We went over the contract thoroughly, eventually deciding that we would bring our own vendors (taquero, DJ, photographer, baker, event decorator, and 360 photo booth), as I have known many of these people for years and have an established, trusting relationship with most of them. Joseph said that was perfectly fine, the only service that we had to use from his side was the bartender, which my husband and I understood. During this meeting we also met his assistant Patty and were told that she would also be helping us through this process, but that he was always available, and we would have his complete attention the week of and leading to the day of our daughter's celebration. Part of our contract states that we were able to bring the supplies/decor/spirits to the venue the week of the quince. So, on May 4th, my family and I filled the event room with the decorations et al, that we would be using for the following Saturday, the 9th. Every single day, Monday through Friday that week, my mom and I were at the venue, sorting through boxes, opening packages, putting the cake table pieces together, setting up the candy bar, making sure that when the day of came, everything would be organized and ready for the staff to take out to decorate. Friday afternoon (5/8) we met with Patty to clarify all of this. But first let me elaborate a bit more... My family and I had informed Joseph and Patty that we would be bringing some salads, fruit/vegetable platters, and items for a nacho bar that would need to be set up before we arrived. Joseph explained that he did not have enough staff to help with that (8 people doing various jobs, still unsure of what) and that either myself or a friend/family member would need to come and get this ready because he could not accommodate this. We were so grateful that our BAKER, who is not employed by the venue, was able to help with this since she was also arriving early to bring the desserts for the cake table. More on that in a minute. When we arrived at the venue the day of the quince, it looked beautiful, the tables looked ready, centerpieces, runners, etc. then I started noticing that there was so much more missing, and my guests were already walking into the party space. For starters, I did not see hardly any staff in the party area and Patty was unfortunately running around like a madman. She was feverishly trying to set up the luminaries and LED pillars we had brought for the garden walkway. I also noticed that the fruit/veggie/nacho bar table was not set up. I ended up rushing to the clubhouse where all of this was being stored and took everything out of the refrigerator myself. I encountered a staff member on the way back who said to me, "Oh are you the mom? Oh let me know what you need help with." My mind was absolutely boggled. Did my family and I NOT just spend the entire week here and leave detailed instructions? And then... While carrying said fruit/vegetable trays, I walked by the tables to notice that there were not any "reserved" signs placed. We had asked for two tables to be held for the immediate family. I had mentioned this to one of the staff, I believe Lily (she was very lovely) and said she would get right on it. About 10 minutes later I saw that the signs were there, but what I learned the following week was that one of the tables already had guests sitting at it and they were promptly asked to move to another table. Sigh... And then... Once my husband and I were able to catch our breath, we grabbed a quick drink. Jason was our bartender, very kind and solid drinks. While we were at the bar, Joseph came up to talk to us, telling Jason that someone got sick in the bathroom and that he had to stop serving hard alcohol for an hour. Mind you, the bar has only been open about forty-five minutes, and no one has had any shots or is intoxicated. We all disagreed with this but had to oblige. By this time, we were falling behind schedule and had to do the main entrance. Then I realized that I had not seen my daughter in almost two hours, the sun was starting to set, and we did not take any pictures with her in this beautiful space because we had to do the jobs that we had hired this venue for. In the end: No pictures with our daughter in this space that cost half our budget Staff enjoyed our taquero without checking to make sure all of our guests had eaten Saw photos of Joseph and his staff enjoying our 360 photo booth Learned that 80% of my vendors experienced an unpleasant encounter with Joseph My guests were unsatisfied with parking/golf cart availability Not enough restroom signage Reports from vendors state as of 2pm, tablecloths weren't even on the tables.

So I have to say John and his wonderful and beautiful customer service that he gave us was awesome The next day when it was time for us to leave we called up and John was there and we requested a luggage rack and he came up and brought us a luggage rack we were able to go downstairs and check out so smoothly You did everything with the smile it was wonderful ruined expecting that but we got a wonderful service for the job You deserves to be praised and we're praising him through Yelp. when we come back to El cajon will definitely stay at this hotel room it was big enough I mean big enough for us it felt like a sweet but not really but for us always ordering two beds we always get a double with this time we got cleans and which was nice. We have pictures to show you.

