Got to the property and didn't end up staying here. NOT like the photos. It is very run down. The room stunk horribly. There were several rooms with loud music and partying going on. Seems like people were living in the rooms. Girl at the desk could not concentrate. Kept closing her eyes and typed very slooowwlly. Took almost thirty minutes just to check in. Took one look at our room and went right back to the front desk and asked for a refund.

Easy access to the beach. Shout out to Patrick for my room upgrade. Dining room is clean and Staffs always restocking. Shower head flows so tight, needs opening flow up a little bit. Came back again, will return and would gladly recommend this place.

The room was very nice, quiet, and I felt safe. The pool/hot tub was dirty. But an easy fix before I got in. The staff were helpful and nice. The area next to the hotel was sketchy , dirty and there were unhoused roaming the area. At night it made me nervous. Prices were affordable and the walk to the bay was easy over the highway. Breakfast was good and staff kept the area clean and replenished food promptly. If you’re looking for somewhere reasonable and clean, this is the place.

The room was musky when entering from no air circulation but once i had air on it was fine. Beds were comfy, no water issues. Breakfast was bare on weekdays. Only had eggs and meat on weekends(includes fri). My only issue was it wasnt vacuumed well found a pretzel under the sink

It was relatively good with respect to the price. They have cleaning on request and I didn't ask for it since I was there just for 2 days. The breakfast was average. There are enough parking space.

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.
