Could not easily get to the hotel due to a mass amount of cars in line for various fast food places. Also lot of people parked in the hotel parking lot hanging out in their cars and truck partying late into the night. Also ac unit in room was really loud rattling sounds and made it hard to sleep.

**Review for Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites San Diego-Escondido, an IHG Hotel** I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites San Diego-Escondido, and unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. The hotel appears rundown, and the air conditioning in our room was not functioning properly, making our stay uncomfortable. On a positive note, the location is convenient and situated in a good area, which made accessing nearby restaurants and amenities quite easy.
