California Suites Hotel
Beds were comfy even if they are on the older side. Hotel was clean and the room was nice. My only complaint is that there arent enough mirrors for more than 1 person. The hot tub was amazing and made the stay more enjoyable. Parking was easily found in the hotel lot

DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego - Del Mar
All went well. Everyone was super nice. Bartenders were professional. Room was clean and in good condition as expected. The only disappointment was the fact that the cafe was not open for lunch on our departure.

GreenTree Inn San Diego Mission Bay
I like that my room had a microwave and fridge. I didn’t use the microwave, but I did use the fridge. I liked their breakfast; sausage and eggs were good, but the potatoes were undercooked. The bathroom door was hard to close. The bathroom fan was not working. But overall, I liked the room.
