Top La Mesa Hotel Reviews

Handlery Hotel

Handlery Hotel

8/10 Good
"Our hotel room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The hotel itself is a little dated but it was very clean and that is the most important thing. The pool area was really nice and there was plenty of seating even when the pool got a little busy. The area that the hotel was in was pretty decent and we felt very safe. The only complaint that I have is that you have to pay a nightly parking fee even though you are a guest at the hotel. Other than that, we would stay at this hotel again!"
