Holiday Inn Oceanside Camp Pendleton Area

Do NOT stay here. Upon our arrival, there were multiple gentlemen sitting in random cars in the parking lot. One was holding his phone up as though he was taking a picture or video. I didn't noticed but my husband did. As you enter the building, there's a sign on the front door regarding sex trafficking. My husband mentioned the concern to Fati at the front desk who seemed to care less about the concerns or safety of guests. She said she would notify "security" but this was another employee was took a leisurely stroll around the parking lot without doing or saying anything to the gentlemen in the cars.

The rooms have controlled air settings that will not allow you to set the unit below 70 degrees. I ended up turning the fan on high to keep air movement in the room. Housekeeping didn't attend to our room once during our 4 night stay. I had to put trash in bags and set them outside the room to ensure it was picked up everyday. We had to request new towels (which feel like sandpaper) several times from Fati before receiving them.

Spend the extra money and get a room at a place who values you as a customer and appreciates your business.

I'm a bit delayed in my review of this hotel, but to put it short and sweet...it's wonderful! The location is kinda funky though (across the street is a lovely mobile home park LOL). It's very close to the water, but don't expect a view of anything special.

What the hotel lacks in good views, they make up in great service, conveniences and cleanliness. Like I mentioned, they are close to the beaches, but also close to the marina, shops, and lots of cool little restaurants. We've been here 2 or 3 times already, and will be back again. Very professional all around.

This place was dirty and falling apart. The phones didn't work and neither did the TV. I won't be staying at this property again. Also be aware there is no elevator to the 2nd floor.

I stay in hotels about 285 days a year, sometimes for weeks at a time. By far the most comfortable bed in its class. Off season here so bar is closed and restaurant is only open for breakfast. Wi-Fi is solid, staff is great. Guia, is super helpful responsive and accommodating, love working with her. I'm normally a Hilton guy but this property is literally 5 minutes to the jobsite and serves all mine and my crews needs. Great job Holiday Inn staff!!

After being left stranded due to a reservation error on behalf of the staff at another hotel in the error we were desperate to find somewhere to stay. Beyond thankful to have found availability here! Mary at the front desk was so nice and helped us get a room to fit our needs as well as give us a nice one on the top floor to make up for the horrible afternoon we were having. The hotel has parking included which is a great perk. They have a restaurant open for breakfast, a little convenience store/section, gym, pool, jacuzzi and little terrace. The room we got was a double queen suite and was quite spacious, clean and you can't hear your neighbors or people in the hallway either. The beds were comfortable and you also have a mini fridge you are able to use. It's less than a 5 minute drive to the harbor which was super nice too! It was a great stay!

A Holiday Inn close to the Oceanside Pier and the Marina. Excellent location, friendly staff, comfortable and affordable rooms, and really comfy beds. I'd totally stay here again.

And...one night staff even went to find me some ketchup packets after 11pm last night so I could eat my Mac n cheese the way I like it!!! Thank you!!!!!

Hotel is mediocre-- not as good as other Holiday Inns in terms of rooms or amenities.

This bad review is primarily due to the horrible service from Mari at the front desk.

The staff were not good, there were exceptions. Do not even think about using the breakfast service. The breakfast staff gets automatic tips so they enjoy torturing and trying to humiliate the patrons and then they smile and laugh at you( not an exaggeration).
Worst hotel experience I have ever had.

Worse IHG hotel I have ever stayed with. As a former employee, I have never dealt with such unprofessionalism from everyone. How as an ELITE MEMBER am I suppose to get an early check in when they don't even honor early check ins. They are extremely racist against Mexicans and they ruined my start of my vacation.

Some things can't be said in a matter of only a few words. The greatest novels of all time are often hundreds of pages long, with much detail, and a story which deserves such attention. The subject matter is often inspiration enough. With a picture, or a thousand words not being nearly enough.

From the mountain tops, from the valleys, from the coasts and oceans blue. Freedom will always ring. Oceanside is a place that is a supporter of freedom. Camp Pendleton is a home of many brave men and women, and it's a protector of freedom. Twenty Four hours a day, seven days a week, no days off. Always on guard, always watching over us silently. Freedom.

The Holiday Inn here in Oceanside is a supporter as well. From the huge property, to the respect and support they give to our Marines, they come and ensure everyone is treated right. They support the freedom cause from start to finish. They will help you, give you a comfortable room, and do their best keep you safe and clean.

Just like the best of America. They represent our values, and make no qualms about it. The rooms have always been great here, and they have been fantastic when amenities have been requested. Friendly staff are the first point of contact, and they help whenever they are called on.

Freedom rings here. From the sea views, to the hospitality you can always count on the freedom of choice here. Freedom is a 24/7 service. Even at 3am, when you go to the bathroom, and use the thinnest toilet paper I've ever seen in my life.

Even your finger will find freedom. God bless America.
