"About a 45-minute walk from downtown, and there was nothing in the area. My king marina view room was amazing. However, I asked for a room change the 2nd night because of a crying baby in the room next door and ended up in a room above the front door of the hotel facing the street. Wonderful hotel clerks and manager.2022-03-11"

"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"

"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 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"
"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"

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.
