Mission Beach
8.0 out of 10, Very good, (2 reviews)
"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."

Crowne Plaza San Diego - Mission Valley by IHG

Crowne Plaza San Diego - Mission Valley by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"I recently stayed here on a one night trip to San Diego to see a friend. The property is massive, very well maintained by staff. From check-in to check-out, things ran smoothly, the room was big and comfortable and clean. Fair warning the property is massive so it was a bit of a maze to try to find my room when I first arrived. They have a beautiful courtyard along with an amazing swimming pool right smack in the middle of the hotel which was beautiful. Few minor little things that I think the hotel could look at to improve it and make it that much better would be: The shower in my room was not very hot during my stay which was kind of weird, it was lukewarm at best. Secondly, I had notified Front desk and they approved a late check out for me, however house keeping the morning of departure decided to knock twice in under a hour even after I told the front desk and got approval for the late checkout. So maybe better communication between the front desk and the housekeeping staff. Overall though I would recommend this property, just be aware they do charge for overnight parking, which I have mixed feelings about. They should implement a visitor parking so that people who are just here to visit can park free of charge. It is $5 USD per hour."
