"We had a great stay! The hotel was clean, the accommodations were comfortable, and it was perfect for our family. It shares a courtyard with the Holiday Inn, where the kids had plenty to do: Connect Four, darts, miniature golf, and even a basketball they could check out. The pool was clean and inviting, and the bar and restaurant were open in the evenings from 5 to 10 p.m. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!"

Best Western Escondido Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is outdated. The rooms were very clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. It’s very good situated for the i15 freeway. The reason I gave it that star rating was because there is bad odour in the hotel. Other than the smell i was reasonably happy with my one night stay."

Motel 6 Escondido, CA

10/10 Excellent

"My stay was for two days. The room for the first day was adequate but I needed amenities. I asked the desk manager for a different room. She was very nice and accomodating to my needs."
