast is really juice, rolls, coffee, cereal....very average. Desk is friendly and checkin was quick. If you are looking for an inexpensive stay next to Old Town […] the Padre Trail Inn is a good call. It is probably the best value of Old-Town Area hotels and is literally acrooss the street from Old Town Saqn Diego. Has a small pool that was crowded, but we did not use.

"Property Going Downhill Fast"
I've stayed at this hotel many times over the past year, but I won't stay there again. It used to have very reliable and fast free in-room wi-fi. Since updates to their wi-fi network, it has become extremely unreliable and slow. This was apparently a poorly executed attempt to prevent guests from using the high bandwidth to download copyrighted materials. […] Furthermore, while the rooms are attractive and comfortable, the housekeeping staff does an atrocious job. On my last visit the coffeemaker was filthy from the previous guest and there was trash behind various pieces of furniture. There is good cable TV service, but the TVs themselves range from mediocre to relics from the 1970s and if the night desk clerk doesn't care for you the chances are good that he'll find a room which has a crappy TV. The last one mysteriously turned itself into an FM radio after I fell asleep and in the morning a maintenance man had to come with a specific remote control to turn it back into a TV. The drain in the bathtub was clogged and I found myself in ankle deep water within seconds of stepping into the shower. The ventilation system has no heat in summer, which in San Diego can be quite cool near the ocean. Their solution is to provide space heaters, but only if you know to ask for one. When you turn on the ventilation in most rooms you are subjected to hideous noise and temperature controls that also appear to have been installed decades ago. Finally, even in 2nd story rooms you are likely to attract an army of ants if you so much as leave a can of Coke open on a nightstand. Numerous times I've had to call the front desk to have maintenance come with pesticide to deter the ants. All of this is extremely disheartening, because the managers are very professional and courteous, and not long ago the property's deficiencies were made up for by the reasonable rates (especially when booked online), but despite recent painting of the guest rooms, there is a severe lack of proper maintenance, Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Business Stay"
Everything was fine until I took a shower in the morning and discovered a very strong sulfer smell in the water which was very disturbing. This is too bad becasue the property is quite nice other than this problem.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
