TRAVELODGE SAN DIEGO MISSION V

There is nothing significant that is walking distance from the hotel like food or groceries. The hotel itself was in good condition, and the breakfast was a normal Holiday Inn Express with scrambled eggs, a meat, pancakes and oatmeal, plus breads and simple drinks. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. There is a pool that was heavily used, and a large lobby that serves as the breakfast area too. Check in was horrible. The clerk named Arpita was difficult from the start and made me feel like a criminal. The person with me was laughing after check in and asked “what was up with her??” Not the right personality for a person dealing with guests. As a long time Diamond member, I don’t remember ever a check in that was as confrontational as this one. I would avoid staying here again just based on the employee attitude.

This is our 4th stay at this hotel. We have always had a lovely time, but we’re taken aback by the complete elimination of coffee machine, coffee, and cups from the room. It sounds so minor until you are fully ready for bed, no bra, pajamas on, go to take evening medication and realize the entire room has no cup. Never have I been in even the cheapest roadside motel and not had a cup available for brushing my teeth or taking my meds. Their greedy corporate-centric effort to save a buck on coffee reflects poorly on the experience as a whole. Yes, cups are available in the lobby, but getting dressed and going down myself to get a cup was not what I wanted to do at 11pm. I’m so sick of corporations charging more and offering less.

We visit San Diego at least 2 times a year my wife and kids love staying here everytime they love the seclude hotel nice and calm vibe that was until we visited for Thanksgiving 2025 and checked out 12/2 we came in for WWE event at Petco park. We paid over 975 bucks and we had a noisey upstairs person. I called the front office and was told they were checking out that day and it would end next time I called they told me they would tell the manager. Never was I offered to be moved. Then I was questioned and followed about breakfast because they thought I wasn’t staying there. $24 bucks for parking a night. I paid $120 bucks in parking. I’m having a San Diego trip in August 2026 and I need a place to stay and this place might of lost its place as my go to. Very dissapointing stay.
