Hotel’s alright. They’re remodeling so some spots are unfinished. No cable, but we don’t care about TV. Room is brand new. Wife’s been smelling something weird at night and getting dizzy. Might be the construction. Still, we had a good time in San Diego during the weekend.

We had a great stay. They are remodeling the lobby and rooms. The finished rooms were very nice and aesthetically pleasing. There is so much to do and eat in the surrounding area. And a 10 minute walk to the beach!!! Can’t beat that. The area felt safe. Would definitely recommend if on a budget.

The place served its purpose which is mainly to shower and sleep.
They are working on the building so the noise is heard all day long. Plus I booked the place because it has a pool and when we got there, the pool was closed indefinitely.
The continental breakfast they claim consists of muffins and coffee if that.
Had I known this, I would’ve selected a different better hotel so my little one could enjoy the pool.
I paid for amenities they don’t have at the time. I am very disappointed that information was withheld I when I booked the place.

This is a great location, being within walking distance of downtown and the beach. The area is so nice you need not walk, with free parking anyway, but you could. This property is undergoing extensive renovation. However, the room was simple but clean and new. It was quiet at night, and the shower was great. The bed was comfortable too. We did not go down for the continental breakfast, which is currently a makeshift setup of five in a room while the lobby is renovated. The price was excellent for a simple, clean, nice room with a great location. Just don't be disappointed; it is not fancy at this time.

When I booked my room with Expedia I was never told the hotel was under construction.
I started to ask for my money to be returned when the person checking me in said she would do an upgrade. I also paid for an insurance if I wasn't pleased with the room.

The person checking me in was a very nice the room was totally renovated and cleaned.
I stayed 4 days and no one came to clean the room during my stay. I even left one day at 9:00 a.m. and returned at 7:00 p.m. no one came to clean the room.

The outside of the hotel was very dirty from the construction. There were also cigarette butts on the stairs and people smoking directly opposite the stairs.

It said breakfast but because of the construction there was no place for breakfast. Breakfast was in the same place they were checking in people which was a single room.

Breakfast consisted of tea or coffee. There was also an apple a prepackaged chocolate muffin and instant oatmeal. I was told it was grab and go.

Except for me getting a renovated room which had been cleaned when I got there I would say that my stay at Days Inn was totally unacceptable.

This motel should only be offered by disclosing that's it's been under construction/renovation semi- forever, that there isn't a pool as advertised, that breakfast is maybe coffee and granola bars if you get there before they're grabbed, no hair dryers, no room (or lobby) glasses, virtually no space within room for sitting other than bed, no microwave, limited space for clothes, the world's thinist/stiffist tissue paper, TV that isn't accesable beyond the Weather channel, one elevator on the extreme edge of the property, reception that's in an old, ratty room, and a limited parking lot, walkways, stairs and exterior walkways that are truly slum-like...if you like these features, this place is for you, otherwise, avoid it like the plague.

Let's start with the outside of the property. It was not very clean, but they are renovating the property, so maybe that is why.

It says breakfast included, however, it's just coffee, granola bars and a fruit (apples).

All the kudos will be given to the room. Nicely renovated, however, there was no shampoo, conditioner or body wash in the restroom.

My favorite part of my one night stay: being able to run to moonlight beach. It was about a half a mile away.

The lobby is currently “being reconstructed” and shut down, so registration is in a room, which was hard to find at night. The location of the place was super convenient and staff was friendly and obviously worked hard to keep it clean . But the flooring had soft spots and the rooms lacked things like hair dryers and irons. Plus the AC did not work well. The whole place honestly needs a renovation, not just the lobby.

The staff was super friendly and nice but Expedia and the Days Inn did not make us aware that they are in the middle of renovations. We were surprised to find the office located in one of the bedrooms, a very make-shift breakfast and the like. However the room seemed to recently have been renovated and was good minus the fact that the AC struggled a bit to keep the room cool and housekeeping was late or delayed or non-existent most of the time. Other than this we had a good stay. The office staff being so kind made the renovation inconveniences easier to deal with.

One of the worst rooms we ever stayed in. There was no refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot only one roll of toilet paper. when the door was shut, there was a space that you could put papers through and see through it not safe at all. The lock didn’t seem very safe either. When you sat or lay down on the bed, all you could hear was the springs underneath squeaking. There was no breakfast except for package, tiny blueberry muffins, and granola bars . Best of all they did not have any ice or ice machines. Had to go ask for help five times to get the TV to work properly. They should be shut down.

Staff was friendly and helpful.

Location is good. Encinitas is a great area. Motel is right off freeway and short stroll (1/2 mile) to the beach. Shopping center right across the street is convenient too.

Room was renovated so pleasantly surprised. Excellent water pressure and showerhead which is an important factor for me.

There was a fridge but no microwave which I found a little odd.

Walls were fairly thin and we had a first floor room. Loud neighbors above were stomping around at all hours and dropping things on the floor! Also anyone walking by and having a conversation was clearly heard in the room. Also freeway and road at a distance can be heard. So wasn’t a great night sleep.

Coffee tea was offered and ‘breakfast’ was available but only granola bars, oatmeal packets, and muffins were out.

Price was reasonable and overall a good value.

The hotel is under construction. They have you check in down the corridor from the office in a hotel room, which feels sketchy. They should use the room next to the former office. The staff working the office charged me more for a deposit than the actual price of the room and condescendingly explained that the hotel is under new ownership, and the price of the deposit has gone up.

The hotel is currently being updated which hadn't been disclosed at the time of booking.

The room was nice, being recently updated, but did not have a coffee or tea maker, extra blankets, or a hair dryer. The shower leaked water all over the floor, which could definitely be a hazard.
