Newly remodeled, clean, roomy, very pleasant hotel staff. Only 10 minutes from airport, Sea World, Downtown San Diego, Old Town. This is the perfect place for a quiet, reasonably priced stay in the San Diego Area. You can cross HWY 8 and pay almost double for a property of the same class. Try the Travelodge La Mesa while in San... more

My stay at the La Mesa Travelodge was GREAT!! The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to provide me with excellent service. We had arrived in La Mesa earlier than expected, which was a few hours before check in time. When I went to the hotel, they were very happy to let us check in early.... more

Arrived a bit early - front desk was able to get us a room even thought we were early - nice! Cons - Hotel hallways feel a bit run down - some cracked tiles, probably could use a bit of paint and my doorframe was not closed in on our room - you could see light through it - no... more

I must say I have learned to trust tripadvisor and it has yet to let me down. I was going down to San Diego with myself and two other friends (all girls) for the 2008 Comic Con. Most hotels for a decent price were all booked in San Diego and I chose La Mesa since it is right next door... more

I rate this motel a 4 based on the management and the size of the room. I threw the management a huge curve by requesting a roll away bed two days before our arrival. The nice lady at the front desk made arrangements for us to have a larger room that could accomodate a roll away. What we found on... more

We have just returned from a week at the Travel Lodge. The hotel is great and the staff is magnificent and we have never experienced such incredible staff before. The only down fall is the parking, small slots and not enough. If you come back late (after 11:00 pm) you might have to park on the side of the street,... more

What a pleasant surprise! I needed to stay in the area for business and since I've learned to trust Tripadvisor for accurate hotel ratings and this place was rated high, I decided to stay there. And for only a 1 Star hotel, (maybe because the price is so reasonable), it was great! Staff was very friendly and the room was... more

I stayed in this hotel for over 7 months, from Sept 2007 to March 2008, due to the nature of my job. I had nothing but a great and excellent experience at this Travelodge. From the manager, Anal, to room service, I was treated with great importance and attention at all times. The hotel had a very recent face lift... more

The Travelodge La Mesa has out done its self in quality, service, & price. The rooms were very inviting & modern. Room decor with a 27' LCD & Pillowtop mattresses were also a pleasant surprise. Unfortunately, I did not have time to endulge in the property's attractive expanded breakfast. I would recommend this property to everyone. However, the Travelodge sign... more
