Great location for our family! Nice pool and hot tub. Good hot breakfast options. Staff was helpful and friendly!

TripAdvisor

Beautiful clean motel with great breakfast to start your day. Very accommodating and pleasant staff. Surrounded by several fast food restaurants, with In-n-Out Burger right next door. Close to 15 Freeway for heading to San Diego. Selected this location due to poor location of Choice Motel in San Diego Sea World area. I'd rather stay here for all my future trips to the San Diego area as a Choice Privileges customer and drive a half hour to San Diego to feel safe and secure as well as the excellent customer service. My room was well appointed, neat and super clean. I will tell all my friends and family to come here for their area trips.

Hotel was clean, pool was nice, breakfast was standard hotel fare. Raj at front desk was great

This is a solid location. I stay in a lot of hotels so the price and the location are a dream. Next to a freeway entrance, on a restaurant row, big department stores walking distance. And the hotel has decent staff and clean rooms and I’m not broke from staying there. Perfect.

Location is perfect, customer service was amazing. Breakfast was ok but the small area was extremely hot. Linen was all clean. Baseboards need cleaning and their tub reglazer sucks because they didn’t sand and prep properly. Overall I would definitely stay here again. The landscaping is absolutely beautiful.

The rooms & housekeeping are top, top rate. Breakfast is excellent….but the real quality, the real value: the staff!! From the manager to housekeeping—warm, accomodating, & competent!!

Very nice experience

Loved that they had complimentary snacks in the room. There are tons of restaurants in walking distance. The breakfast was decent. A couple of minor things would have been an improvement: Shower gel provided instead of nasty bar soap and the ice machine was never working on floor 2.

Great job to the entire crew! Great service, clean rooms, sweet welcoming snacks, complementary water on every floor, and amazing breakfast options!

We were on the way to Joshua Tree National Park so just spent a night here as it is about 30 minutes from the San Diego airport and right off the highway. It is located by multiple fast-food places, and its right next door to In-N-Out Burger (which is a big deal for us since there are none where we live). There is also a shopping mall across the street that includes Target. As for the room itself, it was decent, but my daughter noticed some ants by the window. It was a little annoying, but there were not a ton of them and since we didn’t see them anywhere else in the room, it didn’t impact our stay. The bathroom is a little small as well. My daughter loves to swim so we tried the outdoor pool and despite the warm weather, it was freezing and while she is used to cold hotel pools, even this was too cold for her and instead we used the hot tub. For the breakfast area, it looks like they just converted a couple of existing rooms. My expectations were low but was pleasantly surprised it was comparable to what you would get at a Hampton Inn or Holiday Inn Express. When we left, we mentioned the ants and the person behind the desk which I think is the manager, kept asking us to make sure to give them a good review, and we later got two text messages as well, so they went overboard there. Overall, if we were back in the area and needed a short stay, we would come back.

Located close to the freeway. Have a bunch of options for food in walking distance and a shopping center. Beds are comfy and has breakfast buffet in the mornings!

Older Motel, nice clean spacious rooms with a balcony. Many restaurants and shopping within walking distance. We would definitely return!

The people are nice. The breakfasts are very good. The beds are comfortable. The hotel could use a good cleaning. There are lots of spider webs in the stairwells and other places. The bath tubs were painted instead of replaced and the paint is peeling. The carpet was bad in the rooms, and the bathrooms and bedrooms need a deep cleaning. There is a lot of built up grunge. The hotel is close to lots of restaurants, shops, and the transit station. Coffee, tea, and cold water in the lobby was appreciated.

Very nice, clean, and excellent guest experience especially for the continental breakfasts!!! For the reasonable price you will definitely get your money worth staying here.... Can't wait to come back!!!

This motel is on the top of my list. It has all the amenities I like; comfortable bed, good breakfast, lots of plugs & usb ports, good lighting, reasonable cost, plus some extras like a magnifier mirror & a nightlight in the bathroom. If I do another trip to Escondido, I will definitely stay there.

Clean rooms, good customer service, good breakfast options, but the building is a bit dated. Location is convenient, lots of restaurants within walking distance. Overall it was a good stay.

Host went out of the way to make sure we had a nice stay. Shuffled around room so we could stay another night at the same price.

The breakfast and service were very good. They came and got us fresh towels and did our room service everyday. Only complaint was the shower. We went to give our girls a bath, but all of the excess paint flaked off and was in the bath water. They painted over the fiberglass shower insert. I understand its an older building, but this was a detail i wanted to note. Otherwise it was a good stay located next to lots of amenities.

We booked a handicap room with a roll-in shower. The shower was well appointed with plenty of towels and a shower chair. The bed was comfortable and there were lots of snacks in a basket by the coffee machine. It was just the break we needed.
