Hard Rock Hotel San Diego

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"Parking at $70 per day is too much"

The Dana on Mission Bay

2/10 Terrible

"Found a roach in our room by the middle table. Called the front desk and sent someone to spray the walls and said call me if you see it again since the roach came out when we turned on the lights and went and hid behind the middle table. We were unable to sleep comfortably thinking the roach was going to crawl up the or even worse in our luggage. Slept with the lights on. I wish they could have at least moved us to another room. There were spider webs in the corner of the walls by the ac, will not be staying here anymore"

Sheraton San Diego Resort

8/10 Good

"The stay itself was pleasant. We didn't get to use the amenities that the resort fee covered other than the pool. The view from both sides was nice. We had a view of the airport which was fun for my plane-loving son and me. The room was well-insulated so the airport noise was minimal. Everything seemed well-maintained and the staff members were very nice. Parking is expensive at $55 a day, but at least there were spots available each time. What I didn't enjoy was being charged more than the closing receipt amount (which included the $105 in fees each day), leaving a voicemail, and having no one respond for several days after which I called again. Seems shady to be charged more without a separate folio showing why. I understand being responsible for more charges but not secretly. Turns out they added a $46 a day charge for my 10 year old being "an adult" even though he was added to the room at booking with that age. Bizarre and not relayed as an accident but ultimately recovered."
