Motel fine but area sketchy
The area was a bit sketchy but it wasn’t the motel’s fault. The room was fine and the bed comfortable.

The hotel was adequate but some guest had a barking dog which was surprising and annoying. Several homeless on and around the hotel I will be skipping this location next visit to El Cajon.

The manager was wonderful and very accommodating. 4 police cars showed up and entered a room near us at night. Freaked us out a bit. Not a nice area, but if this is where you need to be, then it is what it is. Crazy expensive for the location

Awful
The room was okay not the best but okay I still had to wipe down the bathroom a bit; when I booked it it said breakfast included and there was nothing and the clerk did not want to answer any questions; so we just checked out the next day and left.
