Had to move to 3 times to get a room that was somewhat decent. lights didn't work, roaches, dead bolt did not work, door had gaps you could see outside and staff said they would take care of it but in the evening the staff said they had no record of needing to move rooms and that their staff didn't inform them. They made it my fault they don't communicate among them selves. Id like my money back

REFUND NEEDED by October 11th
I need my money back. We did not check in at Quality El Cajon due to safety concerns and hygiene levels. Pictures are way more beautiful and actual place is very bad. I had to spend two times more dollars for alternate accommodation management again this Pay back my money by October 11th 2024 OR I will file a complaint in consumer court claiming for pain and suffering caused to our family with children.

Not a Hotel is an apartment complex-blood on walls
This is not a hotel!!!It is an apartment complex where ppl live. The place is disgusting there was blood on the walls. Trash can outside of the rooms full. I checked in got my room key with my family and walked right out when I saw the room. The bathtub had roaches and was dirty/moldy tub. The room was also not what I had paid for I had “reserved” a room with a bed sofa and the room I was given had only 2 queen beds. It’s the worst and most disgusting place I have ever seen. Shame on Hotels.com for having this on their website.

I was so disappointed and disgusted with this reservation. When we arrived it was infested with cockroaches, stains on the beds, the ac wasn’t working, walls were dirty like they haven’t cleaned them in years. I went to tell the front staff if they could give us another room, because I had 4 children oldest being 8 youngest being 4 months old and wasn’t comfortable having them sleep in there. Mind you we drove almost 8 hours.. they told me they didn’t have anymore rooms and if we wanted to cancel it would be $200 on top of the $100 damage deposit I had put down. To top it off they when we returned from an outing The next day, our room had not been cleaned! I was so disappointed. Never again

They only cleaned once on our stay, and not well either. Most of the outlets in our place didnt work. The door to the bathroom door didnt close. The shower will either give you really hot or really cold water. The people at the front desk were helpful and nice, and the breakfast was almost always stocked.

Rented a room this past weekend for my son’s football game. So we got the double bed with the pullout bed couch. The place was clean, but the toilet was messed up, it wouldn’t flush, & the tv didn’t work. I went & complained to the front desk and the lady at the front desk said she would call maintenance. We waited an hour, and she came to the room door & explained that the maintenance man had left but she was nice enough to try to at least fix the tv. She wasn’t successful. This place is a disaster.

I booked a room with two beds and a sofa bed but when I get to the room there was no sofa bed, we had to all squeeze into two beds. I asked where the sofa bed was at and they said there was no more but when I booked the room I booked it because it came with an extra sofa bed

I was “upgraded” into a kitchenette that hadn’t seen a good floor cleaning in a long time, judging by the multiple gouges, scuff marks and splotches (origin unknowable) across the entire floor. Th AC unit blew right into heavy drapes and a lighter weight curtain which one was forced to tie back in order for the AC to function. Wait! I’m not done: the shower was supposed to be handicap accessible but whoever designed it should have his/her license revoked because: - once the water was turned on the entire room flooded making it extremely hazardous to move even a step - the water controls are located behind a ( supposedly handicapped) person who could be seated in a secured bench in the shower, making it impossible to adjust temperature without standing up and turning around (see flooding above) - the non-skid bath mat would’ve been great for a five-year-old but isn’t suitable for an adult, disabled or not - the flooding included the toilet area (same room) - a solution to the hazardous flooding was to make floor mats out of the bath towels supplied, which soaked up a lot of water - then it was safe to cross the room to a dry area (the above-described pock-marked flooring). Yes, ants and other interesting little creatures appeared to feel at home. One could only wonder what others went unseen. The kitchenette had a full-size range/oven, 12 cu. ft. refrigerator, sink AND a microwave large enough for a turkey 50 yrs ago. Not now. Gut it. -
