Perfect location, great price
We stayed here for 5 nights in January - we picked this hotel because it had a very good location (close to Old Town - it was 10 minutes even by walk, close to Seaworld, Mission Beach and access to the highways). They have a big parking lot which you are free to use. Our room was on the ground floor, room was big and clean (the carpet wasn't the best though). Bathroom was fine.
There wasn't any problem with the neighbourghood, we often walked to the pharmacy and to close shops even at night. The only problem was that the walls were like they weren't there so sometimes we heard very word from the parking lot (one night it was really loud). Staff was kind, no complaints. We usually left in the morning and arrived late at night so it was perfect to rest, we haven't missed the amenities. The one wierd thing is that they charge you for a deposit (20$ I guess...) and they transfer it back in 5-6 days...
Don't let negative comments dissapoint you, surely it is not a hotel for a family vacation to rest but if you are in SD to explore it's the best value for money.
