I had a wonderful stay at Harvey's Motel.
I was in San Diego visiting a friend and needed an inexpensive place to stay closeby. Often the smaller budget/no-frills roadside motels can be "sketchy," but Harvey's is definitely an exception.
The front desk staff was friendly and welcoming and even greeted me by name. The on-site parking lot was tidy and well-lit with plenty of spaces.
I stayed in an upstairs "deluxe" room. Keeping in mind this is a budget/no frills motel, I was pleasantly surprised to find the room bright, clean and spacious. Everything was in excellent working order, from the lights ...to the TV, ...to the mini fridge and microwave ...and most importantly the AC!
All the light switches were intuitively placed. Electrical sockets were available right above the nightstands on each side of the bed.
I'm guessing the bathroom was recently renovated because the toilet and shower both looked new.
As mentioned, this is a no-frills property, so they don't provide fancy soap or shampoo. And while the towels and linens were very clean, they're basic hotel stock.
There are several great restaurants within walking distance. Despite being located right on a busy boulevard, the motel is relatively calm and quiet.
I would definitely stay there again!
