Our stay was comfortable.. The building is a little dated but theyve done a good job of keep it nèat and modern. It was a little homey. No complaints. We will return next yr.
Here is this small, somewhat hidden motel, that is super clean and comfortable. We were going to a concert in Gallagher Square, and we were driving. It took 10 minutes to drive to the concert. What drew us to this motel was the free parking and the great price. You won't find THAT downtown. BTW, around the corner on Market St, is a very interesting store. I wish we had had more time to truly explore.
Just outside the downtown area, nice quiet area. It was right off the freeway making it very easy to come and go. The rooms were clean and maintained, and staff was very accommodating. Would definitely stay there again.!
Excellent location, clean room and very friendly staff.
It is close to the zoo, seaworld and many restaurants.
Manager Manny was responsive and very helpful.
I highly recommend this place and will definitely stay here for my future visits to San Diego.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. Property can use some upgrades, but overall for an overnight stay decent.
Check in was smooth and good and the renovations turned out pretty good. I like the employees/owners of this establishment I have been going here for years even when they used to have rooms to rent by the hour. So I love this place
Check-in was easy, the staff was nice, and the water pressure was great. However, it needs major renovation and a good deep cleaning. I would not want to stay here more than one night, but the location was good for my purposes, and the price was cheap.
Very quaint motel. Clean, with amenities to match. Parking is tight. You have to slow down coming around the corner on 32nd or you'll miss the entrance! (I did!)
Really enjoyed our stay. Hotel isn't the most sightly but we weren't expecting it to be. Rooms were nice and very clean. We were visiting our son who was in SD for business. He lives in Europe. Would stay there again sometime if we were going for a short stay and needed to be in that part of SD. Nice place.

I would not have normally stayed here it is really old but I have to say it was very clean and very quiet. I think the owners are trying to clean it up and make it a nice place to stay. I wish them luck and would probably stay there again. The staff couldn’t have been better.

Are is near an industrial zone on edge of residential. Pretty sketch after dark. Room was clean but a bit rough. Bathroom sink fixture leaked whenever it was on. Mattress was not good. Staff was very helpful.

I liked the location, the size of the room , bathroom and closet. The fact that it has a microwave and a small refrigerator in the room . I missed the coffee maker but I didn’t ask for it because there’s no phone in the room and I didn’t bother to go to the office..the building has a clean look and there’s a big tv in the room. The bed was comfortable. We have a comfortable stay.
