We really enjoyed our stay at the Holiday Inn Express in La Mesa Ca. The young man at the front desk Armando was very pleasant and helpful with checking me in. He really does a great job. So did Aileen when I checked out! In fact all the staff was smiling as we walked the hallways and were helpful if we had any questions on where anything was. The breakfast was pretty good! The cook was was very nice and made sure that we had all the necessities for the breakfast. They had a variety of options to eat. I highly recommend this hotel. Oh and the bed sheets and pillows were very white and clean! They smell clean!! I felt very comfortable and safe walking around with my family when I went to the breakfast area!

The overall stay was great; however, they failed to mention that there was a parking fee for each day prior to booking and that the pet deposit was for each day instead of one fee. When we got our bill we were less than thrilled to see extra fees on this.

Great stay!
Overall, we had a great stay. The property is clean and comfortable and has been updated. The beds are comfortable. There are several food options close by and a Costco across the street. We were in town for parents’ weekend at SDSU and the hotel was close to campus. I wish they had cleaned our room at least once during our stay - I’m sure they would have if we had asked. Hotel staff very helpful. Breakfast was great - lots of options.

No hot water ! No notice
There was no hot water . The bathroom door wouldn’t stay closed The hot water was what we needed after a long cold night out It was horrible I’d be happy with a refund because we stayed and had to deal with all that too tired to look for another place
