Studio 6 Suites San Ysidro, CA – San Diego South Bay

Truly the worst ever stay. The first thing you need to know about this area is that there is a sewage crisis going on for months near the Mexican border: The border and the Tijuana River are less than a half mile away, their sewage treatment plant is broken down, so all the sewage and chemicals from Tijuana is flowing into the river and across the border. San Ysidro, Chula Vista, and Imperial Beach all smell like raw sewage, 24 hours a day right now. Imperial Beach is currently closed due to the sewage flowing into the ocean nearby. Don't make the same mistake I did, if you are coming to San Diego, stay as far north as possible, and do not go near the border. When you come out of your hotel in the morning, you car will be covered in dew that is brown colored due to the sewage particles in the air. This situation is a major news story in San Diego, look it up before traveling. As far as this hotel in particular, it's hard to imaging that Motel 6/Studio 6 would want its name associated with this unholy mess. Please see my photos. The door has been bashed in by police or gangs so many times that it no longer fits on the frame, allowing light, sounds, and sewage smells/particles to easily pass thru, contaminating everything in the room. The door security lock is cracked. The falsely advertised laundry consists of 2 dryers and 1 washer with "out of service" signs. The one working washing machine is filthy. My towels & sheets were mostly soiled looking. The floor is a type of tile which does not appear to ever have been mopped or cleaned at all. The bedspread had holes burned in it. The refrigerator was wet inside and had mosquitos in it. The coffee maker was also full of old water. The television has lines all across the screen. On our last night, there was a guy right outside our door installing window tint in his car (??!!) until 2:30 in the morning, blasting his radio, using power tools, and loudly talking on his phone. Since our door doesn't seal (as noted) we could not escape every sound, and of course, the sewage smell coming in. I don't even think this guy was a hotel guest, just someone in the neighborhood who new he could do whatever he wanted on the property until as late as he wanted. Don't book this hotel! Avoid San Ysidro, Chula Vista and Imperial Beach until the sewage crisis is over !!

I love it because it’s so close to Mexico border

Awful Awful
