Hotels near Smoking Cannon Brewery, Ramona

Just an average hotel. It's clean, but tired. Beds are fine, bathrooms are fine, and pool is fine. You'll sleep fine here, but I probably wouldn't return to it and would rather try a Holiday Inn Express or Best Western instead. Pool - It looked ok, but pretty cold (checked in Feb). The hot tub is more of a warm tub. If I had small kids, I bet they'd take a quick dip in the 77-78 degree larger pool and then hang out in the hot tub. Breakfast - Seems like the standard fare of eggs from a mix, muffins, bagels, and the oh so favorite of absolutely no one, red delicious apples. Why are those at every single hotel free breakfast. Would have loved to have seen something special or different at this hotel. We ended up going out to somewhere else for breakfast. Rooms - Clean, but kind of out dated. Bathroom had a bit of mold in the calking, but overall it was fine. Internet - I'm typing this review on the provided free internet. I'm getting 3Mbit down and 4Mbit up so not exactly the fastest, but it will let you type up TripAdvisor reviews. Google Maps struggles to draw directions and FaceTime doesn't work that well. Might be a variety of reasons so your milage may vary. Parking - By far my biggest complaint. There is tons of parking everywhere. I don't know how anyone would get here unless they had a car. They charge $5 per night to park at the hotel. There is no value add here except what feels like a money grab. I suppose you could park at a nearby business park, but parking at the hotel is probably your best bet. Why not just wrap the charge into the room rate? They don't provide any sort of added security and there's no shortage of spots available.

Was pleasantly surprised by the facility, was clean and neat. Didn't know that I would have a microwave and refrigerator, let alone an iron and ironing board. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. Liquor store and gas station convenient store in walking distance. Right next door is the Burger Construction Company, a must stop visit. The food is very good and the service was excellent.

Location was great. Staff very friendly & helpful. We appreciated all the guidance Nancy the manager gave us on local eateries & activities in the area. Room was clean & the housekeeping was very accommodating with our requests. Locally centered with multiple choices for dining. We highly recommend this hotel & will stay here again!

Arrived very late was given a handicapped room that was also a connecting room with the understanding we would be moved to a different room the following day. The issue is the connecting room is we could clearly hear the tv and conversations of the guests next door. Good news the GM called late morning gave me new room number which he said had a city view. Once I appeared at the front desk I was given a different room number than what I was told over the phone which gave me pause… the view is more of the parking lot than the city… why the change? All of a sudden there were a limited number of rooms with queen beds and nothing else was available. The whole experience makes me uncomfortable and disappointed. We will be staying for 14 nights which is longer than what the average stay is I am sure. So much for being a valued member. I wish I could attach a photo of the bedroom wall with an poor patch and paint job on the wall…

Very American family-style hotel, the first floor lobby is very warmly furnished. The room is like other chain hotels. We booked two large beds. The breakfast is very simple American style, parking is no problem, the hotel is right next to the highway. It’s good to stay for one night.

This was the perfect place for resting and relaxing and getting away from all of the stress of every day lift. The food was delicious and healthy. The room was clean and had a great view of the mountains and lake. If you’re looking to stay off the grid for inner healing, this is the perfect place. I am definitely going for another visit.

I've stayed at this hotel twice now for a relaxing staycation. When it comes to my actual hotel room, it's a good room. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean. Really nothing bad to say about the room. The one thing I didn't like about staying here is the food/restaurant options. You can't bring your own food into the hotel so you have to use their restaurants. While the food was decent at the grill area, I hated that I had to travel from my room all the way to the grill for my meals and then bring it back to my room. I didn't feel like having all my meals at the sit down restaurants. Those meals are pricier. I believe they have a food court but that wasn't open yet. So for now that is my con. Having to get food to eat. I also used their fitness center and it was nice. Some good decent cardio machines and weights to do a good workout. Place was great to have a good workout. As for their spa ritual, i loved LOVED when I got a mani/pedi and a massage. The massage was fairly relaxing but it was my pedicure that I loved. The staff member took her time and made it comfortable and relaxing. One of the best pedicures I've had in a very long time. I would HIGHLY recommend coming to the spa. Oh, I also got to use the pool. Food is more expensive here. Place can get a bit crowded so come early to get a good spot. As my title says... Staycation! If you're a San Diego local then I would suggest this place for a nice weekend getaway.

I have visited this hotel every year since it opened to be close to my grandchildren age 5 and 6 who love it. They call it the ”Robot Hotel” because there is an actual robot that delivers goodies. Every visit has been terrific, but this was a more complicated visit, and the entire staff was just remarkable in how they rose to the occasion each time I needed help with a number of issues with visitors, office materials, my mobile phone software, dinner plates and utensils for lots of company. The staff gave 200 percent, and as a senior traveler it made my life so much easier. Matt Sater has concocted the perfect recipe for the warmest hospitality I have ever experienced in my travels. Melissa should be training everyone at Marriot on how to provide the most top notch customer service operating the front desk. Her smile is infectious, and her truly sincere approach cushions the anxiety many older travelers have. Itzel helped enormously when I entertained at the pool or patio and was always friendly. My grandchildren especially enjoyed the hugs and conversations with Isabel who laid out a beautiful breakfast and as busy as she was found time to joke with them. The cleaning staff delivered spotless accomodations. This hotel was truly a peaceful harbor that made you feel cared for in a tumultuous sea. Highly recommend. Elaine Darman Levitt