Skip ahead 2 years and it's run down, dirty, and staff doesn't care. The last time I booked, I contacted the hotel to cancel the stay, spoke to Sebastian (mentioned several times in reviews for being unhelpful), and attempted to cancel due to a medical issue that prevented me from traveling. He denied the cancelation, saying its policy and he couldn't change it and to call Hilton. I did, Who said that he could cancel this, but he didn't want to do that. He wouldn't reschedule this, cancel this, or work with me even being a diamond member. Other hiltons will cancel reservations when things like this happens, but this won't. Overall, skip this location by all means. It's run down, questionable cleaning practices, but on a plus, you don't have to go far for some food as it shares a parking lot with fast food options.

I drove all the way there after a long work day only to be told they gave my room away because they overbooked. No room. No help. Just "sorry." So now it's late at night, I'm covered in work grime from a full day in the field, and I had to drive around to six or seven different hotels trying to find somewhere to shower and sleep before work in the morning. Here's the part that really blows my mind... I checked my bank account this morning and Motel 6 still charged me $180 for the room they gave to someone else. I've tried calling the hotel. I've tried calling corporate. Nobody answers. Nobody calls back. Charging someone for a room you didn't provide while leaving them stranded is not just bad customer service -- it's unacceptable. So maybe someone can help explain this. @ABC10News @CBS8SanDiego @FOX5SanDiego @NBC7SanDiego If a company is charging customers for rooms they never received, people probably deserve to know. Motel 6 -- I'd simply like the $187 back for the room you gave to someone else.

This is the furthest inland I've stayed in San Diego and it was an adventure…read more Took Flixbus into town and if I had time I would've taken public transportation to the Rodeway Inn but I had an event to attend. So I got a car service. We talked and the closer we got to the Lemon Grove area of San Diego the more I realized this place is urban contemporary. Noted the Food4Less and Dollar Tree store if I needed anything after my event. Check in to the Rodeway Inn on Broadway was interesting. The door to the lobby was locked even thought it being early evening with the sun still up. The nice receptionist pointed to the side of the building to check in. I walked around the side to a plexiglass window and checked in. Read the sign on the wall about check out, non-smoking...etc. The receptionist was nice, well dressed, professional and gave me my room card. My room was on the ground floor. As I crossed to my room a shirtless older man was in the parking lot talking to himself. Inside my room it smelt like cigarettes. I'm sure the receptionist told me this inn was non-smoking. So I turned on the air conditioner to air out the room. Hurriedly freshened up and ironed my clothes for the event. My event was to see a theater premiere at The Moxie Theatre which was less than 10 invite drive from the Rodeway Inn. I ordered my car service. When my driver arrived I stepped out of the room and the look on her face was happy. She was nervous that the shirtless person was her guest. On the way to the theatre she asked me why I chose that inn and I told here that i'm just here to see my friends show and Rodeway Inn was close by. She told me this area is touch and go. After the theatre performance and mingling afterwards I went back to the Rodeway Inn to chill. The room smelled less smoky thanks to the air conditioner. I showered and grabbed the remote control to turn on the television to watch Saturday Night Live. The only thing that came up on the tv was "no signal". I tried all three output and no change. So I tried several times and no change. Ended up just watching things & scrolling on my phone. In the morning I relaxed and packed up around 10:15am. At 10:30am i headed to the plexiglass office area to check out. A woman exited a side door as I pressed to call button. No one came to the window. I pressed to call button about 3 times in five minutes with no employee to appear. I started thinking is this how they charge customers if they do not check out by 11am? Well the cleaning attendant stood next to me and knocked on the plexiglas. Because she had someone's phone and to tell the worker that a particular room had smokers. Guess they charge them. Finally an older man came from the back room looking tired. He received said phone and the room number of the smokers. I checked out and asked for a printed receipt. Did not want any unnecessary charges. The stay was nice. Very comfortable bed but the activity in the parking lot with random men walking around was shady at this inn. I walked to the subway station. It's very close.
