This is a lovely family owned and serviced little hotel/motel. Guests of all walks of life are treated well and the place is kept very clean. Some of the fixtures are outdated or need replacement, but the bed was really comfortable and my room was clean and fresh.
This is one of the nicer low priced accommodations in Chula Vista. And the price is quite competitive with other hotels in the area.
The neighborhood is urban ish and very walkable with interesting stores and restaurants all along the main street.

Only $20 deposit. And at $100 a night you can get a suite with 2 actual rooms and a fridge with an actual freezer. Plenty of room. No grass or anything to take a dog potty.

Everybody makes too too much noise, guests yelling each other building to building, not a designated parking spot for your room, hotel personnel do not keep the outside areas quiet and peaceful, the building looks very old and, the bed makes a lot of noise as well.
First and last time coming to this place

The hotel was alright. Good price and everything seems nice. Room service was nice too.
Our refrigerator wasn’t working though and had some old liquid (probably oil) in it. Bathroom also was a bit dirty with unexplainable stains 9n the curtain and a bit on the wall.
Blankets are thin but not an issue as long as you use the heater for cold nights.
Overall a "you get what you paid for" thing, but could use a bit of a paint job.

Even though there was a language barrier everyone was Hospitable. The grounds need to be maintained better because there was loud cracks in the concrete and that could be a health hazard as far as falling.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. However some of the customers were very rude, selfish and played music very loud and we had to request for management to request to lower the volume. The bedding was not very comfortable either.
