"This was the worst hotel I stayed ever. First when I booked this hotel was because of the price and it was very close to the University that was son going to attend the upcoming school year. There was good and bad reviews when I did my research but I never expected the conditions the hotel had until we got there. We notice a few homeless Check in was fairly good because the lobby was clean. If fact, we were staying there because it was move in day at the university."

Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego – Zoo/SeaWorld Area

8/10 Good

"The staff was wonderful and helpful. I did have to have my room cleaned again however they were on it with no bad attitude. Outdoor pool was great. Breakfast was great, but mostly I would come back just for the staff."

Hotel del Coronado, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"This was our first visit to this resort and we found it to be a very enjoyable experience. Our room was very clean as well as the whole resort. The staff was very accommodating and eateries provided good quality food. The only negative was we found the gym to be somewhat small for such a large resort. Also the pool area would fill up really quickly, so finding a chair was a bit challenging at times."
