Top San Diego Hotel Reviews

The DEXTRO Little Italy, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome for everything we really enjoyed our stay. Parking was close and easy. Rooms clean and easy to locate we love your security card for elevator and parking area. And hotel was close to every thing restaurants parks and FWY. 😊"

The Dana on Mission Bay

8/10 Good

"The property is a good one. Lots of pretty scenery. The tropical pool area is nice with a lot of greenery. The pools are clean and the water is warm. The tropical pool can get a bit overwhelming with kids at certain times. The front main pool is more chill. The rooms are clean, however we had cigarette butts and hair from a dog on our lanai. We had to ask them to come clean for us. Overall it’s a good property. Great value and I would recommend it if you have kids or are traveling for a mini vacation. Don’t expect a large resort feel though. "

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

2/10 Terrible

"Room was dirty and AC was broken. They gave us a new room after we spoke with them. Then we went to open the door to the new room and heard people talking as I grabbed the door handle, two men walked out. I complained to the manager and he started arguing with me. This place has really gone down the toilet. Will NOT be staying there again."
