Javier, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff was great. Just needed a no frills place to lay my head for the night. That's what I got. A good, average hotel room at a decent price.

You get what you pay for
The room was ok except the work didn’t work inside the room (tried multiple devices). The staff said they would look into it but nothing happened as far as I could tell. Also they charged me like 10 more dollars than my reservation that was supposed to already include all the fees.

2/10 Poor

HORRIBLE
Room smelled old. I was charged a $10 cleaning fee extra I wasn't aware of. TV didn't work. Shower broken. This place should be demolished. Seemed like a place for prostitutes and drug attics. I wouldn't recommend this place to dead people.

So there was a bunch of twacky wacky crazies around there,tht lived there. When i would go out on the alcony to smoke,i ft lime i was being watched,and felt like it was unsafe. People stay up all night.the last night we stayed there, we woke up in the morning to people fighting and a window got broken

Was alright. All the outlets were loose. Smelt like old people. A lot of homeless people outside just chilling.
Cameron, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Homeless men on the stairs. Could be good if this territory was close from not customers))
????????, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is unique with a certain charm that you don't find with larger hotel chains.This hidden gem has more of a mom and pop feel to it. I like places like this, where the rooms have more of a " cottage feel" rather than every room looking the same. We hen your in the mood to stay somewhere more off the beaten path, choose The Franscian.
Jacqueline, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I was very impressed with the gentleman that checked me in at the front desk. He was friendly and very helpful, much nicer than other front desk greeters I have come across in North County hotels.
