If you prefer the traditional family-run motel over those of a corporate chain, Harvey’s is a good choice. We asked for and got a ground-floor room, which was a pretty easy goal since we appeared to be the only paying customers that night. The motel exterior seemed nicely maintained, the room was clean as was the bathroom. Both were typical for motels of this age—small but just fine for the two of us. The room AC was effective and not too loud, though it’s only a couple of feet away from the bed. With the window closed there was almost no noise from the street.

The refrigerator’s freezer section had a large buildup of ice, the TV remote control didn’t do a very good job of controlling the TV.

It was a spacious room with everything I needed. The staff were friendly and the location had shops nearby. In spite of it being on a very busy road it was very quiet. It was also on a bus route and the trolley station was nearby.

The ice machine needed quarters to use. It wasn't so much paying for it as having no control over how much ice I got. Also the hair drier cord didn't reach the power outlet (I had brought my own) and the microwave was noisy.

I love the location! College East is a seriously underrated area of San Diego. I love that there at least 7 restaurants within walking distance (that I can think of!), as well as several convenience stores and low key shopping. I also think the building has a good layout. The neighborhood seems to be middle/lower middle class, everything about this place and its surroundings make me think of the 70’s, and I’m a gen Z.

There was a hole in the bathroom ceiling, though I do see plaster/drywall guys working on the property when I stay here.

The size of the room was decent, I requested extra pillows and they brought them up . Everything was tidy including the refrigerator and microwave. They care about there guest. Front desk lady very nice.

I prefer a softer bed it was pretty firm and high up, but my boyfriend thought it was quite nice overall it was worth the price i would go back again

Everything was fine. This is a family run property and they are available. No complaints here. Have used it before. I just needed a place for a few days. Some food places within walking distance. Markets down a bit further down the street along with banks. Access to I-8 close by so this is a convenient place for the budge minded.

Good proximity to SDSU. Fridge and microwave allowed me to have food in the very early AM. Room is clean and well kept up. Good proximity to convenience stores for snacks and water. Park your car just outside your door.

Fridge motor is a little loud keeping me up at night. Pillows are too big/high.

Cozy as hell. Clean and comfortable. Late-night front desk concierge Priya was friendly, efficient, and quite lovely

Wifi was spotty. Mattress was pretty hard, but it wasn’t uncomfortable or anything.

I stayed 4 days and no problems. The staff was great. The bedding was a little outdated and bed was hard, but other than that, there were no problems. The place was clean and quiet. The rooms have a microwave and fridge. I would definitely stay there again.

The bedding was a little outdated and the bed was very hard.

The manager Victor was very friendly an tried his best to accommodate are stay here..He made sure we were comfortable. I Would recommend this motel if your looking for a relaxing area.

I feel that you need to upgrade or get new towels.

The bed was very comfy , the bathroom was very clean as well as the room. The location was what I was looking for .

It needs lower pillows . Couldn’t use the ones on the bed , they were very high .
