Got there at 1 in the morning and was unable to check in. They have a policy of requiring a hard copy of a government ID. As a result, I had to sleep in my car. I do need to say that they refunded my stay.

San Diego Surprise

Great price for our 6 days in San Diego. We stayed in the Claremont Mesa area which was away from the beaches but it was no problem driving 15 minutes to the beach. The area had plenty of choices to choose from to eat out. There was road work going on but thats happening all over San Diego. Hotel staff was great and i would definitely stay there again.

Booked a renovated room, the room was dated to say the least, missing fixtures in bathroom, tub was cracked and grab bar was missing with just mounting holes showing, room was not clean, Ash and dirt were on the sheets. The pictures of this hotel or misleading, nothing is as it appears in the pictures. It is also in a horrible part of town. If it wasn't for me getting there close to midnight I would not have stayed there. My son refused to get under the covers of the bed it was that dirty. Luckily they let me cancel my prepaid reservation in the a.m for at least somewhat of a refund. I would not recommend this property.

Place feels and looks like a homeless shelter-or rehab . No services from staff, electrical problems in rooms, had to change rooms twice due to electrical problems. Staff is not even moved- they just there to take payments. You need a towel- you go look for it from front desk- they have a towel rack there. Terrible place
