Top Warbirds West Air Museum Hotel Reviews

Rodeway Inn Santee San Diego East

8/10 Good

"The room was clean. New carpet and bedspread. The sink was cracked, so that brought my overall rating down a star . Would have liked 4 towels rather than 2, as they are small. A/c worked super good for our 90+ temperatures."

Best Western Plus La Mesa San Diego

8/10 Good

"It’s a good value, older facility, bed was good, room was spotless. Breakfast was fine , many choices"

Northgate Motel

8/10 Good

"Nice bed quiet area big rooms"

Super 8 by Wyndham El Cajon/San Diego

8/10 Good

"The room was clean. Only thing was missing was the iron and ironing board but luckily I didn't need it for the few days I was there. The major thing that stood out to me was my hotel room door had a big gap at the bottom of the door to where I had to place a towel there to keep anything that may wanted to come in, meaning bugs or rodents. I didn't have any issues with anything coming into my room. The hotel is in a great location with shopping and restaurants nearby. The staff was really nice and helpful when I needed it. As for the Continental breakfast, that can be much better in my opinion. What was offered was not adequate to a breakfast. They should have more varieties of what they offered something along the lines of sausage, patties or links and actual waffle maker to make waffles instead of Frozen ones. Different varieties of muffins, bagels, boiled eggs, oatmeal, etc."

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego El Cajon

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was very accommodating to my stay. I especially wanted to recognize Estella and the gentleman who worked the next day. I want to say his name is Michael. Their kindness, flexibility and great customer service really allowed my family to enjoy their stay for my mother's 60th birthday party. Thank you!!"

Carlton Oaks Lodge, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was excellent. Facilities were average. Price for lodging was pretty good for facilities provided."

Hampton Inn & Suites El Cajon San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was terrible. Not even hot coffee! Very disappointing"

Best Western Santee Lodge
