This property is a wonderful location for the price, was quiet and great proximity to Mission Bay, Mission Beach, Pacific Beach and walkable to a fantastic restaurant called The Pub. I was lucky to catch some of the fireworks from SeaWorld close by too! My only request about the room is it would be good if I found extra blankets to use; the linens and blanket on the bed weren't quite enough to keep me warm. Luckily I had two beds in the room so I could use extra blankets from the bed next to mine.

I was very happy with this property. The room was very large. We were given a cot which helped ease the issue of children sleeping together. The breakfasts were great. Cold cereal, cheese omelets, muffins, waffles, granola bars, juice machine, apples and bananas, sausage and french toast. I would diffently stay at this property again.

We were participating in the SoCal Ragnar and needed a cheap centrally located hotel. Mission Bay Inn was perfect. The rooms were very spacious and clean. Both vans were able to come back to the rooms after each leg to shower and nap- which was ideal!

First room was moldy and dirty - asked for a different room. Second room was worse. Bugs, dirt, broken furniture. Smelled terribly of mildew. Broken elevator with wires sticking out. Didn’t even sit down - booked a different hotel and wasn’t even able to cancel the remaining nights.

The price for the area was OK but its not as nice of area as it apeared to be. The check in time at 3 p.m. and check out at noon only gives you 21 hours, it seems that when you rent a room you should get it for 24 hours. Other than that it meet our needs.

Very basic motel. Free breakfast is good, but there is no change of food on every morning. I had new-made waffles and boiled eggs, juice and milk. Hot Coffee is provided 24h in the breakfast room. The water pressure is great in the shower, but you may need to get more shampoo from front desk. Parking lot is huge, staff is friendly.

Had to switch room 3 times: fridge didn’t function, stains on mattress, electricity didn’t work, saw blood clots and diarrhea on stair case like a murder scene. Notified workers but workers just laughed and pointed over to another worker to go clean it up. Had to go get a new room card everytime I return to my room. Bit sketchy.

Not recommending this hotel....maybe an in-out for one night. We were put in the best room on the main floor...OMG! Old, run down, plugged bathtub, gross bathroom cam with a bug, TV had NO volume....scary place. However the check in staff, Jessie, and the breakfast staff were amazing and very helpful.

Very nice stay! The rooms are really quiet, if you are a light sleeper (I am)! Parking is plentiful and free. We felt very safe day and night. Staff were friendly and helpful. The property could use some TLC, but that's reflected in the price. Beds were comfy.

Seemed to be 10-15 minute drive to all major attractions in SD. Overall nice location to lay your head for the evening. We felt safe and relaxed after a long day of exploring all San Diego County has to offer. A perk was free parking and hot breakfast on the weekends. Our kids enjoyed waffles throughout the weekdays too. Unfortunately, some patrons seemed to stuff their pockets full of the “free” breakfast, leaving the staff to keep putting out more of the continental items for the rest of the patrons who were there to eat. Overall, a nice experience.

When we arrived to check in to our 2 queen bed reserved room, our room had been switched to a different room. It was a king bed room with a pull out couch, which we didn’t know until we walked into the room. We assumed it would be the same type of room. Upon entering the cleanliness of the room was not good. Makeup on the pillow cases, dirty tables, mold on the ceiling, and holes in the decorative pillows were among some of our noticing. We had no choice but stay there for the night due to it being late and no other rooms available. To top it off in the morning the shower would not turn on! The next day they did move us to a different room which was cleaner. The hotel is outdated and some rooms should not be allowed to be used for guests until updated. The breakfast was great.
