Rodeway Inn Fallbrook Downtown

Bed springs were very loud.

Soft pillows. Nice landscaping.

Noisy location. Room was painted sloppy. Broken toilet seat. Badly chipped paint around night stand.

The view

Nothing, the whole experience was horrific.

Absolutely horrible experience. I accidentally put my Google Voice number on the reservation, and the night manager called it several times. When I arrived around 10:40pm, he immediately became aggressive, accusing me of lying and berating me for several minutes before refusing to check me in. When I asked for a refund, he refused—claiming a room was ready but still wouldn’t check me in. After I snapped and muttered an insult out of frustration, he slammed the window in my face. Moments later, my partner arrived, and the tone completely changed. The manager suddenly wanted to explain himself to the man, trying to justify his treatment of me. My partner made it clear that he would either refund us or check us in, but that I would stay in the car because I was rightfully upset. The manager kept trying to force me to come up to the window in person, but my partner refused to allow that. When we did get the room, it was filthy: cigarette burns in the comforter, burnt tub and bathmat (possibly from drug use), holes in the curtains, others taped together with electrical tape. I took photos. The place is clearly a run-down drug den and a last resort. I will never return. The manager’s misogynistic behavior was disgusting, and the condition of the room was unsafe.

Location was close to the event I was attending.

They said I needed to pay a 100.00 deposit in case I damaged the room. The bed was old and worn, not comfortable at all. I took pictures of damage in the room in case I needed to defend myself against being charged for damage present when I checked in.
