This is a great Motel located in the downtown of San Diego, only 5 to 10 minutes walk to every interest point. Super clean, confortable, fully equipped. Staff is absolutely professional and very kind. I definitely suggest this hotel. More

As always drunk people in downtown San Diego kept me from sleeping but to top it off around 3 am we had to leave the room because bed bugs were crawling on the bed and walls. I checked the room before we settled in and saw no signs, I am scarred to stay in any room now. More

We are very sorry to hear that your stay was something less than ideal. As for your noise complaint, although we have every guest sign an acknowledgment of our "quiet hours", incidents may still occur, or the noise may have come from an adjacent property. Of far more concern is your complaint about bed bugs. We would have been happy... More

I have stayed at many Days Inn and this one to say the least was not what I had come to expect. We are staying for a week and I am serious about looking for a different place to stay. We could not connect to the FREE Wi-Fi, bulbs were burned out in the lights, we had to pay a... More

We certainly do.apologize that your stay did not meet your expectations, nor ours. Your review does not state whether you brought these issues to our attention, as we would have made every effort to correct both the wi-fi connectivity and the burned out light bulbs. As for our location, we are only two blocks from a trolley stop, and walking... More

My husband and I stayed for just one night and we knew this hotel was going to be old. We were not excepting much. What I was amazed to see was the personal FREE things in our room.

I recently stayed at the Days Inn on Ash Street in San Diego, room 414 to be exact. As soon as I got into the room I sat down on a chair next to the round table and it nearly crumbled into pieces. The outlets are completely worn out and will not hold the prongs properly. The power went out... More
