I booked directly so I think I got a fair price for California.

This one is a bit of a mixed review, I typically stay at Hilton properties while traveling and…read morealways enjoy Hampton Inn and Suites. I ultimately gave them a 3, but leaning towards a 4, just been in more updated properties, that is why are ended up at a 3. This particular Hampton is a Hampton Inn, not Inn and suites. Did not realize that, but not a big deal. The rooms were still pretty spacious and comfortable. The staff here was very good, smiling, helpful, offered me some snacks for being a Gold member, thank you. The hotel itself was comfortable, but it is on the older side, but still has an outdoor pool, breakfast area and a small gym. So really all the things you need for a comfortable stay. I did not try out the pool, but the breakfast was good and the gym worked, but lacked a bench, which makes a big difference when trying to get a good workout in. The rooms have a slightly larger mini fridge, which is nice to store leftovers and a small freezer section, A coffee maker and a microwave, very convenient. Bed was comfortable as well. There was actually a group of soccer player staying at the hotel that were pretty loud, but once in the rooms, could not really hear them that much, so the walls had decent insulation. As far as the review, here is the good and what could be improved and the weighted average lead me to a 3. Hotel common area's 3 Room 3 Free Breakfast 4 Free parking 5 Gym 2.5 Pool 4 I think this hotel could easily be a 4, maybe even a 5 with an update to the decor and rooms and if they could reconfigure the gym to add a bench and maybe a bigger footprint, but even just adding a bench would bump it up to a 4 for me. They did have dumbbell's up to 70 or 75 lbs, which is a plus. If you are looking for a comfortable stay, reasonable rates, free parking and breakfast and a good overall value, this is a good choice. No frills, just a clean place to stay. I would recommend. I would imagine they will update soon as all around them is up and coming and building a lot of new modern structures, I would hope they would to keep up with the area. Enjoy!

There is only one elevator in the middle of guest rooms without sign. I walked right by it not seeing it the first time.

You also have an In-N-Out Burger nearby along with the 7-Eleven a chipotle and Panera so this location is ideal if you're looking to save money and be in a convenient location, where you have plenty of options on Dining and shopping. Our room was on the second floor with a private balcony that overlooked the parking lot so we enjoyed that because we were able to have easy unobstructed view of our vehicle. We had our service animals with us and the hotel employees were very accommodating to that fact. We want to send a big shout out to Raj (the manager) for doing such a great job. The breakfast that's included definitely serves its purpose and the gym and computer center are also very helpful. Should you need them. We do recommend this location, especially if you're looking to save money but yet still be surrounded by convenient options and if you wanna make your way over to La Jolla Shores Beach it's only 20 minutes away and well worth it.

Turning on the air required a diploma from MIT, and then it was tepid. But the room was clean. To be fair, when I complained and asked for a different room the staff was very accommodating and checked several rooms until he found one with good air. However when I tried to start the water for a shower the knob came off in my hand and I had to piece it back together. The toilet seat and the sink faucett were both loose. The king size bed had a dip in the middle and which resulted in my friend and I rolling downhill and getting very chummy. The breakfast had a good variety and the free popcorn machine in the lobby was a nice bonus. The biggest problem was getting in and out of the parking lot which shared space with an In n Out and a Canes and had one driveway. That was challenging at the lunch and dinner rush. AAA offers a good discount.

The room itself was what you would expect from a typical Marriott property. Clean, comfortable, and nothing out of the ordinary. The most disappointing part for me was the breakfast. As someone who eats plant based, my options were extremely limited. I ended up having oatmeal and bananas both mornings while watching most guests enjoy bacon and eggs. I was honestly expecting a bit more variety, especially fresh fruit, which feels like a basic for a standard Western hotel breakfast. On a positive note, the guy sitting on the bench outside was the best part. Overall, it was an okay stay, but I do wish there were more inclusive breakfast options, especially at that price point.

I called the Front Desk to let them know what the issue was and to also ask when the last time the pool was cleaned and if it was safe to get into: they told me the pool guy had just cleaned it that morning, although I would absolutely question that. Otherwise, our day was pretty decent better than I anticipated as far as the rooms go and beds were pretty comfortable, etc.

The bed looked unsanitary. The orange ottoman looked like a dog peed on the bottom of it. The bathroom floor was dirty. The mini fridge is sitting on the dirty floor. The AC was on 68 and the room was hot & musty. $276!!!! Insane! I left & got a really nice clean room at another hotel near by for less, with nice amenities.

After a long day of work, I was exhausted and needed to find a nearby hotel at a rate that was…read morereimbursable through my employer. After doing a quick "around me" search, Holiday Inn Express & Suites San Diego-Escondido popped up. Doing a cross-check between Yelp and Google, I saw that they had pretty good reviews. Being that they only had two rooms available for the desired price, I did not hesitate to book the reservation. Although the establishment had good reviews pertaining to the cleanliness and amenities of the hotel, poor customer service was a reoccurring theme in the reviews that I read. Therefore, I was shocked when I entered the establishment and was warmly greeted by a front desk employee by the name of Mark. Mark informed me about the hotel's amenities (including the free breakfast) and quickly checked me in. He also saw that I had dinner from the nearby California Fish Grill (the hotel is in close proximity to many restaurants and fast food establishments) and offered my utensils...talk about being attentive! My third floor room was very clean and appropriately furnished (to my delight the room had both a refrigerator and microwave). Although the room faced the busy freeway, the insulation was so good that I could barely hear anything. I liked the little touches such as the mirror with built-in vanity lighting around the perimeter. My only gripe was that the television was a traditional model with a few cable channels; in 2025 I would expect all hotel rooms to be equipped with a SMART TV that has built-in streaming platforms (e.g., Netflix, HBO Max). The following day, I grabbed a coffee from the cafeteria and quickly checked out. I enjoyed my stay here and will return if I'm in the area again!

Driving in and out of the hotel was a pain. This hotel isn't your typical hotel with restaurants in it. There wasn't food nearby within the hotel so I had to rely on food delivery. At least with the rooms, you can prepare your own food which is a plus. Their continental breakfast was basic, but did the job. The rooms which are coined suites, are large and spacious. The big downfall is really the paper thin walls. Even when wearing earplugs, I can hear the next door neighbors. The noise kept waking me up, resulting in a bad nights sleep. I wouldn't stay here again. Also, they charge $5/day for onsite parking which is obnoxious.

Staff was friendly, courteous, and helpful - even carried my luggage down the stairs for me! Coffee, DeCaf, & Hot Water/Tea is available in the lobby 24/7, but there was no coffee maker in my room, which I would have preferred. The black-out curtains are GREAT, yet I would've also loved some sheer drapes too, so you can open the black-out drapes & still have privacy in your room during the day.

CONs--The sheets had hair on them, so it looks like they weren't changed. The place doesn't have elevators, and we were on the 3rd floor. Come on now, this isn't 1850, get an elevator.
