Excellent place to stay. Very large clean rooms with lots of space, fridge, microwave and copious towels. The staff is very friendly and helpful and there is plenty of parking. This stay is perfect for dogs and there is a large County park nearby which is great for kids and dogs. Lots of convenient shopping, coffee shops nearby. Escondido is a very pretty area!

Very large rooms, lots of parking, stayed in the front of the motel. Particularly love this motel for dog parents. Felicita County Park is a 5 minute drive and you can park across from the park if the gate is not open to walk your dog, Also its a ten minute walk to the back entrance of Kit Carson Park with hiking, dog trails and a sport center, lots of people riding bikes.

For the price, I found it to be quite nice. It was simple, doesn't look like much from the outside, but the rooms were very clean. They also use the newer, quieter air conditioners, as opposed to the old, loud things still far too common at budget hotels in the U.S. Pool was clean and cool. Nice soft lighting around the beds for winding down. I would stay here again, no hesitation.
