Stayed at this Best Western Courtesy Inn in El Cajon, poor internet reception, left for dinner, came back to find the police on the property looking for someone. Had someone knocking at our door at 3:30 am or so asking to "let me use your cell phone, my girlfriend has my phone...", strange way to be awakened. Would not suggest... More

Spend a few more dollars and stay somewhere else. Room, supposedly recently renovated,contained soiled bed spread along with soiled carpet & chairs. A very unpleasant experience overall including the "people" who either own or mange it. Never again...would rather sleep in the car..it would at least be cleaner!! More

The Courtesy Inn is a great value for the price. Just 20 minutes east of downtown, it is a great place to stay. The hotel is clean, the staff is friendly and helpful. It is half the price of any hotel near its quality and location in San Diego. More

Was on business by myself for one night in El Cajon so I rolled the dice with a Best Western. Arriving right at 3 I was able to check in right away which was awesome. The pool was disappointing since it sat in the parking lot almost at the street entrance. No plants or anything around it. Annie was on... More

We chose to stay at this hotel because it was relatively cheap compared to other hotels in the San Diego area. And we get what we paid. + : Nice room, we have been upgraded from a double queen to a king. Very clean. Very quiet, we slept very well. Staff was nice and efficient. Breakfast was ok. Free parking.... More

This hotel is not anything like it advetises. This is as close to fraudulant as you can get. The pool was disgusting and extremely small, no one in their right mind would swim in this thing. The continental breakfast was a total joke- the place to eat is smaller than a walk-in closet (as a matter of fact I think... More

We arrived early and didn't have any problems checking in. Our 2 room deluxe suite was perfect for me, my husband and our 2 teenage sons. The rooms were clean and pretty spacious. Our room had 2 queen beds, an armoire (which contained a tv, microwave and refrigerator). Behind the front door is a door way (no door) into the... More

No roaches as far as I could tell. The sheets didn't have any hairs on them. Ok, that's the good stuff. Now the bad stuff: the room was dirty, piles of dust along the floor's edges. Quite dumpy! The "breakfast" was horrible: green bananas, white bread for toast, and a box of donuts! Stay here only if you can't find... More
