Hyatt Vacation Club at The Welk, San Diego Area
The resort was beautiful. If you are traveling just to get away, they have a lot to do on the resort itself. Villa suite was huge, beautiful, and clean. Downside is upon checking in at around 8pm, there was a HUGE line to check in that lasted over and hr long.

Handlery Hotel
Clean sheets, bathroom clean, old small room, water hot, old tub and layout, and fan does not work. Not many convention guests stayed. Friendly staff, average $15 breakfast for hotel stay, food fresh but meager bread serving...average to good limited food choices and small cafes. Great people smiles ...
