The manager owner Danny is the most unprofessional person I have met. He treats guest as we owe him , and it's a privilege to be there. Do not rent from this place if you want this type of treatment . All other staff are nice and pleasant.

First thing the hotel was clean and room smelled fresh and pleasant. The furniture looked new and was comfortable, making the room feel modern and welcoming.The only issue I noticed was that there were cigarette butts in the hallways. The staff was outstanding, especially Ramsy, the night desk person who helped me to check-in .He was incredibly kind, professional, and helpful throughout my stay. I highly recommend Rancho San Diego Inn & Suites to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable place with exceptional staff. I would definitely stay here again!

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was quiet, and very clean. The door sticks so badly you need to really push hard to get it to open or close. The bathroom door doesn't close properly and provides no privacy. The bed was supposed to be a queen but was a full, there were no blankets. After checking in and sitting in the room a staff member walked in unannounced looked around and left. The shower valve was so stuck when I called the front desk the clerk said "pull super hard". I had to turn it on and off for my wife. The Jacuzzi had caution tape around it and was empty and appeared to be out of order for a long time. I do not recommend this place.

Rooms are very clean stuff very helpful concierge did answer every question but the hotel was overpriced. There was a problem with elevator every single day of our stay we missed to dinner reservation because of elevator. There was incident. One of the guests stuck in the elevator over two hours. It was panic with having seniors with us, and there is no stairs to use in instead of elevator. !!!!

Hotel conditions and surrounding area were not family friendly. Lots of drug use/homeless on stairwell and etc. We did not feel safe enough to check in. Refunds were not offered so we just took it as a loss.
