4/10 Fair

The staff were amazing but the room was,terrible. Smoking smell very strong and suffocating. It even permeated to my clothes and towels. I couldn't bring my children to the room because of that. I ordered non smoking room and there was a sign of non smoking on the room. When I told the staff he said he can only spray a sent to cover it. This was a violation of my rent agreement and although I don't expect a clean hotel in El Cajon in general but this case was unbearable.

Clean room however the shower tile is so old that it have a noticeable grey stain where it should be white. Conveniently located just off the freeway, however you can hear the freeway at night. This is a good choice if you are on a budget. I would stay here again. The staff was very friendly and checkin/checkout was hassle free

The property is quiet. There is a gas station, 711 and taco shop across tbe street. This is a comfortable motel if you need somewhere to rest and DONT want partying and loud noise to disturb you.

Overall it was a pleasant experience, it would have been better had there not been roaches, and if the shower stayed close. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly.

Only if you have to

This hotel needs huge upgrades. There was wet drywall behind the toilet that looked like it was molding, the ceiling tiles had stains, the baseboards were black and grimy, and I killed two cockroaches. On another note, the staff was very helpful, responsive, and pleasant.

The bathroom shower head could use replacing and the walls in there could use a cleaning with some cabinet replacements the beds were really uncomfortable no coffee pot or condiments the towels were stained and the bed cover had burn holes all through it. I think a little changes and this place would be the place to go if you like the piece and quite. Which I do. So I felt like I picked the right place to go. They just need a little TLC.

Future Improvement bring better confident forbthe

Nice and friendly atmosphere i find. Things that are need to pay to is the carpets, bathroom, shower areas, especially wall and all edged, more importantly shower towel must a decent size and bit of thickness clothes regular show towel, proper soap and shampoo holder. More available outlet to connect phone to charger, inventory check, bed with compforness.just as an FYI. Other then i find very convenient location, ample parking and friendly front deck operator.

2/10 Poor

This is a homeless shelter and should not be listed on any booking site. I don’t know if it is legal to operate such a place! If you still stay, you will regret it and it will ruin your visit or vacation in the area. Smell of pee all over in room stairs and walkway. Dirties sheets and towels. A/C was from Middle Ages and obviously could not do the job. Shame on regulators for letting this place be open as it should be condemned because of filth. STAY AWAY!!!!

2/10 Poor

This was the worst day I’ve ever stayed in. We first walked in the walls were all black and dirty. Toilet seat was broken, no bath towel towels. There was a hole on the roof of the restroom holes in all the walls. We filled them with toilet paper because we didn’t know if someone was looking at us the day after we stayed our first day we started getting roaches all over it was disgusting. I complained, but they didn’t care.
