    Stayed here for a night. The staff was nice enough to let me check in early. I booked a smoking room and was shocked to find it smelled nor looked like... a smoking room. Comes with mini frig and 1980 microwave but its decent. It was pretty quiet considering it was a weekday stay. I'd stay again. Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 20, 2013

    I stayed overnight to take a test nearby.All of the reviews that slam this place for being old might be a little harsh. Sure its old and funky but it was clean. The staff was very helpful. It was secure, wifi worked great. Walking distance to El Cajon Brewery and half a dozen restaurants. Great value. Would stay here again for an overnight.

    The walkways were slanted and had to walk on in the rain. The furniture in the room was chipped. The bathroom was very small. The attendant did offer to carry luggage up to second floor because it was raining. The breakfast was joke.

    The price was inexpensive, but it would have been worth spending $10-20 extra to stay elsewhere. The front desk staff were very short, not offering any information except the room number and key. I chose a non-smoking room and the room smelled horribly of smoke. Helicopters flew overhead several times during the night and others staying were noisy through […] the night as well. It was not peaceful, was run down on the outside and furniture was damaged on the inside. I won't ever stay here again, nor would I recommend it. Read more

    The A/C in our room hardly worked and had to set up our own fans. The ice machine was broken. The pool was closed for more the the four nights that we stayed there. The room was very small and had little walking space. The price was reasonable, if everything had been working.

    This hotel was dreadful. The room wasn't cleaned when we arrived at 4pm. We walked up to the room the clerk gave us the key too and there was filth on the floors, cigarettes in a non smokeing room, the bathroom had razors in it and the wall was falling down.

    It was the worst hotel we have ever stayed. This hotel should not have any star at all. We changed rooms and both had carpet that was extremely old with stains. Bedspread had stains on it. The furniture was sticky at the touch. Bathrooms had dirty black grout and shower curtain with visible mildew. The bathroom was not even painted and finished properly. […] Very uncomfortable old mattress and pillows. Breakfast included..what breakfast? there were two cereal dispensers, one type of milk, orange juice, and nothing else. ABSOLUTELY NO VALUE FOR THE MONEY! Read more

    A maid came into my room and managed to throw away my comb and take away two shower towels that where still clean, but not make up my bed nor empty out my can full of trash; I told the night shift clerk at the front desk to give me a wake-up call 5 am the next morning; I didn't get the call; I woke up on my own at 7:20 am and had four job interviews […] starting at 8 am, and had to take a cab to get to the interviews on time (which means he almost cost me one or more career opportunities and cost me over $40 with his incompetence); their washers and dryers worked inadequately when I needed to do my laundry; on top of all that, the night shift clerk wanted to cop a disrespectful attitude with me and tried to convince me it was my fault the door to the laundry room would only open from the outside. So with all that being said, I have recommend to everyone not to use this motel. This is only the second motel I've had problems with and, coincidentally, it was a Travelodge like the first one. So while I'm at it, I'll tell everyone to stay away from all Travelodge motels. Read more

    The hotel is old, so it needs some remodeling. The carpet was pretty wore and stained. The TV didn't have a remote and there weren't any movie (pay) channels. The bathroom was old like everything else but it was clean and didn't smell bad. My wife and I just stayed there because it was next to the bar we were partying at that night.

    I recently re-relocated to San Diego and while waiting for my new apartment to be ready, I stayed in the Travelodge for a few reasons. The price was right, they weren't too far from the Trolley (under a mile) and they take pets! The maid service was helpful and friendly. After a few days in their hotel they knew me by name, knew that my cat was scared […] of the vacuum cleaner, knew that I would need fresh towels and refills for the coffee and the related accoutrements. What I didn't like was the run down AC units, and the low-quality soaps they use. Also, my room only had a stand up shower... and sometimes I like baths. All in all, I'd stay there again. Read more
