3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 May 2013 NEW

We arrived at the hotel (though really, it feels more like a motel) around 11 pm on Sunday night. David? was super friendly and high energy at check in, and we got a room for $66 with a AAA discount. Called the Holiday Inn across the street, it was $102. We decided we'd be fine for just a night, and... More

Ended up staying here instead of the Holiday Inn Express because the price was $40 cheaper per night and most of the Pacific Beach area was booked. Positive: price, SOME free parking, coffee and newer furnishings. Negative: this is just a cheaply renovated motel, rooms are very small, no parking saturday night after dinner, wall mounted a/c units mounted on... More

I chose this place because it had decent reviews (about 3.5 ratings), inexpensive rates, and a non-smoking facility. Upon check-in, I was surprised at how many smokers were standing outside of my room - above and around me. There were a lot of cigarette butts dropped outside my door too. Though my room smelled of cigarettes coming from outside, I... More

We were very satisfied with our stay in this no frills Inn. The only complaint is that we ended up with a room we didn't need. Normally, in hotel lingo, a "double" room indicates a room for 2 people and a "single" is for 1 person. At the Red Roof Inn, apparently they have a "double Queen" room (for up... More

Thank you for the feedback. The majority of our guest refer to a "Double" as wanting a room with two beds, but we would have glady accommodated a change in your preference. Please don't hesitate to let us know. See you soon. More

I stayed at this hotel for 2 weeks, Sun - Fri. They are a legitimate nonsmoking hotel with free internet and continental breakfast. The location is great, right off of I-5 with a few restaurants within walking distance (Rubio's, In-N-Out, Wienerschnitzel, Thai, 7-Eleven). Pet friendly! They offer a little pet area with bags. There are no extra charges for pets;... More

The service was great, the room was great, and the access (location) was great. It was right off the highway (I-5) and very close to SeaWorld and the beaches.
