This is a nice enough place and so close to our daughter that we'll probably stay here again if it continues to be so nice

The overall stay was great; however, they failed to mention that there was a parking fee for each day prior to booking and that the pet deposit was for each day instead of one fee. When we got our bill we were less than thrilled to see extra fees on this.

Great stay!
Overall, we had a great stay. The property is clean and comfortable and has been updated. The beds are comfortable. There are several food options close by and a Costco across the street. We were in town for parents’ weekend at SDSU and the hotel was close to campus. I wish they had cleaned our room at least once during our stay - I’m sure they would have if we had asked. Hotel staff very helpful. Breakfast was great - lots of options.

No hot water ! No notice
There was no hot water . The bathroom door wouldn’t stay closed
The hot water was what we needed after a long cold night out
It was horrible
I’d be happy with a refund because we stayed and had to deal with all that too tired to look for another place

TV barely worked, and were doing some work out front and made it hard to access the entrances especially for someone with mobility issues
