The Dana on Mission Bay

The Dana on Mission Bay

10/10 Excellent
"The room was very clean and had a lovely patio for us to sit out and look out over the beautiful grounds. The landscaping is fantastic and the location is serene. I would suggest looking over several booking sources prior to making a reservation, however. When I called the hotel directly, they gave me one rate for what they said was their last remaining room and then I see that exact same room still for sale on Expedia for substantially less per night. Also be aware that if you want to check out after 12 noon they wanna charge a late checkout fee. I felt that was rather unfriendly. Other than that, this is a beautiful resort and you will have a wonderful time."
