There is a parking lot. The rooms are fairly nice and AC works though you clearly hear when the people above you come home and stomp around. The exterior needs a major overhaul.

Outside of building needs works. Rooms are great though. For the price, go Crowne Plaza literally $5 more and much better as a resort.

Felt like I was on the bad side of town. I’m not familiar with San Diego. It’s an old Days inn with paint on it. It was clean and inexpensive fine for a one night stay

The room served its pupose. We were 40 minutes early on arrival and the clerk wanted to charge us 45 dollars for early arrival check-in. We declined and decided to wait. Then somehow the fee went away because we we first time guests and we checked in. Strange.
