Holiday Inn Express La Mesa Near SDSU by IHG

Nice and convenient hotel for our stay in San Diego. The property is a bit outdated and the laundry facilities really need to be updated — I wasn’t able to do laundry on-site and had to take it to a family member’s house. That said, the hotel staff more than made up for it. Anna and Mena both went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Mena, the general manager, was absolutely outstanding. She checked in on us daily to make sure everything was okay, and her hospitality truly made us feel at home. She not only recommended a fantastic kabob spot in El Cajon and suggested a hairstylist for my mom before the communion party, but she also went out of her way to change our room to better accommodate our needs. Mena’s genuine kindness, attention to detail, and constant willingness to help left such a positive impression on us — she is the type of manager who turns a good trip into a great one. Anna also made our stay special. She helped us find places to go sightseeing and, when we were in the lobby dressed for the communion party, she kindly offered to take photos so my whole family could be in the picture together. Their kindness and dedication really stood out and helped make our experience memorable. With some updates to the property, this could easily be a five-star stay.

Rooms were clean and hotel itself was clean.

Staff had excellent customer service, plenty space to park, breakfast was good (but had an issue with pancake maker burning and sticking) but eventually got fixed. Beds were comfortable and rooms were quiet. Great kitchenette area with amenities.

nothing negative to say. stay was pleasant.

Na

Room smelled like mildew , had to get moved to another room & that room wasnt cleaned . I did an early check out and they dont want to refund my money . Terrible hotel do not stay here

That staff was extremely friendly. Clean rooms.

The ridiculous $20 parking fee! Are you kidding me??? The food was horrible 😫 hard cheese omelet the oatmeal was paste I'll never stay at a Holiday Inn again.

I liked the location, friendly staff and breakfast buffet. Dislikes were the noise at night as I was near a main entrance/exit. I was also on the ground floor facing the parking lot and the late check-in people hit their remote door locks at all hours with the car horns beeping at 2, 3 ,4 am. Makes it hard to sleep. But not completely the fault of the hotel.
