Categories

Cleanliness
6.5
Mixed reports: several guests said rooms were clean, but multiple complaints about ants in rooms/bathroom/car, holes in carpet, rust in shower enclosure, and a notably dirty pool lowered this category.
Service
9.4
Consistently praised: numerous mentions of friendly, polite, and helpful staff (Anthony, maintenance/Jesus, manager), accommodating responses to requests; only minor note about being short-staffed evenings causing brief check-in delays.
Location
9
Very positive: many guests highlighted convenient location with easy freeway access, nearby restaurants, grocery, and proximity to family in Poway/Scripps Ranch.
Room Quality
7.3
Mixed: some rooms described as spacious and comfortable, but others had issues—smaller than expected, daybed-style sofa bed, AC/temperature control problems, elevator access issues, and guests moved rooms multiple times due to problems.
Amenities
8.2
Generally good: breakfast offerings and on-site food/parking are positives; in-room microwave/fridge and parking are convenient. However, pool condition was reported inconsistently (one guest noted it looked nice; another found it dirty).
Value for Money
8.1
Perceived as good overall given location, service, and breakfast, but diminished slightly by room quality and cleanliness issues experienced by some guests.
Food and Beverage
9
Strong positive: breakfast repeatedly described as great, abundant, and with good choices; on-site dining options in parking area noted favorably.
Overall Experience
8.9
Overall impression is positive due to excellent staff, good location, and breakfast, but recurring room/cleanliness issues (ants, rust, room moves, pool) tempered some guests' eagerness to recommend.

Great, would stay again
Pros:

Spacious, comfortable, was raining but the pool looked nice. Breakfast was great. Conveniently located!

Cons:

Had a bit of an ant problem in the bathroom and they ended up all in my car. The ac wasn’t turning off or we couldn’t adjust the temperature, cleaning staff opened the door to a broken elevator and let us get on from the 1st to the 4th floor.
The elevator door wouldn’t open on the 4th floor.

It was an OK stay.
Pros:

The room was fine, location was fine, the breakfast was decent. The room was a King with a sofa bed, which was a little misleading because it was a daybed situation. Someone could sleep on the couch cushions, and someone could sleep on a twin pullout from underneath the couch. It worked, but glad we only had to do it for one night.

Cons:

The pool was dirty. And not like a little dirty - we ended up only letting the kids put their feet in. It was pretty gross.

Overall, happy with the staff as I said before they were very helpful. However, everything else I would not stay at this
Pros:

Convenient location. Staff was very courteous, kind and very helpful.

Cons:

Regarding the room, a little smaller than expected. First room had holes in the carpet. And ants all over the walls. Had issues when moving to another room. Ended up having to move a total of three times because something was wrong with each room.

Pros:

The breakfast had some great choices. Location of the property was perfect because of close family in Poway and Scripps Ranch. The room was clean except for the note I will make in the next question. Bed was comfortable and when I needed anything staff was very accommodating.

Cons:

The shower enclosure has a lot of rust around the bottom of it. To us this was not acceptable. This was very disappointing. Because of that I may not choose this hotel for my next visit.

It was ok I would book it again if I had to.
Pros:

The staff was great

Cons:

You can tell it was another hotel that needs a lot of work. When you turn the water off, you can hear the water still draining in the pipes. The fan to the bathroom sound like a motor when you turn it on.
