Paradise Point Resort & Spa
Definitely a family/children focused property. Lots and lots of kids. Walls are thin to adjacent room. Room was basic. Resort fee was overpriced. Grounds are pretty. Staff friendly.

Days Inn by Wyndham San Diego Hotel Circle
4/5 Comfortable beds, nice heated pool and hot tub, workout room was very tiny and crappy worn out equipment. The pictures online showed a different picture of workout room. Was very disappointed it was like a small closet not enough room to workout in at all.
