Top Casa de Balboa Hotel Reviews

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

8/10 Good

"Not enough staffs at check in counter. Lots of flights crews stay at this hotel, when they arrive, they have priority to check in, check in counter staffs will jump out to serve them first. Lack of communication between check in staffs and luggage storage staffs. The hotel is old and outdated but well maintained. Great location by the bayside, easy access to maritime museum and USS Carrier, easy to get around down town, little Italy and etc. Stayed in bay view room with balcony, enjoyed the nice view. Spacious and comfortable room. Because of the drawbacks mentioned, only 4 stars were given."

Keating Hotel By At Mine Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great value! Really nice staff, both engaging via texts and in person. Self service if you need more soap or lotion. The room is large and quiet and the location is ideal. One thing to note is that the shower and sinks are not separated from the bed area so privacy can be a challenge (the toilet is enclosed)."

The Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"very peaceful, and clean"

Handlery Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Stay over the weekend with family . The rooms were clean but just a little too small . the only thing that we were bump about was the Saturday the pool was close for an accident which we didn’t really get to enjoy . But staff was great and the restaurant/bar they have was really convenient."

Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

Uptown Inn by Vantaggio - Limited Service Apart-Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in a great location with an amazing staff."

Ash&9th

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone who worked in the lobby was super friendly! The vending machine selections were decent and not too pricey. It's an old motel, but the interiors have been redone and they are more than adequate. Very efficient for what we needed."

The Neon Elm Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our room and the grounds, looking forward to going back despite the street parking and we wish there was a full length mirror in our room also"
