Top Old Mission Dam Hotel Reviews

Lamplighter Inn & Suites at SDSU

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was outstanding, very kind, helpful clearly took pride and has wonderful management knowing the area. I was a little apprehensive, but after seeing the grounds and how well maintained and clean everything was, I was pleasantly surprised."

Rodeway Inn San Diego Near SDSU

8/10 Good

"The area was nice. The hotel could use some property clean up in general. The restaurant/ bar next door was good and the staff there were great!! The pool was small but warm and it worked for a night of swimming. Lots of workers staying there. They were nice though! Breakfast was a sad story. But that’s okay. All in all it was nice enough. The room itself was clean enough."

Motel 6 La Mesa, CA - San Diego

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and much nicer than an average Motel 6. The toiletries were appreciated. We could have enjoyed a fridge, but otherwise no real complaints!"

Best Western Santee Lodge

8/10 Good

"The young lady who registered me was very nice and polite. The cleaning staff were very friendly and attentive. For breakfast there are instructions on how to get the batter in a cup and pour it into the waffle machine, however there aren’t instructions on what to do once you pour the batter into the waffle machine. They could put some instructions about the machine and make it easier. The room was clean and well kept. We were in room 121 and the handle on the toilet needs to be repaired. Yes,we would stay there again."
