Best Western Plus La Mesa San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"The only issue was that the water was shut off for about 30 mins without warning, although, it may have been something sudden and they were unable to notify us in a timely manner. Otherwise, very satisfied."

Rancho San Diego Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"The room was nice but the showers were cold. Had to leave ASAP and they sent us to their sister motel inn and the showers were working well there. Nice & hot."

Holiday Inn Express La Mesa Near SDSU by IHG

8/10 Good

"Great price, clean, spacious and newly remodeled rooms in an older hotel. Pool was a no go. But everything else was great"

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."

Northgate Motel
