This Motel, yes I said Motel because this is not a hotel is located in a chevron gas station. Don't trust these other people and their reviews they were made by the people that work for... More

This is the third review I have written for this hotel and I am glad to say it is still the best value in El Cajon. We usually visit in January when it is relatively quiet but this year we were there in March when it was much busier. The breakfst room was still spotless and well-maintained even when full.The...

Have stayed 10 times & always get consistently great service. Microwave, fridge, and good breakfast at no extra cost. Paulo or Bernadette are always glad to turn the air conditioning on ahead of my arrival on a hot day. Most guests are families or construction workers. The parking lot has always felt safe and we have never been woken up... More

The hotel is older, but always kept in good condition. The beds are comfortable & the rooms clean. The continental breakfast is more than just that. We stay here whenever we visit San Diego because it's close, convenient & a good "home base". We have always found the staff helpful & courteous. More

Room was old and needed to have a good cleaning and coat of paint. The door didn't meet so cold air came into the room The bed was comfortable. Easy access to the freeway but not too much noise downstairs. The all suite side (only side in pictures) would have been a better place but for the price NO! Check... More

Clean rooms, comfortable beds, excellent service, and easy access to the freeway all for an affordable price. After a late flight in to San Diego I arrived at the hotel around midnight. The staff was friendly and check in was quick and easy. My room was conveniently located on the ground floor, and I was able to park right in... More

Nice hotel, close to I-8 and San Diego! I loved the breakfast, which I heard was recently upgraded; my kids loved the fresh waffles and the sausage :) rooms were nice, and the price was even better. We enjoyed our stay! More

This place is the best deal for the money in San Diego. The rooms are Clean, The Staff Friendly and there is often much better weather here than fifteen minutes away at the Coast.I first came to this place because it had availability when the rest of San D was booked out during ComiCon. I remembered it again when I... More

If you need a place to stay in El Cajon, stay here! Just off the freeway, the rooms are CLEAN, and the service staff was very attentive to our needs. The property is monitored by security cameras, adding an extra layer of security for me while traveling in an unfamiliar area. The highlight of our time at this hotel was... More
