One of the best motels I’ve stayed at while visiting San Diego! The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and polite, making check-in a breeze. The rooms appeared to be recently remodeled. I also appreciated the convenience of having a mini refrigerator and microwave in the room. Overall, a great stay—I would definitely book this location again!
