Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms are accessible through the lobby, providing added safety. However, there were water damage and dings in the rooms. The location is very convenient, central to major freeways, amenities, and close to a wedding celebration hall. The dining experience was not great, with basic breakfast options at an extra cost.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. While the rooms weren't that clean initially with stuff under the bed and food in unexpected places, they were quite nice and provided a pleasant space to relax after a long day. The service was very pleasant and accommodating, although there were some minor issues. The location was convenient, although a bit noisy at times. The dining experience left something to be desired, as the options were basic and not very satisfying.
The hotel is situated in a nice and quiet neighborhood, close to downtown San Diego, SeaWorld, and the zoo. While the room had some issues similar to what I experienced at Holiday Inn Express, it was still comfortable and pleasant overall. The service was good but not outstanding, and the location was convenient for our needs despite some concerns about security. The dining options were average but satisfactory during my stay.
The hotel is conveniently located close to freeways, malls, and dining, making travel to El Cajon and San Diego easy. The rooms needed some fixing but weren't crowded, with a huge wet spot on the carpet being a downside. The service was pleasant and accommodating overall, with some minor detached moments. The dining experience was described as horrible, with underwhelming meal options. Despite these issues, the location was relatively quiet and convenient.
The hotel is in a convenient location close to places we wanted to visit, but the security presence was a bit concerning. The staff were friendly and accommodating, with Elisha and Aaron standing out for their exceptional service. The on-site dining options left something to be desired, and the hotel facilities overall were satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not so great experiences. The location was convenient, right across from Costco and close to restaurants, but the room was in need of refreshing and didn't feel as clean as expected from a Holiday Inn. The staff, except for a hostile encounter with the head of maintenance, was welcoming and accommodating, although the dining experience left something to be desired with limited options and a lack of service at the bar. Overall, it was an okay stay with some room for improvement.
