Vickie, Poway

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was nice and clean. Bathroom doorknob was falling off and bathroom door was sticky to open and close. Staff was nice but often unavailable. There really wasnt much for breakfast. 2 cold cereals and a few packaged pastries. The area was a bit noisy but running the heater helped cover that up. The price was good. I would still stay again.

I expect better service for the price we payed. They had a makeshift bed frame that squeaky noises when turning in bed. No shampoo, Kleenex, and a 2x4 piece of wood that holds the vanity from falling. Not enough lighting in the room. Cold tile floors no carpet. Cold coffee at the front lobby. I was told that I needed to get my coffee before 9:00 am.

Hotel is near many dining places, shopping marketplaces and very close to other activities. The building is old however my room was clean, the AC unit worked fine and everything was pleasant. The only complaint or thing I struggled with was the parking lot, not to many spaces and very clustered. Other than that my I am happy with my stay.

Super nice, convenient, but noisy.
Clerk that checked me in was an older gentleman, SUPER nice and chatty. Quick and welcoming. But the noise!!! It sounded like a construction crew was in the room above and next door. You could hear every bang, boom and clang. Kept me awake.
