106 is a terrible room. The hotel didn't seem to be full; there were parking spaces available and not a lot of lights on in the rooms. But somehow we got put in the last room down a long dark alley, opening up onto the parking lot and dumpsters - and our luck? The trash truck arrived at 7am.
We had to sign a long list of weirdly specific but common sense rules just to get our keys - and one of them was quiet hours from 9pm to 9am. Yet our location meant that anyone who was staying in the hotel (which included a couple families with children) tumbled down our alley, shouting in front of our room and banging the alley door to their car from about 7am until we gave up and left at 9.
The mattress was old and saggy, but aside from the elevated price, noise and alley factor, the motel was fine. Not a - haven - by any stretch, but otherwise fine.
A wretched experience. We stay overnight on weekdays quite frequently in SD, and we usually choose the nearby small network of motels owned by PB Surf, which are cheaper and similar in quality. We thought we'd try somewhere new - what a mistake.
