Stay at Holiday Inn Escondido
Overall it’s a good hotel. Service was good. Breakfast was excellent. However, the elevator is a bit dirty. I think it’s also being used as a freight elevator. Lastly, behind our room is Highway 15 and it does get a bit noisy at times.

Great with a few issues
Service was great, all employees were kind and attentive. Room worked out well, just a few kinks. The mini fridge was unbalanced and was teetering when touched, and the shower drain seemed to not be doing a sufficient job as the water was going down the drain to keep it from standing in an inch of water. So little tidbits that make me feel petty and really had no effect on our stay, overall we were very happy with the room.

Could not easily get to the hotel due to a mass amount of cars in line for various fast food places. Also lot of people parked in the hotel parking lot hanging out in their cars and truck partying late into the night. Also ac unit in room was really loud rattling sounds and made it hard to sleep.

**Review for Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites San Diego-Escondido, an IHG Hotel** I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites San Diego-Escondido, and unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. The hotel appears rundown, and the air conditioning in our room was not functioning properly, making our stay uncomfortable. On a positive note, the location is convenient and situated in a good area, which made accessing nearby restaurants and amenities quite easy.
