El Cajon Motels

I have stayed at this hotel numerous times.The atmosphere around the hotel is ok. There is a Jack in the box, a bank,The Golden Coral,a car dealer, a local store, and numerous places to eat at within 2 blocks. The gas station/store is open 24 hours in within walking distance. I frequently stay at this hotel,I have health issues, and the staff accommodates me very well. I always have clean linen, the water pressure to take a shower has been very adequate. The maids come and clean every other day. My 2 dogs love it when we stay at this location.I stay to myself and very rarely do I get bothered by anyone. The management staff are very helpful and friendly. The hotel maintenance is quick to fix any problems that may arise. The maids ,I have always received excellent service. Even if they seem to be having a rough day they will give you a smile. I frequently utilize the service at the hotel. Very pet friendly. I would recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay. Thank you Dawn Disney

It seemed we reserved the last available room in the city of El Cajon for 1 night on a Saturday night. We had zero expectation and frankly expected a dump because of the horrendous reviews. Check-in was fast, lobby has 2 chairs, a table with coffeemaker and a rack full of San Diego tours and flyers. They issue only 1 key to the room and another key to the Super 8 motel next door if we need ice. True story. Parking is tight but free. Our room was on the 1st floor. Building has 2 floors with no elevator. Inside the room is a king bed with no headboard, 4 pillows, wood floors, microwave, mini fridge, safe, sink outside of the bathroom, hairdryer, TV and a disgusting old chair that has seen better days. The whole place could use a makeover. Bring your own toiletries. Towels and toilet paper are thin. We were afraid to avail of the free breakfast. Hot water and shower pressure worked great; AC was cold; there were multiple electric outlets; WiFi was fast and even if location is on a main street we weren’t bothered by noise. We were allowed to check-out at 11:30am. It was okay for a quick overnight stay to avoid a DUI.
