Best Western Seven Seas
The WiFi was great and for the two nights we were there, it was perfect. The front desk guy was nice and professional, even had a good sense of humor as we checked in around 11pm on Tuesday. We checked out at three am on Thursday and it was the same guy with the same warm demeanor. Wasn’t a 5 star ...

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego
We stayed at the Woodstock suite and we loved the view. The room is well thought out in terms of the use of space. The shower was lovely and the bed was comfortable. I loved the wrap around balcony.
