The had roaches! I only seen 4, so I didn't ask for another room. As I was checking in, two other girls were asking for their money back; so, I'm assuming that was their reasoning as well. Other than that, the room was ok.

The room appeared clean. But when I got up in middle of night to use the bathroom and turned on the light dozen of bugs went running. I checked out asking to cancel the second day of my reservation. I currently still have both nights charged along with deposit. Not sure if I will have to fight for the second night to be refunded or not yet. But for health reasons I recommend spending more money for a better place.

Checked in with a $100 deposit, no big deal as some hotels require a deposit when checking in. Went to or room and noticed holes in the ceiling, gap in the door jamb of the door with light coming through looked like the door had been damaged, stains on the headboard of the bed, table, door walls and there was a hole in the wall where the doorknob had previously hit the wall. The remote control for the TV was missing so I went to the front desk and let the attendant know and was told he would send maintenance up to the room. No one from maintenance ever came to the room, so we never turned the tv on. Wyndham needs to do a better job overseeing their franchises as this hotel is lacking in basic standards and customer service. We did video the room after we checked in and would be more than happy to share the video with Wyndham's corporate complaint Dept. I will not stay at this hotel when visiting San Diego again and will not recommend it to family or friends.

The hotel is very outdated. Only thing that are decent are the beds, floors and cleanliness of the room. The walk ways to the rooms are very narrow on the above floors and a bit scary to walk on if you’re afraid of heights. Closet rod was broken on one side. Toilet would only flush if you hold down the handle. Shower had low pressure. There was only one bath towel and one hand towel. Hotel staff was unfriendly. I thought hotels under Wyndham would be good. I guess not. I will not be staying at this Howard Johnson again.

After check in, I’m laying on the bed, and without knocking, a house keeper bursts in the room. Front reception didn’t care when I brought it up. I requested an early morning wake up as I had a flight, fortunately I woke up 30 minutes early, because that phone call didn’t come. When checking out, the lights were on in reception, but no front up desk personnel were there.

I would never recommend this place for even a single night.

Headline: Extremely Disappointing - Poor Hygiene and Service
\"I had a terrible stay at this hotel. The room was not properly cleaned—the bedsheets and pillows felt unwashed and used. To make matters worse, there was a strong smell of marijuana entering the room every night, making it very uncomfortable.
The amenities were lacking: the refrigerator barely worked, and we were short on towels. The staff was unprofessional and unfriendly. When I tried to check out, there was no one at the desk to assist. I do not recommend this place to anyone.\"

It was OK. Nothing special, just a place to sleep. I was not happy to be charged a $100 deposit, in case I stole the sheets or something. As if! Nothing much within walking distance, so bring your own snacks.

Toilet was clogged. Front desk made me go to the front desk to get the plunger and did not bring it to my room. Once i arrived at the front desk the attendant informed me he did not have a plunger. Offered to change room but it was already late. Nobody ever at front desk, hard to get ahold of. Not very clean hotel, a lot of homeless in the area. Walked into the elevator to find an “attendant” standing there smoking a cigarette inside and asking me “what floor number”, not clear how to check out and drop off keys. Very bad stay, wont return.

We stayed at the Howard Johnson in Hotel Circle and were very satisfied with our stay. It’s a good choice if you’re visiting Seaworld, Sesame Place, the San Diego Zoo, USS Midway, the Maritime Museum, malls, or seeing family. Most places are 1–4 miles away, which made the trip easy. We set realistic expectations, and everything met what we needed.

Parking was plenty with CCTV. It’s an older building like most in Hotel Circle, but our second-floor room was very clean. No insects, no odd smells, no issues. The sink, bathroom, and floors were spotless, even in corners. The room had a microwave, small fridge, coffee maker, clean towels, bright lighting, and a strong AC. The fridge freezer section needed defrosting, but it was clean. The floors had normal wear from luggage.

The bed was firm, pillows were basic, and bedding was clean. There’s no closed closet, only an open hanging area. Outlets worked, though a couple were loose. We felt safe, and you can see your car from the room areas. Staff was kind and helpful.

Check-in requires signing a few papers and a $100 deposit hold, which is standard and released after checkout if the room is left in good condition. Housekeeping refreshed the room on the second day with no problems.

You will hear freeway noise, but that’s true for all Hotel Circle properties. It didn’t bother our sleep.

Overall, clean room, safe area, good parking, and a great price for a holiday weekend. We would stay here again. It’s not fancy but it works.

Stayed one night before flying out early morning. So, tried to go to bed early. Tons of road noise. Noisy guests next door that kept slamming their door. Someone from the hotel knocked on my door at 9:30 pm. Didn't get a good explanation as to why. Just didn't feel safe here. So put chairs and my bag in front of the door.

Guy at reception was terse. Just put a hold on my card for damages and told me there was no breakfast. Which was fine because I checked out at 5am. But, might want to take the breskfast timing signs in the elevator fown.

Garbage in the parking area. Elevator wasn't operating in the morning, guessing for security reasons.

I went inside to check in but nobody was at the front desk. I waited and waited. Phone rang a couple times. Rang the bell a couple times. Yelled out hello. Finally, 7 mins later somebody came to assist me. Next morning I checked and again no is was there to assist me. I ended up leaving my key where it said to. Night window. This was around 8am. I replied back to a than you your visit text saying I left the key as asked so there’s record of me leaving it there. Waited almost 3 hours for confirmation so I ended up calling the property and he said oh I just now texted you back. I’ve been staying here for a few years now and never had I encountered this.

