I was not able to stay in the room. It smelled so bad. It was like someone had been smoking in there nonstop or even smoking meth or something like that. It was absolutely horrible. I could not stay there. The clerk said he could not refund my money. I had to go through Expedia so I need to come to you because that place was horrible.

Do Not Stay Here

The photos shown are absolutely nothing close to what the rooms look like. There was a large roach, flies in the room, stains on the bed, the walls and bedding are dirty and the shower had a leak. The trash cans outside were overfilled and full of flies. Overall a 1 star rating, especially for the price. Highly recommend not to ever book here.

Liked: Cleanliness

When I arrived, I was driving a U-Haul and it would not fit under the awning for hotel Iris so I had to go inside of the Marriott parking lot and go all the way up and around into the Iris parking lot… The guy at the front desk was helpful. It was however, obvious that people who are homeless are coming out of homelessness are staying at Iris in probably 80% of the rooms so I was worried about getting into my U-Haul.Hey I’m just wondering how you guys

Absolutely shocked by hot unsanitary it was

Well it horrible the person who checked us in didn’t car that there was trash everywhere, the room had a horrible chemical smell that gave me a head ache, we couldn’t stay there. We went through hell to find another place to stay. I didn’t feel safe. The bed had stains on it. The neighboring rooms appear to have people living in them in very unsanitary conditions and were smoking in front of the room and were making noise. I review hotels for trip advisor as a pass time I have 73,000 readers and I honestly and with all do respect have never experienced anything this bad in my life

The images provided of this hotel are very misleading. The property smells like urine and cigarette smoke. The room we were given smelt like a previous smokers room, felt humid and looked like it was given a landlord special. The entry door looked like it could easily be broken open. There were a lot of odd people walking around the parking lot and most of them were chain smoking inside and outside of hotel rooms. It’s a small sketchy-people-filled hotel in the middle of a bunch of well known chain hotels. Not the best place to stay in San Diego if you have small children and family members with asthma. They wouldn’t refund us for our stay when we decided to take our business elsewhere due to these reasons. You’re better off sticking with a well-known hotel chain and paying more per night if you prefer to breathe well and feel safe sleeping at night.
