Paradise Point Resort & Spa
Wonderful place to stay. There were little things here and there (like a tear in our couch) that made me take a 2nd look. But besides that, it was a great trip. We will visit again.

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego
They charged $100 more than it was showing on hotels.com. Said it is mandatory resort fees. We were given a handicap room which was fine until showering. The floor design completely floods the entire bathroom floor. Front desk staff were rude when we asked about the extra charges. We will not stay ...
