Paradise Point Resort & Spa
The deodorizer that was put in the room killed my sinuses which affected me the entire weekend. Oh sure what odor they were trying to kill but it was awful. The property looked very dated especially the grounds and door frames (looked that there had been some prior forced entrance in front door.

Marriott Vacation Club®, San Diego
The rooms were cute and clean. Staff was very friendly and informative. My only complaint is the pool was small, I wish I would have looked it up before we booked, I would have preferred an outdoor pool in SoCal.
