What guests think

At Ramada Suites by Wyndham San Diego Hotel Circle Area, reviews describe friendly staff and a central location, but also note dated or under-renovation areas, inconsistent room quality, and issues like odors, noise, and maintenance problems that affected comfort.

Multiple guests report the hot tub frequently out of service, an occasionally closed or unheated pool, and paid parking that feels tight or limited. Breakfast feedback is largely negative, citing very basic options, items running out early, and broken waffle makers, though a few found it acceptable. Cleanliness feels inconsistent: some rooms are spotless or newly refreshed, while others had strong smells, ants or roaches, and visible wear. Expect a budget stay with convenient access, variable room conditions, and better service than amenities.

The jets in the hot tub didn't work. We kept having to get our key to our room recharged. The waffle maker broke and the breakfast was not very good either. You could hear people in the hallway talking or rolling their suitcases. The building was not kept up. For what I spent, I didn't get the value

Clean hotel. Needs some maintenance. Elevator very rickety. Hot tub was warm, but the jets didn’t work at all and the controls are outside the fenced pool area on the opposite side of the gate, which means you had to go out and all the way around to control the jets, which ended up not working at all. Breakfast was non-existent. It was bad for even a continental breakfast. Really only cold cereal and bagels. Some fruit. Nothing. Else. Only thing to drink was coffee, no other options. Hallways were noisy, door didn’t block much noise. Charging $14 per night for parking in a tiny lot that really had no room to park in is exorbitant. It was clean and in a good location though.

The stay was adequate for my husband and I. The room clean. The bed very cozy and comfortable. Good shower. They didnt tell us they were in renovations, so many oddities. But Staff always made it right if they could. No microwave in room. Had to go to dining room. Frig didnt work, so maintenance brought another one. Swimming pool clean and heated. Jacuzzi heated, but no bubbles. 2nd day no internet all day and night, so we left 3rd day. The breakfast adequate to good. I made a waffle, they ran out of breakfast sandwiches. We had to ask them to get more. Breakfast had usual bagels, cereal, yoghurt, fruit, coffee. Other guest told us their TV didnt work and the shower handle fell off. Internet photos were misleading. They were from when open earlier. We paid $125/nite when comparable hotels were less without the problems. If you're just looking for a clean room, comfortable bed, quick breakfast, then it's OK.

Extremely bad experience - room was very small size and had couple cockrokches in the room. Breakfast service was soo soo bad - they started taking away breakfast items at 9.20am, whereas the breakfast time was until 9.30am. Moreover, at 9am they didn't had half of the things- no milk, no juice, no water, no yogurt- anything I asked for, the last at service there just responded - don't have any more. I won't recommend this property at all..I never gave a feedback for any stay before but I had to - for this as this is my worst stay experience in years...I hope the owner and management take note of this..

I’m not sure how to describe the smell. Rotten crotch maybe? Honestly the entire building smelled bad. When you run the water in the room, the entire room would reek like something rotten. I am also sensitive to mold and this property is in need of some help . I feel bad for the employees who have to work in these conditions. I expected more from a Ramada, I should have known it would be bad from the price. Breakfast consisted of breads cereals yogurt and waffles if you want to wait 30 min for others to make theirs. I would not stay at this property again

Where do I begin. This place reminded me of a homeless shelter. Weird pee smell in the lobby. Skip the breakfast as the breakfast room was dirty. If you must take your plastic bowl of cereal outside. Strange splatters of liquids on the walls and doors all down the hallways. Curtains in the room didn’t block out any of the hall lights that stayed on all night including the one that shined thru the bathroom window, no curtain in there. 10$ a night to park? Humm we stayed two nights and were charged for three nights of parking , this was refunded after asking to take it off. And we didn’t even arrive with a car?? Just avoid this place. Sketchy cars on blocks out front with people sleeping inside the vehicles. Didn’t use the pool so don’t have anything to say about that.

The room smelt like sewage, the room was filthy ( brown spots all over the floor and chair), there was dead bugs (not bedbugs) on one of the beds. I called the desk to ask for another room or if someone could change the sheets and was told they were completely booked and they had no one that could come help. Bathroom had holes in the wall, missing tiles by the bathtub/floor. I will never stay again.

Needed a hotel close to the Hillcrest hospital areas while in town visiting my father. The sleeping part of the room was small and bed only a short (less than a foot) distance from the door and window, which made falling asleep a little tricky since you could hear people walking by the room feel like they were walking right by my head (which i guess they were, technically). The bathroom area was spacious as was the “sitting” area. Other than that, I’ll likely stay here again if i need to but there are cozier feeling options at a similar price point in the same area.

Very nice hotel. The bed was very comfortable, soft and enough fluffy pillows. That was really all I needed. Some things I did notice: They could use a little more variety for breakfast. They didn't have anything listing the services available. I had to ask. They put the WiFi password on the key envelope, but not the network name. There was one called Ramada Guest, but it didn't ask for a password and didn't have internet access. I never figured out which one was the right network.

The staff were ok. We called ahead and asked for a pack and play to be in our room for an eighteen month old who was very cranky at 8:15pm. We had just returned from Catalina and were exhausted. We were assured it would be there. It wasn't . We had to wait a half hour before we were given a broken one. Needless to say, the night wasn't fun. We were told there would be free parking on the hotel.com website. There wasn't . We were charged $14 a night each for 2 cars. We had to leave one car there on our initial stay on the 21st and were charged a $14 parking fee for 2 days. The rooms looked tired. The breakfast was not as advertised. All in all, our stay was eghhh. Would'nt recommend

Muy mala experiencia

We stayed for three nights, and the first room we were given had a strong unpleasant odor. Fortunately, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and they moved us to a better room the next morning. The hotel is a bit dated and was undergoing renovations during our stay, which may have contributed to some of the issues. Breakfast was okay but very limited—only a small selection of items, and just one waffle maker for the entire hotel, which caused long waits during the morning rush. We also experienced ongoing issues with the key card readers, which became quite frustrating. Despite these setbacks, the staff was consistently helpful and welcoming, which we really appreciated.

We had a pleasant two-day stay at your hotel. The highlight was definitely the room, which was sparkling clean with beautiful, brand-new furniture. The coffee station was convenient, though providing some complimentary bottled water would be a fantastic addition for guest comfort. The provided breakfast was satisfactory, offering staples like fruit, waffles, and bagels. To improve the experience further, we suggest ensuring consistency with hot items like eggs each morning and perhaps adding some cold juices or water alongside the hot coffee and tea options. The hotel has great potential, and implementing these minor adjustments would surely help tourists have a more seamless and enjoyable stay while visiting the wonderful San Diego area.

It was okay. The breakfast was terrible it’s only cold food. The muffins were small and basic. The cereal is just old people cereal (sorry) small apples and small oranges. I would recommend going to get breakfast somewhere else. The parking is 14 bucks a night and that’s just the normal rate. I would only recommend this if this is your last resort. The room we had, had a leak so I told the front desk they did give us another room but basically had to beg them to give me something for the inconvenience. Never coming back. Go somewhere else.

The room was basic. It could have been a little cleaner, hard wood floors needing moping. There is a pool and jacuzzi which was nice. The pool isn't heated. Breakfast was the most basic. There wasn't juice or tea. The phone in the room didn't work. Pluses are that the tv was smart so you could log into Netflix, they didn't charge for parking and they provided both shampoo and conditioner. Good deal for the price.
