The room was very clean and the house keeping staff did a good job cleaning up our room daily.. we stayed there for a week and we were really comfortable.. we booked a room with kitchenette and I saw some reviews on Google saying there are no pots and pans but they did provide pots and pans to make omelette or for pasta. FYI just get your own paper plates coz the ones they provide are not good quality. Overall great stay at Days inn.

Very disappointing stay. The property had a kitchen, but there were not enough utensils to properly cook and serve food. There were no proper plates or glasses provided. Instead, they gave thermocol (foam) plates, and hot food would stick to them, making them unusable. It defeats the purpose of having a kitchen if guests cannot comfortably cook and serve meals.
The property also had a strong weed smell throughout our stay, which was very unpleasant. Housekeeping was poor—they simply made the bed every day using the same sheets without changing them. The room and kitchen were not vacuumed or properly cleaned during our stay.
Overall, the cleanliness, amenities, and maintenance were far below expectations. I would not recommend this property.

It's in a convient location to downtown San Diego but a few considerations for experience, sharp incline getting to tht Lobby up a paved hill, then it's two lanes to drop off luggage, through in added parking costs and tight spaces in parking lot, a few restaurants options within walking distance, and breakfast was limited paid vending machines, overall room was solid, and staff was friendly just some areas might be a bit limited.

I stayed in a two queen room. The beds were comfortable and the pillows had enough fluff and puff. The counter space for the hand-washing area was ample and the restroom separate from the sink (plus)! There were two small things that could have been improved, but once we let the staff know about the issues, they were quickly resolved. Parking… from sun up till about supper time, you’ll find ample parking. Supper time and up, good luck! The good thing though is that the staff is quick to help out when you can’t find a spot. I feel like the $ spent was well worth it. Not one staff member was at any time rude or inconsiderate. I stayed 4 nights and I look forward to staying there again.
All this said, there are some families that make this place home. The iron in our room needed replacement due to someone ironing the wrong material at the wrong temperature setting. Parking seemed like a challenge until staff assisted.

The room I stayed in was okay. It was outdated and needs to be refurbished. The bed was okay, there were more than enough pillows which I liked. The check in process was easy and the staff were very nice. The parking situation was a little nerve racking. The parking lot was not very wide so you have to be very careful when parking and leaving. The hotel was in a good area and close to where I needed to be.

I am extremely disappointed with my stay at this hotel. I specifically booked this property because the room I reserved included a kitchenette, which is important for my family due to my child’s extremely limited diet and picky eating habits.Upon arrival, I was informed that the room type I reserved had been oversold and that no kitchenette rooms were available. While the employee who checked me in was kind and apologetic, another front desk employee’s response was shockingly dismissive. When I explained why the kitchenette was necessary, I was simply told that I could cancel my reservation if I wanted to. What makes this even more frustrating is that no one contacted me before my arrival to let me know there was an issue with my reservation. Had I been informed in advance, I could have made alternative arrangements and booked accommodations that actually met my family’s needs.To make matters worse, I had already purchased groceries specifically for our stay, expecting to have access to the kitchenette I reserved. Those groceries ended up being unusable. The room did have a mini fridge, but it did not work properly. I called the front desk for assistance, and the only “fix” was someone adjusting the temperature setting. Unfortunately, that made no difference. The fridge never kept our food cold, and we ultimately had to store our refrigerated items in a cooler for the duration of our stay.The room itself was clean and very basic. Would not stay here again.

While the location of this hotel is undeniably excellent for visiting the major attractions around San Diego, our family’s overall experience was unfortunately very disappointing. We have stayed at a few different properties within the Hotel Circle area, but this particular stay fell far short of the standard we expected for the price we paid.Our primary concern was a persistent, strong sulfur odor in the room. Although the space appeared clean, the unpleasant smell hit us immediately every time we re-entered. Because the windows do not open, we were forced to rely entirely on an outdated air conditioning system that was incredibly loud. The odor was so disruptive that we had to visit a nearby store to purchase multiple air fresheners and sprays just to make the environment tolerable for my wife, my children, and myself.
Furthermore, the room showed noticeable wear and tear. The bathtub finish was chipping away, and the walls had visible gouges. While the bed itself was comfortable, it was difficult to rest due to the room's conditions and heavy freeway noise, which required us to buy earplugs to sleep.We also felt uneasy regarding safety and property conditions. The parking lot stalls were exceptionally tight, and the constant presence of security guards—combined with individuals smoking in the stairwells—created an uncomfortable atmosphere for a family. For the rate charged, we expected a well-maintained, odor-free room. Moving forward, we will not stay at this hotel again!

