What guests think

At Residence Inn San Diego Oceanside, guests often praise friendly staff, clean and spacious suites, and a quiet location with nearby dining, while feedback is mixed on breakfast variety, some furnishings, and occasional maintenance, noise, or policy issues.

Suites are set up well for families or longer stays, though several guests report uncomfortable or worn sofa beds and occasional issues like loud AC, faulty locks, or running toilets. Some guests noted unclear charges or policy enforcement, including a surprise parking fee and lax smoking control by the pool, though responses to requests were generally quick. Guests appreciate the pool area and on-site market; having a car is helpful for getting around, and nearby bar activity can be heard at night. Expect a generally comfortable stay with a few inconsistencies.

The staff was excellent. Jackie (front desk) was very helpful. Cleaning serviece did a great job. But it WAS NOT worth the $500 a night. It was tiny inside the hotel room. When you closed the door you can hear the people in the living room clear as day! The rooms are not a big as they portray in the pictures. The toilet paper was falling off the rack, they only gave a washcloth to do dishes. There was trash behind the couch. You can hear dogs barking across the hall..The hand soap made your hands super dry. There wasnt even fresh fruit at the breakfast buffet. I expected way more then what we got, mostly because of the price. And no ice vending machines? Wold definitely not spend my money here again

Nice rooms that are a bit dated for the price you pay. People at pool partying at 3am and an arrest out from made the stay feel not so safe and not under control. Overall, I would stay again only if the price was not so expensive for what you get.

The staff was friendly , the hotel was clean and it was perfectly situated by the stadium. The mattress in our room was too big and hung over the base. We had to change rooms. The entry way and pool area smelled of smoke and cigar smoke. It was excessive and overpowering. It didn’t seem that the staff implemented the no smoking rules as several people were smoking by the pool at all hours of the day.

The location of this property was great. Super quiet area and a little plaza with several different dining options. Our room was great for our family of 5. Pool was nice and clean, well maintained. Breakfast was good too, many different options. Only issues we had in our room was the deadbolt lock, it wouldn’t engage when we turned to lock the door. We used the top latch mostly but it was still a little scary not having any extra sense of security.

The room was overall fairly comfortable, and the amenities were appreciated. I docked some points on cleanliness, because the sofa and chairs had visible filth and grime on the armrests, and the couch cushions were stained. The pull out sofa bed was not clean either.

This hotel has bed bugs. Don't stay here, and especially not in room 321. I went to bed with no bites on my body, woke up took off my pajamas and covered literally in bed bug bites. PAINFUL, AND VERY ITCHY. I DON'T THINK I WILL WANT TO EVER STAY AT THIS HOTEL AGAIN. NO THANK YOU.

Easy stay, staff that checked us in at 10pm was nice and helpful. Our suite room is big and clean. Cabinets looked like they need updating but not that important really. Only thing is, at night there might be people talking outside and you might hear them if you’re in the 1st floor. There’s a bar in the same plaza so you will either be a part of that sound or you don’t want it. Overall it was a good stay. Breakfast was free for us as well +++!

Everything was ok except the sofa. As a sofa the cushions sunk into the frame when you sat down. As a sofa bed it was awful. As soon as it was open you could see how thin and sagging the mattress was. It was nearly impossible to sleep in. The desk clerk admitted they were due to be replaced but quality sleep is important before a busy family vacation day.

Breakfast was ok. My 2-bedroom was ok except for slow drainage in the sink, dirty microwave, no bedding for the pull out bed, for 3 tvs there were 2 remotes. For the price I paid gave me a reason to choose differently next time I choose to seek out a hotel to accommodate a family function due to the cold reception and inability to clarify services the hotel charges for without being referred to Expedia, which I did not book my stay through.
