Comfort Suites Oceanside Camp Pendleton Area

8/10 Good

"The location was the greatest perk. Proximity to shops, restaurants, beach and Camp Pendleton was excellent. Walking distance to the beach. Only complaint is I still haven't gotten my $100 deposit back and i checked out 6 days ago. Im going to give it one more day and start making calls."

Best Western Plus Oceanside Palms

10/10 Excellent

"I loved staying here and will stay again! Good breakfast, parking was great, pool & hot tub were amazing!"
