Top Escondido Hotel Reviews

Pleasant Inn

Pleasant Inn

8/10 Good
"The room was spotless and quite big, with a separate table for two as well as a desk. The bed and pillows were comfy. Staff at check in were lovely. This is a basic motel, with no pool, gym, or vending machines, at least that I found. But things were very clean, the floor was not carpeted (so clean), and very comfortable, with free parking. About 10-15 minutes drive from UCSD, so a good option when hotels nearby are booked or over priced. Walmarts, 99 Ranch, and Starbucks are less than a mile away though driving is recommended as traffic moves quickly."