Threatened to cancel my room if I didn’t arrive by 11:30 PM - which I have never experienced before. Floor had reddish brown spatter and a sticker on it. Wall had rust colored spatter on it. Headboards dirty and had a cigar sized hole out of it. No functioning ice machine. Everything was such a disaster in the room and check in that I barely noticed the freeway noises outside with the homeless person and street walker. I wish this was satire, but it unfortunately was not.

Just remember that this place is close to a major highway, so being won’t be the top of anyone’s list. But beyond that, the room was comfortable and clean with the furniture being in good condition.
Unfortunately, whatever box spring that they used for the bed needed to be replaced because you could hear a little twang of the metal spring when you would shift your position on the bed.
The TV had a little flicker on my first day there, but on the second day, the screen went blank in the middle of a show. Luckily I had my laptop to stream on.
But all in all, besides these issues, I would not mind staying here again since it is a convenient place to be in with all the options for restaurants, shopping, and whatever special event in San Diego you might want to stay for.

The elevator safety certificate expired in 2022. I found a long dark hair in the sink and a large alligator hair clip in the shower from a previous guest. There was also a strange piece of molding taped down to the floor meant to bridge the gap between the grey faux wood flooring and the linoleum in the sink area. Signs around the property mention breakfast being served in the morning, but I was told at check in that there is no breakfast. Property neglect at the highest level.

We are so unhappy about this place. We had traveled from Texas so we were to exhausted to cause a fuss. But i did let the guy know that the floors were nasty, mind you it was not carpet. I told the guy it needed to be swept and moped. He looks at me as if i sooke another language. So i repeatedly saod the floor needs to be moppes i have 2 small children. He said ok and left. He comes back with a bath mat. Again i said no the floor is dirty! He then says oh, um i dont have a mop and the maids arent here. (Hand on face) he said i can have them mop tomorrow. We shower and proceed to go to a graduation. Both my kids and my feet were dirty from walking on the floor. Im already heated. I go down to tell them again , before we leave. To come back to it still not clean. We couldn't leave caise we had 2 more days paid for. Here is the better not so better ending. The remote and my babies pacie fall behind the bed. My husband's moves the bed to find a ball gage. Now im supper pissed. Yes i went and to look for the manager, to where they were nowhere to befound. So the next morning i went about 6 or 7 am because it was time tp leave. AGAIN stoll no one to be found, i had to call the emergency nunber tjat was left in the night window. He come like 15 mins later. When i told him what we found. He immediately try to offer another night or free points. To which i wasnt given the full as promised. I told him he needed to retrain his ladies to clean better.

The room was quite dirty when we arrived. Dirt and crumbs all over the floor, and even a dirty rag left on the floor. I immediately went to the front desk and they guy came and looked and said because our bags were in the room, we had “used the room” and he couldn’t do anything at all. No moving rooms, no discount, but didn’t even offer for it to be cleaned! Left the dirty rag, all the crumbs, and basically told us off. Then, they started doing construction outside our room at 7:30am. No warning that any construction would be taking place. Worst stay ever.

A for effort-worked with what they’ve got-friendly

The service was very friendly. The condition of the hotel was old but they did try as far as effort in making it nice. It smelled old and the outside and environment was pretty run down. I don’t want to be fully negative though because there was definitely an effort made inside the room and it was clean overall as far as the linens and housekeeping. The neighborhood for sure had a definite sketchy feel for example lots of people just outside and wandering, caged in and broken bending machines etc. I was only there by myself on business so it was a place to sleep for me and that was what I needed. Would I want to bring my wife and kids? No. But if you want an affordable room that’s midpoint this is a decent choice.

We saw homeless people washing up in the pool the second day, told the woman cleaning rooms either didnt care or didnt understand me and just noded and smiled. Said has a breakfast but is down the room is for down for maintenance. I ask a lady who did speak English and she didnt know how long its been down but she said \"awhile\" laughing and cheerful.

Ac didn’t work went back to the window the front desk guy was no where to be found 40 min later he showed up. The elevator broke with me in it would not go from the second floor to ground. I had a luggage cart with all my belongings on it I had to now leave on the 2nd and carry my stuff down the stairs. I’am handicap with rods holding my hips to my back so now I’m in pain and pissed . My third room looks like it was kicked in the door would barely shut and again had a problem locking it. At this point I’m furious. The front desk attendant acted as if he could care less said that was the last room. There was no one there . I made it work it was now 11 and I had traveled all day. I get up the next morning took shower go to blow dry my hair their blow dryer wasn’t working I pull out mine and find the outlet was not working. I tried everything to reset it but it didn’t work. I can’t believe they didn’t even offer to refund me. The worst experience.

Floors were dirty. The wall had a booger on it. The toilet didn’t stop making weird noises all night. The bed sheets were dirty. The heater didn’t work. The front door didn’t seal fully. There were holes in the wall in the bathroom. The light fixture in the bathroom was being held up by tape.

It was fine, basic hotel. Clean enough, nothing special.

Don’t stay here.

This is the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at in San Diego. It was so bad I was up at 3 AM trying to get a hold of someone to change rooms but couldn’t reach anyone. The room was smelly and dirty. The towels had dirt on them. But the worst part was the smell. All three of us woke up with sinus issues because of it. I’m very disappointed in hotels.com and the Howard Johnson in Hotel Circle because no one has got back to me. I would really like a refund but I doubt I’ll get one at this point.
