Cuyamaca Meadow Nature Preserve Tours and Activities

This is a property to avoid, unfortunately, and especially at the price. The low quality of the rooms and in particular, the poor mattress quality, made our stay extremely uncomfortable. The beds have so little support that my lower back and hips were punished from side sleeping (stomach sleeping was impossible for me). The bathrooms and sinks weren't in good shape; our bathroom had a smudged mat in it and the finish was coming off of the tub. I understand that wear and tear happens, but the mat could have at least been cleaned or replaced. The desk staff did their best to help with issues. Of course, they are limited in what they can do, but they were nice and attentive. The location of the hotel is right in Little Italy and next to downtown. Walking out of the hotel and around the corner of the building opens onto a vibrant market full of shops and restaurants. My score for this is based on the comfort of the room itself, the price for value, and my experiences in other urban hotels of this type that attempt to be boutique. For example, we stayed at Hotel Lucia in Portland earlier this year, which is the same type of boutique hotel in the city, and it blew this hotel away in terms of comfort, amenities, and cleanliness. You would be better off getting the same quality for cheaper at nearby Motel 6 or just paying a bit extra a night for a superior Little Italy hotel than staying here. Sadly, you should avoid this hotel.

First off the negative reviews of this property our overstated don’t pay attention to people work super fussy or picking the staff is fine. The facility was renovated 20 years ago so it looks 20 years old so it’s not a luxury vacation but it’s a good location and it’s generally clean although a little worn but the bathrooms and showers were all well cleaned. The bed itself is not overly comfortable in the pillows are atrocious so if you have any kind of neck or bad problems, I would recommend you bringing your own pillow. It’s in a really good location relatively safe easy access to public transportation and I think you can probably find a pretty good deal in comparison to other hotels in the area.
