San Diego Marriott La Jolla
Great convenient spot away from all the traffic madness of the village. Thomas at the front desk was outstanding. $40 parking and $40 breakfasts was ridiculous!

Easy check-in and great location for my business. Breakfast was solid and included - always a plus when you're travelling!

GreenTree Inn San Diego Mission Bay
The breakfast had minimal choices and the sausage were of low quality. The oatmeal was very watery. The room was clean and staff members were friendly. The toilet paper and Kleenex were one ply and really thin.
