This place is excellent, they really go the extra mile as soon as you walk in the door. Rooms are clean and mattress real comfortable. The evening clerk even printed my boarding passes for free. I also had free wi-fi. Nice heated pool. Over all I had a great time, Cant wait to come back. more

This place looked a little sketchy and had few amenities, but when you arrive at 2:30 AM (late flight) and leave at 6:30 AM for some diving (with nearby shop - Dive California) then it serves its purpose. A small but clean room to crash in for a few hours. Very close to the airport which is nice when your... more

I have to say that this Hotel was one of the Best Hotels that me and my family have ever stayed at. The price was reasonable for the weekend and for all of the extra perks that it had to offer. We asked for directions to Sea World and the morning clerk was so helpful and even printed out our... more

While this hotel definitely has some strenghs, there are some significant disadvantages. Weighing one against the other, we cannot recommend this property. First, the positives. The front desk crew is terrific. Want recommendations for restaurants? No problem. Need the wireless computer system rebooted? Sure thing. Looking for directions to the Gaslamp District? Thats' easy. These guys are friendly and courteous... more

My wife and I had never traveled to San Diego before, so we wanted a place close to the downtown area that also offered some walking opportunities and wasn' t too expensive. We trusted in Trip Advisor ratings, and took a chance on the Vagabond Inn despite some negative reviews. The Vagabond Inn is a little run down but generally... more

I stayed at the Vagabond Inn for four nights during November.The place is situated right next to Point Loma,an excellent location for fishermen who are heading out on the long range fleet,which I was. Taxi fare was eight dollars from the airport. The staff were polite and very helpful,which,after a trip of sixteen hours from the UK was appreciated. The... more

This is a small hotel but I must say it did live up to the positive reviews I read before we left. The price was kind of high but a lot lower than other places in San Diego. It is located very close to Shelter Island -- you can walk there and both Ocean beach and Point Loma are a... more

Do not stay here!!!! We booked at this location during our move to San Diego from out of state. Since we were moving with our two cats, we needed a pet friendly place to stay. We chose the Vagabond Inn Point Loma. Upon our arrival, we received a rude greeting and it only continued from there. When we asked a... more

The hotel was located near a workshop I was attending so, convenience was this place's saving grace. I found that the staff was helpful and friendly although when I called the hotel to ask if a camera had been found in my room, the house keeping staff answered the phone with, "what?!" and then proceded to hang up on me... more

I tried to stay in this motel with my wife and my coworker and his wife. We checked in and explored the area a bit. When we came back we realized how bad the rooms were. Our bathroom had a tub with cracks in it that seemed to seep water through the floor. It almost looked like soggy particle board.... more

As a new manager at this location, I certainly understand the complaints of needing renovations to the property. I am happy to report that we are doing total renovations to all guest rooms at this time. The renovation of the rooms should be complete by the first of June, 2006. Some rooms are already up and ready for occupancy and...
