What guests think

At Ramada by Wyndham San Diego Poway Miramar, reviewers describe a convenient, generally quiet location and some friendly staff, but report inconsistent experiences overall, with notable complaints about cleanliness, maintenance, and ongoing construction affecting comfort and ease of stay.

Rooms are basic with hard beds, noisy or weak air conditioning, and spotty Wi-Fi reported by several guests. Parking is tight and poorly lit for some, the pool is small and sometimes unclean, and there is no elevator to upper floors. Breakfast is minimal with limited options, though a few guests found it adequate. Expect an affordable, no-frills stay with mixed standards.

For the price, this could’ve been better. In fact, the only good part about it was the shower. The bathroom remodel looks great. The rest? Not so much. There’s very limited parking, very limited lighting, and if there are no rooms available on the first floor, anyone who has an issue with stairs will find this problematic very quickly. I can’t speak for the entire hotel, but my TV remote only turned the TV on and off. Even though I asked about it multiple times, there was never an answer. also, I’m not sure what’s going on, but it seems as if there may be a cell reception blocker. Hard to say, though. The bed was fine, the pillows were too small, but they worked fine and I didn’t try the breakfast, so I can’t speak on that. The only staff on site is the cleaning person and a front desk attendant. I should mention, the front desk attendant does not show you where your room even is. You simply look up your number, and figure it out. This much I can say: I won’t be returning because for the price you pay, it’s not worth it. No TV, spotty Internet, seemingly very little customer service, and no parking for anything bigger than a small car, and even that is a very limited space.

The bed sheets are very scratchy and thin. The floors were absolutely filthy and the bottom of our feet were black within a few minutes of walking around. The air conditioning unit was broken and I had to tape the blades up to point out. Moldy smell. Bug in bed sheets. Absolutely FILTHY and unusable pool. Went to grab the pool filter to clean and it was ratty with a dozen holes in it. I took pictures of all of this. This hotel was very run down and dirty. Very upsetting we couldn't even get pool use out of it. MOUNDS of dirt/leaves and bugs in entire half of pool. Looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a year. No excuse because all rainstorms had been a week before so they had time to clean.

Room was clean, parking area was a lil narrow, pool was small but decent has a grill which was a major plus one ice machine which is right next to the office, we only stayed 2 days but housekeeping didn’t come to our room maybe if requested they wud have. Room had a smart tv which is able to get Netflix prime video tubi etc.. check in was easy and fast the front desk person treated me weird and watched our every move when we came out of our room even came out of the office to watch us at the pool and when we unpacked our belongings made me a bit offended but we still enjoyed our time in our room would recommend for a decent place to rest your head very convenient had food places and stores within walking distance.

I like this Ramada, it’s very close to smart & final and some restaurants that you can just walk to the place. Staff are friendly. Complimentary breakfast is ok, they have waffle, cereals, bread and fruits. But, I wish they have boiled eggs and bananas. The only challenges is when you go back late at night, parking is kind of hard because the truck and other stuff that they are using for remodeling the building are occupying about 12 parking spots. I always have to go to the front desk to ask where to park. Other than that, this Ramada is not far from San Diego State University and is about 25 mins away from Little Italy.

You can tell that they remodeled the room with paint and hardwood floors. But the floors were dirty and the cabinet that the TV was on around the bottom area you could tell an animal chewed all along it. One night we had a roach in the bathroom, killed it and flushed it. In the office area where they have free breakfast the first morning going in there at 6:10 and they opened at 6 AM. It was very dirty. The waffle maker had a bunch of burnt stuff in it. There was three containers that had pancake batter in it just sitting there. There was crumbs all over the counter and one morning there was even a mattress right there in the hallway that was connected to the eating area by the coffee machine. The guys at the front desk were busy on their phone instead of cleaning the eating area. And there was nobody in there so clearly this was from the day before. The outside is very old-fashioned and the parking lot was pretty rough looking. While sitting there, I looked up at reviews and I see a lot of the same complaints on those reviews.

I will never go on this property again. The bathroom was stinking. There was something wrong the moment we put the heater /AC unit on the bathroom would start stinking. Unlivable conditions. The towels which were put in our room had stains on it. The staff was ok. The breakfast offered was so so basic. I will never go back, and you should not book it either. It's really cheap property.

