The clerk lied to me as I'm watching the fees get deducted from my account via text message on my cellphone, that the card was not good. And I still need to pay the deposit fee and some other fees. Still lying...When asked if I can get a receipt she said there is no receipt. Still lying....When asked if I could have a full refund she said I'll have to go through a third party. However, the fact that I was not born yesterday and I just wake up looking this way; young, pretty and dumb,... And have been renting hotel rooms everyday for the last few years. Mistakes happen. But I'll bet my bank statements and my attorney can prove otherwise. I'll be back after the holidays ready to bake that ham. Seasons greetings everyone!!....

Nothing unique about The Atwood. A couple of positives, the front desk staff was friendly enough and they don’t charge for parking which was well lit, ok three things. Now, the room itself wasn’t bad, very plain. Our door wasn’t completely sealed because you could see light all around the door. A place that obviously remodeled in the past few years, could have put more thought into their bathroom. The shower curtain bar was slanted as if it was put up in haste. The water valve was extremely hard to pull out and start the water for a shower which I discovered is low flow but then again, it’s California with water problems. House keeping was every other day but if you needed more towels you had to go to the front desk for a refill of towels. House keeping did a good job when it was our turn to have to e room cleaned. One night the police had to show up for a disturbance. This disturbance involved a women who was staying in her car while her children and whom ever else was staying in the room. Don’t ask, it was just a weird situation I didnt want to get involved. This hotel at best is a one night stay. The hot tub was the highlight of this place. The pool was was extremely cold but then again it was November, lol. Honestly I will never stay here again or at another hotel circle hotel. For a four night stay the price was reasonable but, never again. You get what you pay for. Never again for my San Diego visits.
