Photos are different from actual but remodeling
It looks the remodeling is underway. The room we got was fair condition, could be cleaned but we didn’t feel so. The TV channels didn’t work and my husband talked to the front desk. We are supposed to some discount for that via Hotels.com per the receptionist. I am going to try.

A place to shower, sleep, and leave the next day
It was a place to shower and sleep. The pictures on hotel.com look a lot nicer than it really is. It was in process of renovation which it needs. The elevator didn’t work and the only room left was on the third floor. This would be impossible for a physically challenged person to go up two large flights of stairs to the room. It wasn’t filthy but it wasn’t very clean either. For the price given how expensive San Diego can be, there are other choices that are nicer. It was in a wonderful location right next to Mission Bay, but no view of it. I’d rather stay in the suburbs and drive to Mission Bay or other attractions rather than stay here again. It wasn’t the worst but wasn’t good either. A rating of meh, and I’ll stay somewhere else next time applies.

Property does not look like the web page. Property was under construction. Property doesn’t seem to be the safest area. Gaps in the door and AC wasn’t working like it should. However I did not let staff know. Room had a slight odor that wasn’t pleasant.

The hotel in general wasn’t updated, room had a musty smell, closet mirror was off the track and one of the luggage stand straps was broken. Also, the only thing good for breakfast was the waffles and location was near restaurants.

Shabby, Rundown
Shabby hotel. I stayed here for 3 nights. The room had a smell. I shut off the AC and it was better. I asked for the filter to be changed which they did the next day. The curtains were not hung right so there was no way to keep them closed. I rigged up the ironing board to fill in where the curtain failed. There was a wet washcloth hanging on the shower curtain rail when I took my first shower. There was a dark brown stain on my pillow that looked like a small insect ground into the pillow. I don't know what it was but it was disgusting. They don't clean the rooms unless you ask for it. I asked for them to do so but they did not. The place is run down and in serious need of renovation.
