San Diego itself is a beautiful city. The beaches are wonderful and there are plenty of other activities from the zoo and aquarium to shopping and restaurants all over. It can be expensive though especially if you're driving across the city every day

A lovely city to walk around with lots of variety and places to go. The Aircraft carrier Midway was fascinating. In complete contrast Marston House was a little gem with a great guided tour. Balboa park is close by and we loved the whole Bay Area.

We were glad to have decided on using ride share apps rather than renting a car in the traffic. Prices at most places are steep, but that's generally to be expected. Dec. Nights event, Zoo, Harbor tour, USS Midway, and Taylor Guitar tour were fun.

We visited Coronado Island, Seaworld, Balboa Park, the Midway, historic Decatur district, shopping everywhere. The Seaworld animal shows were worth the visit, but the food and drink were below par and very expensive. All the rest were great!

"Property is close to many surrounding areas zoo , SeaWorld, beach etc. very nice staff and helpful. Would recommend for families or even a getaway . Unti"
"While it’s an older property, I love The Handlery, I stay here often. The bar/lounge is a hidden gem. The pool area is as pretty as the pictures. And the price is usually very reasonable. Will continue to come back!"
"The hotel is really good but there are lots of surcharges that makes me decide not to go back in this hotel. Embassy Suite is always nice, but this branch is the least on my lists. "
