My stay at Balboa Park was great! The only inconvenient thing is the walls are not sound proof and can easily hear other people from your room! Other than this my stay was great!

The front staff were friendly and checking in/out went smoothly. But we found that the pillow cases on the upper bed were not changed.

Great check in experience. Front staff was friendly and made the process easy. The room is exactly what you’d want for a quick night. Room and bathroom was clean. Area around property has many homeless folk so keep a vigilant eye.
