My family doesnt smoke. We've stayed in Vegas rooms where people have smoked in the past. We thought we were ok with a slight smell. This has never been such an issue in the past. The room wreaked (understatement). The smell penetrated the carpet and my eyes swelled up in tears the minute we walked in and dropped our luggage. My daughter cried and my husband was pissed but tired. We checked in at midnight and there was no other rooms available. We were close to sleeping in the car. Instead we slept with the windows open and sucked it up. Came home 2 days later (stayed elsewhere of course)and all of our luggage still stunk. I don't understand how a room could smell so MUCHHH like a filty ashtray. Much more than a Vegas Casino. Had the smell not been there, the room itself, bed sheets and restroom were very clean and the breakfast was a good continental for the price. There was a fridge and a microwave in our room and a teeny tiny pool in the quad. The neighborhood felt safe and there was a couple of cameras on the roof outside. But the damage was done. We were drunk from the smell. We went to seaworld and this hotel is in downtown. Not too far. 15 minute drive. If we come back to this hotel, which I highly highly doubt (traumitized for life I tell ya), I would make sure to get a non smoking room....period.

I got in ahead of schedule and they were kind enough to check me in 3 hours early

Although it is simply your typical chain 'travelodge' type establishment, the rooms look fresh and the pool and jacuzzi are very nice! Would stay here again! Friendly and knowledgable staff.

Only problem was some rooms got flooded but not the one we stayed in. That was not the hotels fault it rained very, very hard that weekend. Also at about 2-3 AM some one was pounding on a near by door for over 1 hour and woke us up. Other than that it was what we expected for the price.

I been going to this Howard Johnson for several years. however after this experience with Sergio, I'll be sure to check in before his swing shift begins. or stay else where. the morning clerk resolved the issue and was very pleasant.

Good clean room for the price. The location was good, easy access to highway.

We experienced a decent quality hotel with this price even with reservation in the morning. Thank you for hospitality.

MAJOR problems with the manager the night of my stay. Wrote two letters to hotels owner that never received a response. Awful place to stay and not cheap enough to just shrug it off...

1 A 3" cockroach scared my wife. Notified hotel manager. 2 Only 2 of the 3 morings did we have hot water to shower.

so many ants in the room they woke me up again and again in my ears nose and eyes. I mentioned this to the clerk after the first night and she gave me a can of ant and roach spray to help keep them back. day 4 I went back for another can and was finaly given a differant room. other than that.... basic room I guess.

The area around this hotel is very run down. They are not 9 miles away from Sea World they are more like 15 miles away. There so called breafast area is a juice machine and two very small tabels in they check in area.

Great Service and Breakfast!

Decent room. I'd stay here again.

Let me just say you get what you pay for. Noisy, people arguing. But for the price and the fact it was an overnite stay it did its job. If we had stayed longer no definitely someplace else.

The hotel is in good shape and the rooms look great and are comfortable. It is located next to the freeway but you still get a good night sleep.

the hotel was great, they have a pool lil loby area and a friendly staff.in the room you find every thing that you would want in a more pricy hotel, such as a tv, fridge, microwave, room safe, and info about the surounding area. the best thing about the hotel was the price, was cheep but NOT run down or dirty

the hotel was not the best or worst ive ever stayed in. it was average size, barely clean enough and of course all the workers only spoken mexican.(its 15 miles to the border) the staff was indifferent. the breakfast was bagels and cereal. housekeeping came in our room with the "do not disturb" sign out. we were right off the freeway, though we could not hear it. its within 15 minutes of 3 beaches, the airport and 3 miles from a walmart. and the phone number i found on the web was wrong.

i came across two c/roaches inside the room, and notify the office clerk, and she seemed not to intrested into the matter,it was then time for us to check out and no one,the manager nor any other of the howard johnshon's staff members, came over to look into the matter, and said they were sorry, or what so ever..we didn't watch t.v on our first night, due to the remote, not working, and i called the front desk, and the clerk said to wait for the housekeeping, that was their job, he didn't know anything about it, and that housekeeping wil bring in a remote in the morning..the next day we came back from our family outing, and yet the t.v was still not working, and when i called the front dest again, and asked if the night clerk, left a note about a remote, and the answer, was oh hes slow, and still trying to get the hang of things around here...i feel, that in any work place, a slow or new person should always have someone a company them for help and questions...

The hotel itself wasnt that bad. There was no elevator so traveling with small children you have to climb stairs to get to the second floor of rooms. The rooms were nice enough and clean. But the hotel was in a sketchy neighborhood. We were a little apprehensive about staying there because of the location. But it turned out to be not that bad. And it was very conveniently located to the interstate. All this being sad we would probably not stay there again.

I book hotel and needed to stay because of family emergancy, when attempted to book for additional time was not able to. went to front office owner stated that he controlls the price and would not give same peice as given by hotel.com

The shower needed repairs and was not as clean as other rooms that I have rented at this Howard Johnsons. The noise level at night (after 10pm) until about 2AM was bad. I think the management should post reminders or person checking in the guests should mention some reminder that noise levels should be kept to a minimum after 10PM.

The bed was soft and comfortable and the room was nice, but I would have liked to have a refrigerator. There was a problem with the shower, the water kept fluctuating temperature which was pretty annoying. Other than that, I liked having internet access and the room was a nice place to stay for a few days while touring San Diego. One great convenience is that there is a light rail right around the corner which will take you right to the border of Mexico, where you can just walk over the border which definately beats going through traffic.

I booked the hotel after reading other reviews and hoped for the best but expected to be dissapointed. For the price, it was okay. I stayed with family there during spring break (March 10-14) and had no trouble getting to sleep. The hotel was quiet and fairly clean. Problems I encountered were that the internet was slow and at times did not work, also, the shower needed to be fixed. It was hard to shut off and the water lines were mixed up. The neighborhood wasn't that bad as I spent most of my time driving, I never walked in the area. The woman at the front desk was neither overly friendly or rude, she was ok. The cleaning staff was good, our room was cleaned up everyday and fresh towels were provided. Overall, I would recommend the hotel if you don't expect too much and are looking to save some cash.

the lights went out when i tried to turn on the broken blowdryer. the guy upfront told me if i wanted another one that i had to come up to the front office and get it myself. he also shouted at me over the phone as i stumbled to find the socket reset button to turn on the lights. the bed was not comfortable at all and the bedding was cheap and outdated. there was also an area on the wall that looked like someone punched a hole and tried to do the drywall themselves. the end result, an uneven wall surface. the only good thing was that we were able to grab a few cereal boxes and some coffe for breakfast on the way out...thank goodness

Simple room for simple expectations - one night is enough!

Das Hotel ist gepflegt und sauber. Es liegt direkt am Freeway und man ist innerhalb von 10 Minuten mit dem Auto am Hafen von San Diego. Das Parken ist wie bei fast allen Motels direkt davor.
