The service and accommodations at this hotel was like how hotels used to treat their guests- with extra little perks and very friendly people working there! I have stayed at several in the area and this hotel far exceeds all the others in all areas for a very good price. The employees here were so helpful when needed and acknowledged you in a super nice manner. The room was spic and span and very comfortable. It has easy access from the freeway and easy parking. For me it is 5+ stars! I will be back next time I visit my family in San Diego.

Room was clean. It’s an older hotel and shows some wear and tear. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great with a nice selection. Unfortunately, my room faced the interstate and it was extremely noisy in the room.

The hotel was great as well as the breakfast and front desk folks. Housekeeping and their supplies were decent. They never had enough towels and other supplies. We didn't have them clean our room we did it ourselves but it took forever to get the supplies we need and we even offered to come get them but they never had them or they had to scramble to find them. I think they just need a little bit more organization in that department. Otherwise it's a good place to stay especially if you're visiting East County.
