Great, clean, modern hotel rooms for a reasonable price. Good location-near Pacific beach, which is easily accessible from the hotel by car. What is more important the people are very friendly. We had to do the check in on-line for our flight back Europa and the personnel-Johanna helped us a lot with that including printing our boarding passes. Thank you... More

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

While we value your feedback, we respectfully disagree with your comment "Cheaply renovated motel." Our facility went through an extensive remodel last year that included brand new furnishings, upgraded flooring, flat screen TV's and all new guestroom amenities such as microwaves, mini-fridges and Air Conditioning units. Although our parking is limited, it is always free. 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

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.
