4/10 Fair

They were having an mma event in the courtyard. The lobby was crowded with people from that and cluttered and dirty. The event was happening right below our room window and was noisy. We should have been informed of this event when reservations were made. Had a difficult time finding parking. If we are paying guests this shouldn’t be an issue.

Superb
The staff was simply amazing. They were able to accommodate me for my needs the ADA shower. The room was spectacularly clean anything I needed. I could ask them and they would jump to get it for me. I will definitely be back to their hotel if I’m back in El Cajon again

Expensive not worth it. Others near by cheaper.
For this part of town the price per night is overly priced.

Great stay and location.
This was a great choice for San Diego. Super friendly and helpful staff, very clean. If I had to put a negative it would be the breakfast situation. If you pay the $30.00 breakfast prepay. That doesn't get you whatever is on the menu, it is a very limited choice of wjat you can have. Make sure you tell them you pre paid first before ordering. Other than that. No complaints. Location is great, plenty of things to do in walking distance and safe area.
