What to expect for $60 per night
This hotel what just about what I was expecting for $60 a night. We just needed a place to sleep after a show at the Casbah, and this hotel is walking distance. We arrived a little early and were able to check in right away. When we got to our room it was a one queen instead of a two queen so I called and let the guy at the front desk know, there was no issue with switching rooms to a two queen. The new room smelled like bleach and I think the carpet had just been cleaned as it was a little damp. Both indicaitions that the room was at least clean. We did not encounter any weird smells like with a lot of the reviews I have read. We had two vehicles for one room and there was no extra charge for parking.The smoke detector was beeping because it needed a new battery and the owner came up and changed it, and it still beeped. We eventually unplugged it and just let it be. We were able to comfortably hang out in the room while getting ready for our night and even enjoyed sitting by the windows people watching and also watching planes land at the SD Airport. The walk to the casbah was dark and I probably wouldn't have been comfortable doing it without my boyfriend, but a cab ride would have been pretty cheap at one mile round trip. The room served its purpose for us, the fridge kept our beers cold and we were able to save leftovers from our italian dinner and heat them up for breakfast :) [And no I was not given any money for this review]
