At Rodeway Inn Encinitas North, travellers highlight a walkable location near the beach and good value, but opinions split on room condition and cleanliness, with some renovated rooms praised while others feel dated, noisy, and poorly maintained.

Staff feedback is mixed, ranging from very friendly and accommodating to rude or unhelpful, and many guests report unexpected add-on fees at check-in.

They are in the process of remodeling the rooms. I had a remodeled room that could have been a lot cleaner and could have had more thoughtful features (maybe they are not done yet?) Eg the bathroom window did not close and the screen was filthy. There wasn’t a shelf or ledge in the shower to put soap or shampoo bottles so it had to sit on the floor. Also you have to stand in the shower to turn on the water as one door is stationary. The 2 shades don’t make the room dark for sleeping. A nice mini-kitchen with a stove, brand new, but no kettle, coffee or other kitchen items. Nice to have motion sensor lights under the bed! Like the new decor. Good to have a new mattress and sheets! Very nice staff.

Great location that is an easy walk to the Grandview stairs leading down to the beach. Shops and restaurants are nearby with a quick walk or really short drive. Very no frills, not even a coffee maker, but multiple coffee shops right next door. Not immaculately clean, but clean enough. Parking is limited and TIGHT! Overall, well worth the stay. We'll probably stay again.

The property itself on the outside it whatever, we came to see the beaches, and everything else in the area, but the room was disgusting, like no one tried to clean it. The bath looked like a dead body was poorly cleaned up in it, and the paint of the bath was peeling off. Ants came out of the drain and swarmed the trash can. We were given towels but had to throw some to the side because they came with weird stains and such. It’s cheap for the price and maybe a one time stay but i wouldn’t come back. The room looks nothing like the pictures.

The Rodeway inn is a choice brand hotel. It matches the star rating and I got exactly what I was expecting. The only gripe I had was the WiFi was a bit spotty. Reception staff were friendly, personable and helpful. They don’t have uniforms like a 4 or 5 star hotel, but there were very nice people, all of them. The location was great and close to the beach, right next door to a nice little coffee stand. Overall fantastic value and matched my expectations.

For the price, you can't beat it. Midweek stay. Was quieter than expected. The bed was old, but firm. The TV was great. hvac worked great. I was very comfortable. The shower was old and stained. It's not a huge deal for a bachelor. I wish there was a chair, or proper place to sit and work or eat. The couch in room was not comfortable.

Getting here isn’t easy as it looks. Better go 25 mph and look ahead or listen to GPS and follow their directions or you’ll miss it. Checking in was fairly easy and quick. What I didn’t care for was that there was a $5 fee when you check in that I didn’t know about, but whatever. Once I got to my room, I was surprised with how spacious it was and thankful for how comfortable the bed was. Having a/c is always a must for me and I was glad it worked really well. But having the option of a ceiling fan was a really nice touch. The area around you is fairly quiet and you get a feeling of safety as well. It may be a bit of a walk, but you will be gifted with an amazing view of the beach and the smell of ocean air as you approach it. Just be warned though, the stairs that lead down to the beach is a bit steep so watch your step. I would definitely recommend this place again to anyone that needs a quick place to stay and a quiet nights sleep.

Only there one night (unexpectedly) so the $60 rate was a deal! Because the rate was so good I decided to take a chance on the location right on Highway 1 and I paid for it with lost sleep - even though it was a low traffic volume I heard every single car that went by! If you could get a quiet room near the back this would be an exceptional location. Oh, and check your bathroom window - mine was stuck in the open position (a skinny thief could climb through).

I rarely rate this low, but sadly it is deserved. The room was not in good shape. The toiletries were non-existent. The technology required a rocket scientist to get working. I called the front desk and was treated extremely rudely for not knowing that I needed to hold a button under the belly of the TV for 5 seconds to coordinate the remote to the tv. The pillows were lumpy and very uncomfortable. This is one place that I will not be giving a second chance.

The front desk was being chewed out while I was waiting to check in. The guy was livid. I didn\'t find out what it was about. When I went to add a night via Expedia after staying 3 days a different front desk clerk came to my room and asked for another $30 for an "online booking fee." I told my son to challenge that, and the lady said then he should at least pay a $20 "management fee." He challenged that and they threw him out of the room. Expedia called them and they told Expedia that my son trashed the room. He didn\'t. They said I didn\'t leave a deposit so the made-up fee was actually $40. I did pay a deposit and I bet it\'s pretty hard to get it back. DON\'T STAY HERE!!!!!

Overall it was a great stay. Convenient to many restaurants and grocery stores and coffee cafés. You do have a few homeless people that hang around in the evening. Love the decor of the room, beds were comfy. Stayed in a Deluxe room that had a small kitchenette, but there was no kitchenware. Not sure if you had to ask for it or not. Only complaint, was that the floor was pretty dirty.
