Sunny San Diego Home w/ Private Yard & Grill!

Linda Vista

"I was a very nice stay in a clean home, very impressed. The next statement are improvement suggestions. We had to clean the grill before using it. The grease trap underneath the burners was pretty thick and a potential fire hazard. The patio can use better lighting. The base of tub needs a new bead of chalking. The Brita water pitcher is cracked on the bottom and leaked in the refrigerator. We washed the hammock that smelled like dog my wife said. All in all a very nice comfortable stay."

The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

8/10 Good

"The staff are excellent, especially behind the front desk went out of there way to help had a group of 7 showed up early stored are luggage safely behind the counter and found us a nice restaurant for lunch. The hotel was recently remodeled so they are still working out some of the kinks that didn't get finished, the pool and hot tub are nice, the exercise room could use updated equipment and another tread mill but it got the job done, my only complaint is towels are too small and they don't clean the bathrooms everyday you have to call."

Ramada Suites by Wyndham San Diego/Hotel Circle Area

8/10 Good

"The hotel itself is old and dated; very much in need of an overhaul. Very no frills; that being said. The room was clean; the bed and pillows comfy. The small fridge kept everything cold. No lotions in the bathroom. Other guests complained of odor; our room was fresh. There was an interior hallway that had doors that remained open to the outside rooms on all the floors. That hallway had a musty smell. Again; no frills. The staff was helpful and very friendly. The breakfast is basic chain hotel fare. Waffles, eggs, sausage/ bacon. Bagels; little muffins; bread and cereal. Just the basics. My husband and I stayed a week; it was quiet; couldn't hear the freeway noise. The air conditioner worked very well. The pool was clean; we didn't use it but other guests did. The hot tub wasn't working. Parking was ample. 14.00 a night is a bit steep. Considering we only needed the room for sleep; we couldn't beat the price. That left us with more for attractions and gas."
