It was okay, but far from great
I remembered Escondido being nicer, but apparently things aren’t as nice as they used to be. The hotel is pretty run-down and needs some upgrades, especially to the exterior. The room was clean and neat, but the furnishings were a bit rickety and dated. The staff was very friendly, but the free breakfast was very limited (cereal and toast/bagels, coffee and juice). You get what you pay for here and not much else.
Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks
If you see your hotel as mainly a place to shower and sleep and not much else, this may be a good place for you. Probably not the best place for kids.

Not worth it
Beds were hard as a rock, room had a musty/smoky smell even though it was a "non-smoking" room. Shower head was at nose-level (and I’m only 5’8"). They only give you 2 towels and 1 washcloth. Continental breakfast was a couple of cereals, a few english muffins and some bread, coffee was like water. Do yourself a favor and spend a few more bucks for something nicer. Only plus was that it had a fridge and microwave.
