Rodeway Inn Encinitas North

8/10 Good
"The hotel is being remodeled and the remodeled rooms are very nice with a very useful kitchenette. Housekeeping is very minimal though. They remove trash and change towels. They do not clean bathroom or sweep the floor. When asked at the front desk they replied they only do it upon request because guests complain if they move personal items. They run out of clean bed sheets one day. Found ants in the room and their solution was to give us an ant trap, which they never cleaned the next day. Front desk staff very unhelpful and unprofessional. Rates high. Great location though and they get away charging these rates providing minimum service. Not even coffee."

"We loved our time at the Omni La Costa. Room was clean, pool was a lot of fun for the kids. We all enjoyed the food and drinks at the pool. Check in was later than expected / advertised (almost an hour and a half after advertised, and we had to check in multiple times on if the room was ready). We’ll absolutely return."
