Spent 2 nights here and though it's an older place it did the job! The price was great, it was clean, bathrooms were nice, free parking, beds were comfortable, older tv set but we weren't there to watch tv. It was less than a 5 min walk to the trolley station and right across the street from Old Town. Extremely... More

Nice enough, average rooms. Staff is nice, but outside is a bit tired. Pool is really nice, their bar is a bit dark but breakfast was good. Room is $59 most of the time, so we can rely on the price. Cheap place to put your head... the air conditioning was fantastic.

My daughter and I stayed here Apr. 15 to 19. We were so pleased with how close it was to the trolley and the old town. The management was top notch and everything was so clean. The self-serve breakfast was good. My daughter had the restaurant breakfast one day and said it was also good. I was also able to... More

Friendly polite staff, free parking, free WIFI, continental breakfast. The rooms are a bit outdated but are clean and comfortable. The location is superb, just across the street from the Old Town Historic Park and lots of restaurants, predominantly Mexican but we did find a good Steakhouse, and a cafe called O'Hungrys (beer $1) opposite the Old Town Trolley Tours....

Great front desk, got us right into a very nice room. Good sized, seemed recently renovated though could use some new furniture. Location close to Old Town and Sea World was just what we wanted. Not noisy, good continental breakfast, a great place to stay for not too much money.

This place only runs about $50 a night, so don't look for luxury. It is, however, clean and comfortable. The staff are very helpful and the location is great, right in Old Town, but off to the side away from the noise. Again, this is a sixties hotel, even a bit campy and historic, but not fancy, but is is... More

This motel, while inexpensive, is quite satisfactory. It is clean and just across the street from Old Town San Diego. There is ample parking off the street, so one doesn't have to worry about one's car. The breakfast, while just continental, is adequate; it is located in a restaurant setting so there is plenty of seating, unlike some other inexpensive... More

We stayed here for one night. The proximity to the trolley system and the free parking both contributed to our initial selection of this hotel. After staying there, I would have to say that the name is rather appropriate, as it was a good value. As noted in prior reviews, it is an older motor-lodge-type hotel, two stories high with... More
