Hotels near Mesa Trailhead (Cowles Mountain) in Santee

This was a nice motel in a safe area. It was very reasonably priced. This motel is actually on a golf course which adds to the environment and offers fun. It had large rooms that had been updated. The outside needs to be updated as well, but overall, it was a good place to stay.

The rooms are situated right next to a very small parking lot. Parking is tight. Don't expect to bring a larger vehicle in there. Any noise from that parking lot travels inside of these rooms. Continuous noise throught the night. Hard to find parking. Homeless everywhere, so don't leave anything in your vehicle. Breakfast area only open 2 hours, so not only can't you sleep, but you have to be up early to take advantage of their breakfast. Breakfast area very small. Plan to eat in your room.

Although the location of the hotel is far from the city, it is very convenient to drive. There is a gas station next to it. The price of oil is not expensive. The accommodation environment is generally the same. The big bed room we booked is not a non-smoking room. The smoke inside is very big. It feels like a smoke when you sleep for a night...

This has easily been the worst hotel room I've ever stayed at in the US. Awful, I guarantee you are better off staying anywhere else. We are a family of three and we have stayed at a lot of 3-star places during road trips (and myself during business trips), this was by far the worst I have ever seen. The layout was a typical king and a sofa bed but the space was absolutely tiny without any room left when the sofa bed was opened. The mattress of the sofa bed was disgustingly filthy (I know because we had to put the linen ourselves despite having booked it for three). There is absolutely no soundproofing whatsoever. None, zero: in the morning we woke up from the neighbouring rooms doors slamming open and close, in the evening you could hear the TV's through the thin walls. And 24h you can hear the traffic from the nearby highway. Breakfast was absolutely minimal (no fruit, no pastry, no cheese). No WiFi access in the room. The pictures showing a large lobby and swimming pool are entirely misleading: the swimming pool is actually small sized. Literally a tiny room at a cheap motel at the price of a 4-star hotel and a miserable experience.

Originally chose this one to see it has a refrigerator and battery stove for a small half-month stay. But the refrigerator is very noisy and the air conditioning system is the same. In addition, the hotel is not adequately staffed, every time I remind the front desk staff to do hygiene. But someone came only the next day. Also laundry and drying is expensive. Laundry room costs $16 at a time. Also due to close to the highway, the environmental noise problem is serious.

This was my first stay at a Springfield Suite. I picked this property because of the location. The front desk staff are extremely gracious as is the the housekeeping staff. The room layout is compartmentalized and functional. Bed was very comfortable, ac is quiet, hot water comes on fast, room is very clean, nice selection of cable stations plus you can watch Netflix, Amazon, and other selections. Property offers a free breakfast which includes scrambled eggs, sausage patty, oatmeal, fruit, yogurt, bagels, toast, English muffins, juice and coffee. Large eating area. There is a Chiles Restaurant, Jack in the Box and Shell Station next to property and several other restaurants within a 1 minute walk. I had meetings in San Diego and Palm Desert, so the location of this property saved me about 30 minutes on the way to Palm Desert and it was a nice drive (except for gas prices).

Great location just minutes drive to Mission and downtown areas. Rooms are spacious and clean. Only issue is maintaining AC temp through out the night, somehow it seems the AC goes off about 3 am. Free complimentary breakfast with good selection, preparation, and presentation.

Just an average hotel. It's clean, but tired. Beds are fine, bathrooms are fine, and pool is fine. You'll sleep fine here, but I probably wouldn't return to it and would rather try a Holiday Inn Express or Best Western instead. Pool - It looked ok, but pretty cold (checked in Feb). The hot tub is more of a warm tub. If I had small kids, I bet they'd take a quick dip in the 77-78 degree larger pool and then hang out in the hot tub. Breakfast - Seems like the standard fare of eggs from a mix, muffins, bagels, and the oh so favorite of absolutely no one, red delicious apples. Why are those at every single hotel free breakfast. Would have loved to have seen something special or different at this hotel. We ended up going out to somewhere else for breakfast. Rooms - Clean, but kind of out dated. Bathroom had a bit of mold in the calking, but overall it was fine. Internet - I'm typing this review on the provided free internet. I'm getting 3Mbit down and 4Mbit up so not exactly the fastest, but it will let you type up TripAdvisor reviews. Google Maps struggles to draw directions and FaceTime doesn't work that well. Might be a variety of reasons so your milage may vary. Parking - By far my biggest complaint. There is tons of parking everywhere. I don't know how anyone would get here unless they had a car. They charge $5 per night to park at the hotel. There is no value add here except what feels like a money grab. I suppose you could park at a nearby business park, but parking at the hotel is probably your best bet. Why not just wrap the charge into the room rate? They don't provide any sort of added security and there's no shortage of spots available.
