San Diego Mission Bay Resort

San Diego Mission Bay Resort

8/10 Good
"Overall, the resort was wonderful. We really enjoyed the pool and activities for kids. The room was big and also well maintained. Relatively affordable for the area. Just had some cons which is what lowered my rating. The room did not have a microwave and our TV was glitchy. The location on Mission Bay is not the best as there is nothing walkable (the active part of Mission Bay is on the other side). Fun hotel though."
