9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (1004)
"The staff was great. They communicated effectively and they helped out whenever possible. The property is on the smaller side, so if you’re looking for cozy you will enjoy it. The pool area is small, so seating is limited. Other than that, there is a ton to do around the property as the walk path abuts the pool and directly past that is the beach. "

Wyndham Garden San Diego Near SeaWorld

Wyndham Garden San Diego Near SeaWorld

5/5 Excellent
Comfortable weekend stay.
"Weekend stay after visit to Sea World, last minute booking and stay was quite comfortable. Room was very clean, and we had everything we needed; we slept comfortably with the exception of a couple of loud airplanes passing by in the middle of the night. Also parking lot under construction made it a bit of a hassle, but other than that it is a great place to stay, so many things to do near by and our stay was good. Very friendly staff at reception and hot coffee in the morning in the lobby, (thanks). Will definitely stay here again, and absolutely reccommend it. "
