"We stayed in a 2 bedroom 2 bath unit. It was perfect for 4 adults. Plenty of room. The kitchen was stocked with dishes. We would certainly stay here again. The only down side, lots of stairs from the parking lot to our unit on the second floor."

El Cajon seemed to have a small town good vibe on its surface. However, there seems to be a dark, seedy underbelly that smacks of degeneracy, despair and overall darkness that appears to have saturated parts of the community.

4/5 - Good

The city itself is reasonably nice. The area we visit is central to the city and there are a lot of options for activities nearby. The only issue I have is the traffic and the many freeway switches required to travel the area.

Place is nice enough but we stayed on our way in to fly out and when we returned a week later. Both times we were awakened early by other guests possibly going to jobs. Don’t seem to care about how load they are.
