The DEXTRO Little Italy, BW Premier Collection
The phone didn’t work in the room to be able to contact the front desk. The pillows were horrible. I requested for my room to be cleaned and was told it would be done yet no one cleaned it.

Wyndham San Diego Bayside
We stayed here one night because we were cruising the next day out of the Port of San Diego. Hotel is older and showing its age a bit. Rooms are very large. Location is great for port and Embarcadero area.