Ants in the bathroom. Bathroom sink drain had a smell that made me gag when brushing my teeth. I asked for a ground level room in a message ahead of arrival because my wife has knee issues but we were given a second level that used stairs for access. Parking area was uneven and not easy to navigate with mobility issues.

The room was not cleaned well. Hair everywhere in the bathroom. There was no coffee pot. And only 1 regular coffee. When the sunk was turned on, water ran from the side and then started dripping intobthe floor if you did not place a wash cloth beside the faucet.

Sunday morning got a call from front desk asking when we were checking out which I confirmed as 11:00 am, at approximately 10:45 maids started knocking on door repeatedly. Very irritating! Don't waste your time or money staying here.

It was a long day. The check in was great, but when we got to our room, it was not. I paid for a king bed room and we got a 2 queen bed room. And honestly I was too exhausted to make a big deal about it. The ac unit was making so much noise it kept my wife up. But the room was super clean.

It was a good value fornthe price. The room clean and spacious but a little dated. There was a small frige and microwave for convenience. It was putdoor room entry so no elevators for the disabled and the only ice machine that I found was near the check- in are a which was a little walk away. Overall, it was good fornthe price point.

I checked out on July 23 and i still haven’t had my deposit from my credit card released. I called them, they said to contact my bank because it was released on their end. I contacted my bank and they tried to force release it but they said the hotel hasn’t released it. I called Ramada again, they said they will email me a screen shot of the money being released. I still haven my received that email ! So frustrating! Best not to stay there at all

Checked in just fine, went to our room and there was a strong bad odor. We found it was coming from the sink, the pipes. We turned on the air and tried to open windows and it didnt go away. I messaged the property and they came by to pour cleaner down the sink, nothint changed the smell. They said i couldnt get a new room since no vacancy and couldnt give me a refund for the room until checkout. When i go to check out, they say i have to call in the morning since the manager is out. I contact the property and they denied my refund. Will not be back!

My experience at the Ramada was very terrible I drove 30 minutes after work arrived about at 7:38 p.m. only to be told by the front desk attendant they had canceled my reservation stating that I was supposed to be in the room by 5:00 p.m. however I argue the fact that on the website and majority of hotels check-ins starts at 3:00 p.m. and goes to about 10:00 or 11:00 p.m. at night me arriving at 7:30 p.m. was more than enough time the front desk attendant did not make any attempt to try to accommodate me he stated that he would try he didn't even look in the computer to see if there were any rooms available he just looked at me and told me that he didn't have anything for me and that they were completely booked which I found out later was a complete lie I will never patronize your mother ever again my experience was horrible and I spent the next 3 hours trying to find some place to stay for the night

Night 1, no hot water. Asked staff to please look into it while we were out for the day. Came back and felt hot water so I went to bed with plans to shower before checking out in the morning. Got in the shower the next morning and the water went I ice cold as soon as my hair was full of shampoo. I waited for a few minutes until I realized I was going to have to suck it up and rinse off in that freezing water. When I got out, I crawled under the thin bedding, shivering and called the desk. I told them I was going to expect some sort of discount, which seems reasonable to me. The girl said the manager wasn't there but she would be sure he got my information and would call me the next day. After not hearing from anyone I called the hotel around 7:30pm the next day. After 3 tries to get through I was hung up on 3 times. Like somebody just picked up the phone and hung out up again. My conclusion is that the people running this place have zero concern for their guests. If you choose to stay here, I hope you have a better experience than we did.

If you want to stay somewhere just outside of the city. Where quiet is at a premium and affordable. Ramada hotel is the place. Just a 20 minute drive from the airport. It seems like you’re a long way from the city. But you near most attractions within a 20 minute drive.

We had been here before and it was a great stay the last time. However this time, the hotel was being maintained when we went, they were doing stucco patching and general construction. Room 102 had septic smells, we had to leave the fan on to avoid being choked out from it. Bedsheets were sticky and the AC filter hadn't been changed for years, we both experienced horrible hay fever. The Breakfast station was extremely limited, might as well not even have one, the waffle iron was down, no bagels, limited fruit.
