Americas Best Value Inn

Hotel was average, price very reasonable, even includes continental breakfast. Would stay there again.

Just what you would expect. Good location, good value.

lots of ants. old facility 2 wine bottles under the cribs and cleaning staff didn't notice them at all for our entire stay

We weren't at the hotel often, but when we were it was very easy to hear when everyone else was there too. Located right off the freeway, the traffic noise is inevitable, but the softball game across the road in the morning was unexpected. Guests' car alarms going off and people generally being noisy late at night and early morning were not the hotel's fault, but still made the stay less than enjoyable. All the outlets in the room were horrible! We had a hard time finding an outlet that was not loose so we could charge our phones. That was a bad point. A weird rip on my comforter with a stain around it weirded me out too. We would have liked a microwave in addition to the mini fridge to heat up our food, but there was none. The location was amazing for us, right across from mission bay and a short drive to downtown. That was a redeeming point. Staff was friendly and prompt. No problem there. I would recommend if you are not expecting much from your hotel other than a place to sleep and shower or take a break during the day's activities, which is what we used it for.

The opening states that Americas Best Value Inn (aka Padre Trail Inn) is in an "undiscovered quality hotel nestled in paradise". I agree that this hotel is nestled in paradise alright, but not so much on the quality. . . My friend and I ventered to San Diego last minute. I rely on grate rates through Orbitz and quickly clicked on the first link which was ONE of the least expensive places. We were greeted at the hotel with a warm smile, but the actual room had a list of faults. Our room had holes in the ceiling, a dirty toilet/shower, the water pressure was worse than my bathroom sink (and we had to lean under shower head to bathe), the beds were rock hard, the TV had snow on all channels expect for MTV, and even though we laughed this off we could not handle the ants in the bathroom when we returned from dinner! Once we asked for a room change the same friendly smile gave us one with no questions asked. The only fault to this room was the same uncomfortable beds, and the clogged toilet. We left with lots of bites on our bodies, perhaps from the beach or from the beds?? Although this place was quite the experience, the location was grand! We walked to the historic district several times and even stayed an extra night due to the location. However, I was quite peeved that they did not indicate that it would be ten dollars more than what Orbitz had offered AND with the whole complaining there was no discounts offered. I would never stay at this place again, nor would I recommend this to families, couples, or even college students unless they can laugh off negative situations. This experience has left me to always, always read what others have to say about their experiences!

Check in was quick and easy. The staff was friendly upon checkin and checkout. The parking lot was situated strangely so that I had to do a 3 point turn to get out. The rooms and bedding were clean, but very outdated. The bathroom was functional, but the shower was a bit small. The hotel is close to a MTS transit station which made it easy to get downtown. Overall the stay was adequate. I would visit again if in a pinch (which I was this time).

This was in the perfect location. If you want cheap hotel in good location this is perfect. only thing that needed upgreaded was the tv set.