I booked a room with two queen beds for my family and they gave me one king bed. They gave me the choice of a refund to go look somewhere else or blankets and pillows and we had no choice but to stay there because it was too late to go look for another hotel since we were out the for a soccer tournament! 😡😡😡😡

The bathtub had a bug crawling around in it. There was hair in the sink and on the floor. The hot tub was broken. They charged $20 a night for parking. I went back and looked at the listing on hotels.com and it was never mentioned that they charged for parking. They put 2 different $100 holds on my credit card for one room. The line to check in was very long. Rooms were old and outdated. Probably would not stay here again.

My recent stay here was amazing! Staff is incredible and the facilities were clean. Received daily maid service. The hotel is not a luxury hotel (and pricing reflects that), but the staff behaves as though you are a VIP—to everyone. Parking is $20/night but so worth it because of extra security. I asked if I had trouble finding a spot what I should do. They explained one of the guards would help me. Never needed assistance finding a spot and was often parked right in front of my room. Despite the busy hotel with families, it was a quiet space. It is next to a highway, but do your research and pay premiums for hotels not near a highway, if highway noise is a problem for you. It was never intrusive to me even while sitting outside. The water in the shower was actually hot. The pool is clean and heated. The hot tub was awesome! There are several beautiful outdoor areas and 24 hour security patrols the parking lot. I had trouble sleeping (not the hotel’s fault—I just don’t sleep well) and I felt completely safe sitting in those well lit areas to wind down at 2 am. At one point a security officer asked if I was okay to check in on me. There were a few unhoused people but they were not dangerous and did not stay very long, I don’t know if security quietly sent them on their way. It is San Diego, there is a large unhoused population and complete control on any property would be difficult. A vent above the kitchen stove would be helpful. Other than that an amazing stay. Thank you!

Staff was very kind. Room was very clean, not too noisy either despite being close to the freeway. People book an economy Days Inn thinking they’re getting the Ritz Carlton and then leave reviews as such. It has more than everything expected for the price. We didn’t park a car but know that it is $20/night for parking on the property with no street parking or public parking within walking distance. Hotel is about a 10 minute walk from the trolley stop which gets you well into downtown and other areas.

This place is pretty centralized to most tourist spots in San Diego. Unfortunately that means traffic is a congested during peak hours. The parking is okay. There is one way in and out, so make sure you park your vehicle for easy exit. No free breakfast, only free coffee/tea, but there is a \"living room\" where snacks can be purchased. The noise level in the room is pretty high...sounds from the other rooms, footsteps above, conversations, and exterior people noise. The staff was pleasant and they were able to accommodate our request to have our 3 rooms in the same bldg. There are 3 levels for each building and an elevator in each one. The elevator is tiny, maybe 4 people with no luggage. We were in SD for a quick weekend event. The property is on the older side, but it fit our needs- a bed and a shower and nothing else. The best thing-they had multiple large ice machines! Cheers!

The rooms cleanliness was kept up and staff was nice. The toilet would some times have issues, but would drain and resolve it's issue. The only thing that was bothering was the Marijuana smell that came through the restroom vent. We would have to leave to ventilator on and keep door closed. This caused some issues with a headache due to not being a smoker. Luckily we were not in the room much only to shower and sleep.

Bed were comfortable and serviced every day. New towels were given every day. And trash was always taken.

Let me start out by saying that the staff was wonderful! However, nothing else was. After we checked in and went to our room, the first thing I noticed was the most horrific chemical smell overpowering the entire room. It’s as if it was intended to cover up an old, stale, almost moldy odor. I immediately felt it in my lungs and started coughing (I have a lung disease). My sister’s eyes immediately began watering and turning red. Since it was past the cutoff to cancel, I assumed I would be out the money, but I also knew I couldn’t stay in that room for health reasons. I went and spoke to the desk clerk and told her about the room situation and she immediately agreed to cancel the reservation without any penalty, and fully refund my money. So I give the staff a 10 out of 10, but I would recommend that the rooms be truly cleaned and not chemically saturated to cover up the way the rooms smell underneath it.
