It was neat, clean, well-equipped and at a good location. Cannot tell you how friendly and super supportive the staff was. They realized that I had small kids with me. I went from Canada and I had no cash in US $$. I had to do laundry. The staff gave me cash for 2 loads without charging anything. Then I asked for milk at night for my baby and they provided me with 2 boxes of milk. Then, while I was leaving, they offered us juices as it was hot enough. Really loved such generosity.

This hotel is so beautiful, so clean and nice. The whole staff is so professional and pleasant, very helpful and friendly. Daniel at the front desk deserves an special mention. The breakfast is great, we have been staying there for several years. If you have a big family I recommend you these suites, you can fit up to 8 people.

We spent most of the time in San Marcos.

We spent most of the time in San Marcos. Found a wonderful Italian restaurant for dinner called Nucci's on Melrose in Vista. Went back the next day for lunch. Weather is always nice there. Had a small group morning cruise through boat rental on Lake San Marcos. Pilot yourself boat was easy. Two hours of beautify scenery watching the ducks while enjoying the quiet. Everyone friendly from staff to other boaters. Went to Quail Gardens in Escondido for holiday after dark light walk, starts at 4 pm. Enjoyed fine dining at a San Bernardo restaurant named Carvers. Open for dinners only. Reservations are a must.

Vista, CA is becoming an interesting place to visit.

Vista, CA is becoming an interesting place to visit. We have family in the area and always find new places to enjoy together. An amazing guitar player is at Bleching Beaver on Wed evening 6 to 8pm. The outside area is a place to relax with family and friends. Sunday evenings there is country and western dancing at a place on Main Street. Smitty's offers Karaoke many nights of the week-it has been a staple in Vista for 22 years. Best Time Pizza is another great meeting place. Handel's ice cream also has a line that moves fast. We enjoy exploring Vista and keep finding new places.

The apartment was perfect and had room for my group.

The apartment was perfect and had room for my group. Location seems safe. Not a great view, but the price is good and accomodations comfortable. Beds were pretty good and the couch was ok. A tad small, but it is an apartment so I expected that. I would definitely stay again.

Vista has a big Variety of places to eat.

Vista has a big Variety of places to eat. Not a far drive to the beaches, Oceanside Pier and Oceanside Harbor. Also a good proximity to hospitals. Traffic becomes congested during morning and afternoon with people going to and from work I suppose. Many Breweries in the area. Walking distance to IHOP.

Affordability should not equal unease, but it’s how we felt.

Affordability should not equal unease, but it’s how we felt. It prompted us to cut our stay even shorter, as a matter of fact. I didn’t expect, nor require, fancy accommodations, but this was not family friendly. Like I said, if you’re a single male, a brief stay should be alright. I won’t return nor can I recommend.
