Holiday Inn Express San Diego Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Good place "

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

2/10 Terrible

"Room was dirty and AC was broken. They gave us a new room after we spoke with them. Then we went to open the door to the new room and heard people talking as I grabbed the door handle, two men walked out. I complained to the manager and he started arguing with me. This place has really gone down the toilet. Will NOT be staying there again."
