Motel 6 El Cajon, CA - San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"My room was quiet and the AC maintained a comfrontable cool. I enjoyed my stay."

Days Inn by Wyndham San Diego-East/El Cajon

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk lady was sweet. Check in was easy. My room was very clean. I see there was some remodeling done. Nice touch. But the pool and hot tub was down. Totally sucked because I booked for the perks of having a pool and hot tub on sight. And El Niños is kicking Californias butt! 97 degrees yesterday!!!"

Best Western Santee Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Very quiet and clean place"

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego El Cajon

8/10 Good

"Clean, well maintained property. The only thing that left a sour taste for me was they charged for parking our car in the lot. The fee for parking was never mentioned when booking this hotel property. Also the front desk attendant that checked me in never mentioned it when he told me to put this parking pass on my dashboard. It didnt make sense to me to charge for parking. We weren't staying downtown with limited parking."
