Great price, clean, spacious and newly remodeled rooms in an older hotel. Pool was a no go. But everything else was great

I found a cochroach in my room. When I brought the cochroach to the front desk, the attendant freaked out when he saw it, and then told me he would report it to the manager. I never heard anything from management. My daughter attends SDSU. We will not be staying here the next time we travel to SD to visit her. I suggest anyone who might want to stay here to find different accommodations.

Stayed 3 nights

Stayed for 3 nights. Hotel smells like heavy duty cleaning products. Made a reservation upon check in for room to be cleaned after 1st & 2nd night(since they require reservations for that). Was not cleaned first day. Rude front desk staff. We had people in the next room being so loud and shouting. Called the front desk. They said since it was not “quiet hours” they couldn’t do anything about it. Got a text from the hotel after the first night asking how the stay was going. Replied with a “1”(lowest score). Never heard anything. Do not stay here.
