"A good, clean hotel with congenial employees.2022-03-21"
"This hotel was poor at best. The beds were too hard, and it was difficult to get meals if you don't know your way around the area.2019-11-18"
"Great experience. Quick walk to the Valley View Casino Center. The hotel was nice, clean, and comfortable. Easy check-in and lovely breakfast. We'd definitely stay here again.2017-12-12"
"We were completely dissatisfied with our stay. The hotel was undergoing renovations, and the lobby was closed and covered with a tarp. We had to wait an hour to check in, and there was only 1 desk clerk on duty.2020-03-12"
"The lobby was closed due to construction, so no public restroom was available. The check-in line was long and slow. Wait to stay at this hotel until renovations are done.2020-03-10"
"My stay was OK, but the front desk was understaffed at check-in time. The hotel room was clean, but the carpet and furniture needed to be replaced. The exterior needed updating, and the grounds needed cleaning.2019-06-13"
"Nice resort for the most part. The bathroom door didn't lock, and we had to search for working ice machines. Be aware of the parking and resort fees.2021-08-19"
"The hotel was nothing like what I expected. The room was small and didn't have a Keurig coffee machine. The wall AC in the vanity area froze the room, and I couldn't open the microwave unless I lifted it to avoid hitting the shelf lip.2016-07-25"
"The AC was preset, and my hotel room was uncomfortably warm.2015-09-12"
"An average low-cost hotel. Everything was in working order, but I had to request room cleaning, fresh towels, and more. Mediocre continental breakfast. 2021-10-02"
"The motel and surroundings were dirty and gave a bad first impression. Police and an ambulance were there when I arrived, so my check-in was delayed. When I heard a strange noise, I looked out and saw coroners removing a deceased person in a body bag. Find a better place to stay.2021-08-27"
"The motel was just 3 blocks from the Valley View Casino. The staff was informative about surrounding restaurants and attractions.2018-04-19"
"The motel was clean and comfortable, and the staff was accommodating. We had an early flight, and there was no food available for breakfast at that time. Go for it.2022-07-18"
"I was disappointed that the hotel didn't provide daily housekeeping. Bring your own towels.2022-01-17"
"One of the key cards didn't work. The shower faucet ran; I told the front desk, but it wasn't repaired. Find another motel.2021-09-04"
"Great motel for the price. It was just fine for an overnight stay.2019-09-23"
"The hallway smelled like smoke, and I heard slamming doors throughout the night. There was a gap at the bottom of my room door, so I didn't get much sleep. There was a Starbucks and a lounge next door. Don't bring a pet to this motel, and don't expect to sleep.2016-04-01"
"The hotel suite was clean and good-sized. Most of the employees were excellent, but the man directing people at the pool was rude.2020-06-18"
"I had a 5-star experience at this hotel. From check-in to housekeeping to service, everything was good. The employees wore their genuine smiles well. Great buffet breakfast with cooked-to-order eggs.2018-11-20"
"The motel was beautiful, and the staff was superb. I definitely plan to return.2022-06-22"
"The motel staff was so friendly. There was a lot to see within walking distance.2022-01-25"
"The motel reeked of sewage, which backed up into the sink and made our room smell awful. The bathroom was inoperable. We checked out. The front desk clerk offered us $18 to compensate us for parking. Don't stay here.2016-12-14"
"Don't expect any bells or whistles at this hotel. Convenient to MCRD, but there was a spiked fence around the lattice fence surrounding the upstairs balcony. The room reminded me of military barracks. The staff was friendly. Be careful leaving the parking garage; the incline scraped the bottom of my car. OK if you're budget-minded, but don't stay here if you want semi-luxury.2017-09-20"
"Close to Old San Diego. Hotel was clean, quiet, and comfortable. Plenty of hot water for showers. We left an item behind, and the staff promptly mailed it to us. We stayed 3 days and would stay again.2015-03-23"
"Good location near MCRD, restaurants, and the freeway. The hotel staff was helpful and friendly. Use ear plugs if your room is on the freeway side of the building.2023-09-23"
"The room was clean, and all the rooms had new mattresses. The front desk clerk was friendly and helpful. Not a luxury hotel, but it was comfortable enough. Nice pool. There were some maintenance issues, though, and the shower controls were backwards.2020-01-08"
"The hotel room was clean, spacious, and had a fridge and coffee maker. 2019-04-08"
"The room was spacious, and breakfast was good. The staff wasn't consistently customer service-oriented, though. We tried calling for hours to inform the staff we'd be arriving late, but we were never able to get through. When we arrived, the hotel clerk said she'd used the phone and it worked fine. The heating and cooling unit was so loud it interrupted our sleep. Never got our requested wake-up call. Even though the room rates weren't cheap, we also had to pay for parking. We won't return.2018-12-05"
"I enjoyed staying at this hotel.2018-08-09"
"The hotel was clean and nicely updated. Good hospitality. The only disappointment was the cable TV didn't work. I recommend staying here.2017-11-13"
"Our room was right next to the freeway, so the traffic noise was loud. The shower light had a leak, and the fluid was a strange color. Don't stay at this hotel.2021-06-14"
"An outstanding hotel. Stay here.2019-01-30"
"We didn't want housekeeping our 1st morning, but our room was never serviced and we never got fresh towels; I had to find a housekeeper and request some. Breakfast wasn't that good. We were disappointed.2018-03-05"
"Nice hotel. The room was big and well-decorated. The airport shuttle didn't run in the afternoon and evening, and the taxi reimbursement was less than my taxi trip cost.2022-03-19"
"We really enjoyed our 4-day stay. The hotel was clean and beautiful, and close to everything. The management was awesome. The employees were kind, and the atmosphere was peaceful. We'll stay here again.2021-08-25"

"Excellent location. Nice hotel with a beautiful view, awesome breakfast, and great parking.2016-02-16"
"Good experience. The hotel was close to the airport and downtown, and was easy to find. The room was nice and clean. The staff was friendly and pre-checked us in and stored our luggage after we got off the cruise ship. Nice walks in the area. I didn't like the grab and go breakfast.2022-01-18"

"Nice hotel staff, and the service was good.2023-10-21"
"The hotel shuttle only went to the airport, the marine base, and Old Town. I had to arrange my own transportation to the USS Midway and the zoo. Ask for a room away from the freeway.2023-09-15"
"From the airport shuttle to the hotel, all the employees were so nice, and the property was clean. The shuttle took us everywhere we needed to go, and the drivers were informative. Great pool, and we were able to do our laundry. You can't beat this place for price and accommodations. Stay here.2023-06-21"

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
