The stay here was amazing, only issue was the room mix up but the staff was very lovely and helpful and did fix issue right away. Other then that room was clean and building felt safe no issue. Would come back and I do recommend others to check it out :)
Preet was more than accommodating and always provides the best service and try’s to accommodate me every time I stay here will definitely be back thanks preet and ritz and Steve!!!!
The hotel is located in a redevelopment area under construction. The hotel is fairly old but recently remodeled and very clean. Access from the highway is convenient and located less than 30min from the beach.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Staff was great and remodel was recent. Bed was too soft and pillows too hard. No coffee/hot water in the room. It was further from town than we thought. Kind of off by itself and close to the highway.
Great room for the price. A lot of room with most basic necessities. Probably the best deal you can get around San Diego.
