Top Cowles Mountain Hotel Reviews

WoodSpring Suites Santee - San Diego Northeast

8/10 Good

"The staff at this hotel were welcoming and helpful. Room was clean, bed comfortable. I booked this hotel so that I could cook some of my own meals during my stay. Unfortunately, there were no pots, pans, utensils."

Carlton Oaks Lodge, an Ascend Collection Hotel

8/10 Good

"Really nice ambiance being next to the golf course. We were there during the intense rain and wind from Hurricane Rachel. It just poured and poured and yet we were snug and dry. The long eaves over the corridor outside not only look good but did their job to keep us from the weather. It's an older place, but they have refurbished a lot in the rooms. However, our room had no microwave. It shows its its age in style only. Everything is kept up and is very clean. Unfortunately, the walls are paper thin. We could hear our neighbors but maybe that was only because they were loud and had been standing right next to the wall? Also, no complimentary breakfast."

Om Park Inn and Suites El Cajon near San Diego

8/10 Good

"The room was basic, clean, the king bed is comfortable, and large TV. Better than others with the same price point, I would stay again."

Villa Serena
