Motel 6 El Cajon, CA - San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"quick easy check in, air conditioning worked well."

Best Western Santee Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"I was honestly very surprised with this hotel. Everything was nice and clean & the staff was very nice . Breakfast was very delicious as well. U can make ur own waffles, they had omelettes, breakfast sausages, boiled eggs, bagels, cereal, yogurts, coffee, apple juice, orange juice & fruit."

Carlton Oaks Lodge, an Ascend Collection Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room could have been a little cleaner. For example there was a lady's hair tie in the bathroom when we checked in, and the carpet was dirty enough to black the bottom of your feet after a shower. If the carpet was cleaned more frequently, that would solve the only major issue. We've stayed here before and I don't mind coming back"

A Walk in the Clouds: Stunning Views, Game Room, Pool & Hot Tub!

8/10 Good

"Positives: * The view was amazing!* Plenty of room to spread out for our 3 families.* The backyard was our favorite spot - with several seating areas, a grill, a firepit, a pool (with pool toys!), and a hot tub, it was all we could have wanted in a backyard space.* Home was well-stocked with kitchen items (with labeled cabinets, which was super helpful) & towels (which we definitely needed plenty of). * It was great to have a separate laundry room, & even though the washer is SUPER deep/large, the host did supply a foot stool for us short moms. :)* Overall, a great property!Negatives:* We did have to ask for Kleenexes; the host DID have someone bring some by the next day.* The game room was SO hot, we couldn't spend much time in there. It was one of the reasons we booked the property, but we couldn't stand the heat.* The listing said there was garage parking, but there wasn't any since they had converted it into a game room. * Not near enough outlets in the rooms.* The spa jets weren't working for the first half of the trip - but they did eventually send someone to fix it. * There weren't near enough trash cans - only in bathrooms & kitchen.* One bedroom has limited space to even walk. It's a small bedroom with a huge king bed. We could hardly walk around in it. * The pool vacuum cannot be removed from the pool, but it takes up a LOT of space, so you can really only enjoy 1/2 of the pool. When it's running in the afternoon, you can't really enjoy it at all."

Resort Like Oasis: 7BR Home, Pool, Hot Tub & Bar

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful time here! The host was accommodating and communicative. We had an issue at one point and he came over to fix it. The checkout process was so easy! We all loved the pool! We used all the amenities: pool, slide, hot tub, fire pit, grill, putting green, futsol, ping pong, etc. We had all lived in San Diego at some point so touristy things weren’t important to us but we had planned to go out a few times to just have things to do. We ended up only going to the beach for a few hours one day and stayed at the house the rest of the time because we enjoyed what was at the house so much. Getting to the airport and other attractions was easy though from this location. Pet friendly was a big deal to us. Also of note, we had two wheel chairs and there was at least one bedroom and bathroom that had wide enough doors. There is a step to get in but we were able to pop a wheelie to get over it with assistance. Same with the back sliding door. The large bathroom doesn’t have grab bars or a shower bench but we brought our own shower chair and that helped. I wouldn’t say it’s ADA but for someone who is in a manual chair, we were able to make it work. Overall we had a great time!"
