Ive been to multiple motels in the North County area, this is the first time Ive actually stayed at a place that I’d call “bug infested.” I saw a couple here and there when I first arrived, but the morning after.. oh my, I turned on the lights and SO MANY bugs scattered away into crevices. They look like small beatles, maybe not roaches but its definitely an infestation. Decided to stay at a different motel6 a few miles from this one and no bugs! Feel bad giving a bad review, the staff was nice and its in a good location, just need to fix their bug problem, major downside

Motel has good location, close to many places around San Diego. I needed a second parking pass, was not allowed to have another. Room had pungent cleaner smell. We believe one bed had bed bugs.

Filthy room

The place is dying of a thorough removation! The 2nd flloor landing isnt even! Its unsafe i feel it might collapse anytime. The linens looks dirty white & smells cigarette ( hope they use linens for the non smoking rooms) its just worth the price. There is a lady that lives down us looks like a longterm resident & looking creepy & unkept!

Unpleasant smell in the room. Very noisy from the road. The bathroom is terrible. The paint is all peeling. The floor was dirty. Dust on the headboard. The towels are very small. The bar of soap was tiny. In the morning someone from the neighboring room was arrested.

I have to say that this particular place has improved since I was here last, almost a year ago I believe. The beds are more comfortable and the cleanliness of the bathroom was a pleasant surprise. Also seeing that this place comes standard with both a mini fridge and a microwave without the need to upgrade to a higher priced room really made this place worth while. And along with that, you have a lot of dinning and shopping options with the premium outlet center close by.
