"There for 6 days on vacation. Was first given a card key to a room that was already occupied. Bathroom door was extremely squeaky. Door was taken care of after asking. Staff was very helpful. Had to ask for room clean and for towels."

Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego – Zoo/SeaWorld Area

8/10 Good
"We really enjoyed our stay overall. The hotel was comfortable, clean, and we had a very pleasant experience. There were just two things I didn’t particularly like. Breakfast is only served from 6:00 to 9:00 AM, which feels a little early when you’re on vacation and would like to sleep in. The biggest downside for me was the $20 per night parking fee. The hotel has plenty of parking spaces on its own property, so I don’t really understand why guests have to pay an additional fee just to park their car. In my opinion, parking should be included for hotel guests. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay and were happy with the hotel."

Bahia Resort Hotel

Bahia Resort Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"I had a very nice stay at the Bahia Resort Hotel and would definitely recommend it. The property itself is beautiful, and I really appreciated the free parking. I stayed in a garden-view room, which was clean, comfortable, and well kept. The staff throughout the resort were also very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. I especially appreciated how helpful Guest Services was. I needed to print a document during my stay, and all I had to do was email it to them. They printed it for me right away at no additional charge. There were a couple of unexpected inconveniences during my stay, but neither would prevent me from returning. Both restaurants had unfortunately run out of pastries, so gelato was pretty much the only dessert option available. The second happened in the middle of the night, at around 3:10 a.m., when the battery on the fire alarm ran out and the alarm became quite loud. However, I understand that things like this happen and are outside of the hotel’s control. I really appreciated how quickly they had security respond and take care of the issue. Overall, everything was great. The property is beautiful, and the beach looked especially nice at night. I arrived later in the evening and left the following morning, so I didn’t have a chance to enjoy the pool area or many of the other amenities the resort has to offer. Even though my stay was short, it was a very pleasant experience, and I would definitely consider staying here again."
