Best part about this motel is that you can walk to the beach and you don’t have to worry about parking. Not too clean, towels smelled of mold, they didn’t clean my room and TV didn’t work.
Location location location, that's the only thing this place has going for it. Other then that the room was absolutely disgusting hair literally everywhere, Also no AC...

The new owners just took over the property 2 weeks ago but they are very customer oriented. The location is a 9.5, one block from the beach
Bike rentals across the street and an amazing price.
I loved Motels location, everything was in walking distance. Motel was doable for stay. Only downfall was it had an old smell. The area did not have any hotels, more like Hostels, Beach dorm like and cottages. Overall I was pleased with my stay and with the helpful staff. I’d definitely come back.
This place is in a great location for walking to many restaurants, bars and the beach. If you are going to San Diego to hang out in a hotel / motel room, this is not your place. You cannot beat the price and location.
This is an older motel. You’ll get a clean room, working shower with a great location. Not fancy, not high end.
Staff was nice and it was perfect for what we needed.
Great location—literally just a block from the beach! The property was clean, comfortable, and within walking distance to everything we needed. Staying here made our time in San Diego even better, especially since it was so reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend!
