worth it
Their extra fold-out bed was terrible. It was even terrible just to sit on.
Loved having Bendidics so close... those people were great and the food was delicious.
So friendly with the pets and very nice having the dog beach so close by.

Do not stay here unless you want bed bugs and flea
Our stay here came to a very close end when my 5 year old got into bed and immediately said “mommy something is biting me” when we turned the light on he had small clusters of raised bites on his arms. I immediately called the front desk and told him what happened and the front desk without hesitation said “ well I can give you a refund” so in a panic and late at night we had to find another hotel and move our little kids. The next day I called hotels.com and told them what happened and they told me that the hotel would not refund us and did not agree with what we said! I have proof and pictures. This hotels management is not truthful and the service is horrible. The shower had ants in it also.

It’s a doggy dog world
If you love dogs and don’t mind them possibly walking into your room because you kept the sliding door open, you will love this place. I love having dog visitors come visit unannounced.

Terrible experience!!
When we arrived, the entire room smelled strongly of marijuana and the bathroom was covered in mold.
Absolutely terrible accommodation and service. Run the other way!

Doors can’t lock.
The location is great and the room has a nice roku tv with a microwave, fridge and hairdryer. But one thing that was concerning that the doors couldn’t lock… the front door couldn’t lock but there was a lock that can be placed on the top of the door which I guess good? The back sliding door couldn’t lock at all so anyone could have opened it. The bathroom door can’t be closed all the way it gets stuck also.
Hopefully it was only that room that has those problems because I would like to stay again in that hotel because it’s close to everything that I wanna see in San Diego and it’s not expensive to stay.

Decent place for the price..
Pros:
-Close to Dog Beach and in a very quiet area.
-Lots of options for food/ bars nearby
-Comfortable beds
-Good sized rooms
-Friendly staff
-Dog friendly rooms have a back patio you can let your furry friends out into a fenced area
Cons:
-Very dated and not very well maintained
-Very tight parking on the property
-Downstairs rooms are loud- you can hear every footstep from the upstairs guests. This was the worst part about the room.
-Bathrooms are clean, but rather dilapidated.
Overall- for the ~$80/ night it was worth it, but during the busy season rates are double and I would be truly disappointed.
Also- despite not parking in their space, I was going to be charged for parking- so check your bill before you leave for incidental charges.
Also(2), right in the flight path for San Diego International and it is a constant flow of jets overhead, but I did not hear any of that inside the room.
Overall a great little place if you plan to NOT spend a lot of time in the room (just a place to sleep).
