"The property was a nice property, but there was a problem with parking. I had no communication until 30 minutes before check-in even though I tried to contact the host numerous times and had Expedia tried to contact them and couldn’t get a hold of him. There is no air-conditioning which sucked because it was hot. All they have is fans and the shower is so tiny. That is very hard to shower, but it’s in a great location."

Days Inn by Wyndham San Diego Hotel Circle

10/10 Excellent
"It has everything that we needed. I like that they provide big bottles of shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion. There were a lot of towels. The AC was cool. It was nice and not as expensive. I like that we can be wet from the beach and be able to go to our rooms without going through a lobby."
