Pros:

Location was good and quiet.

Cons:

When we arrived, it was later than expected. We arrived at around 2:30am on 2/20. There was no one at the desk, a sign was up saying they’d be back in 5-10 minutes. But no one was coming, answering myself or another guest calling out. I had to wait for 15-20 minutes for the attendant to wake up from behind the counter area, after having to shout.

Nice and close to everything
Pros:

Nice, neat, comfortable with nice kitchen and full-size fridge, which we used for breakfast and snacks.

Directly across the parking lot is a Starbucks and a pizza place.

Parking was directly outside and easy.

There was a standard little mini store and breakfast, which was standard TownePlace breakfast. The staff were friendly as we came and went.
Nice place is close to a lot of things in North County San Diego.
