My stay at the Holiday Inn Express in La Mesa was as how I expected it to be. The reason I choose to book exclusively with HIE is their consistency, no matter the location. They hold a high standard of quality, cleanliness, and customer service, that I really appreciate.

I have stayed here five times now when visiting my daughter at SDSU. Fabulous stays. The staff is thoughtful and helpful always. Rooms are clean and the breakfast is very well prepared, with healthy options and, once again, the hotel staff in charge of the breakfast always asks if there's anything they can get for us.
