Breakfast included with little but enough choices. The highlight is the waffle station :-) The rooms are spacious, the area is quiet with a 20min drive to San Diego. We loved the pool and used the laundry room on our trip. For restaurants just asked the front desk, we loved the sushi next door and dirty birds across the street.

What guests said about La Mesa:

Scored out of 10, guest rating 2.0

The cleanliness was absolutely unacceptable.

The cleanliness was absolutely unacceptable. There were dead cockroaches behind my bed, the carpets smelled terrible, and the bathroom had no shower gel, shampoo, or even hand soap. In one of the rooms, the shower water was cut off, and we couldn’t shower for the entire stay. We even had to request toilet paper because it had run out. Despite the advertisement mentioning a free coffee maker, coffee, and other amenities in the room, none of these were provided. There wasn’t even a proper table to sit at — only one broken chair that I was afraid to use. The mattress was covered with a plastic nylon sheet underneath the bed sheet (apparently to protect the mattress), which was extremely uncomfortable and made sleeping very hot and unpleasant. On top of all this, because of an issue they claimed to have with Booking.com regarding payment, I was charged twice. This was by far one of the worst hotel experiences I have ever had.

THEY NEED TO PUT MICROWAVES IN THE ROOMS.

THEY NEED TO PUT MICROWAVES IN THE ROOMS. ALSO WHEN I CHECKED IN ON THE MAY 10,2023 THEY FAILED TO TELL ME THAT YOU CAN ONLY STAY 14 DAYS. BUT I RESERVED THE ROOM AGAIN FOR 3 DAYS AND THAT'S WHEN I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE LENGTHS OF TIME YOU COULD STAT THERE. BY THAT TIME I HAD BEEN THERE16 DAYS. SO I WAS PAYING FOR THE 3 DAYS RESERVATION WITH MY BANK CARD IT CAME BACK DECLINED,SO I WAS ALLOWED TO PAY FOR ONE MORE DAY WITH CASH AND TOLD I HAD TO CHECK OUT THE NEXT MORNING. HERITAGE HAS MY MONEY PENDING AND I WAS TOLD I HAVE TO WAIT 31 DAYS+1 BEFORE I GET IT BACK. THE MERCHANT SENT PAPERWORK SAYING PAYMENT FAILED AND THEY WEREN'T TAKING IT. BUT STILL I HAVEN'T RECEIVED IT BACK YET. HERITAGE INN IS WORSE THAN JANKY PROMOTERS.I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND IT TO MY WORST ENEMY.

We were there during a heat wave, so were very uncomfortable . Did not go many places other than to see the family we came to visit. Not having access to a cool shower after a very hot day was miserable. We ate at Gus’s Deli several times and very much enjoyed the food. Getting around La Mesa is easy, however, we are familiar with the area. We would avoid staying at this Holiday Inn.

A pretty soulless place and not worth the stay for pure tourism. I guess if you are visiting the Uni there is a reason to stay. Best bit was getting the trolley into downtown San Diego ($5 return) and reasonable proximity to places like Julian. Won’t rush back.

Beautiful, clean, great location, quiet. The receptionist was friendly and professional. I had booked for king bed but she told me I booked a room the was not available but she was able to get me a room with two Queen. Great site , location , beautiful and clean. I felt as if I was going to a movie theater. I had a great stay. Will book again to stay at the location.

Frustrated that booking.com sold us a family room with two seperate rooms, when we arrived it was a slightly larger Queen with 2 Queen beds. We could have booked that for less money at the same time. Hotel said they couldnt help as we had booked through booking.com. Waiting for a response from booking.com
