Quick Stop
Nice, comfortable hotel for a one night stay. The room was clean. The plumbing may be old as our bathroom smelled bad. Convenient location.

Clean and comfy in San Ma
This hotel is super clean and convenient if you need a night's stay around San Marcos or Carlsbad. The check in and customer service were great. It's a really good value if you need a place to stay for the night.

After trying many other reasonably priced hotels in the area, we found this Days Inn location. We have stayed here periodically when in the area for over a year and it continues to be a good value, clean, quiet and just what we need.

Decent enough, large room
Practically on the offramp, but we didnt hear the traffic. The couch and suite offered was appreciated as a larger family. Breakfast was limited, but we knew that going into it. Packaged danishes. We didnt use anything but the beds, there less than 12 hours

Meh.
The location was convenient. The staff were helpful and courteous. The room was worn out and the plumbing was sketchy. We had our dog with us, so maybe they give less than ideal rooms to pet guests with pets.

Simply my observation
Although I prefer to leave positive comments, I will start by saying room was clean, my observation would be that rooms need renovation upkeep for that extra comfort expectation. Small mosquitos flying in room all days there was uncomfortable. Location was ideal, many restaurants around.

I just needed a place to sleep for a night and this was just fine. It’s not as nice as a high end hotel, but it’s at least half the price. I didn’t want or expect a high end hotel, but this one was plenty good for the price

Nosy freeway corner lot but easy to find
The beds were changed daily and clean, however, promised breakfast was name only.
It consisted of basic coffee (cream & sugar were out by 6:30). Sometimes there were no coffee as you can notice there were some people with large thermos filling it. The only little pastries they had were irritatingly wrapped in so many layers of wrappers. Hm...
