I didn't like that room was not as it was online. Beds made a lot of noise. The bottom of mattress was all metal so any movement it would make noise. My 5 yr old even complained of the noise. I wouldn't go back. Not a good experience .

Me-Time Getaway/Stay-cation

At check-in, the gentleman was delightful. My room was very modern & stylish, comfortable, clean, and fully equipped with microwave, fridge/freezer, iron, lots of space to put personal belongings, nice work area, nice eating table area with chairs, plenty of outlets with USB ports. They have great channels and nice big TV, great working AC. Most of all I felt safe. Great location near the freeway and main drags. Their coffee in the morning in their lobby is good & strong and tastes great. I highly recommend Escondido Lodge. I will definitely be returning.
