Handlery Hotel

Handlery Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"I had a good stay at the Handlery Hotel. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. There wasn’t much of a view, but overall, it was a good place to stay for the night and felt better than some of the cheaper hotels I’ve stayed at. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to use the pool during my stay because it had to be closed after some kids had an accident in the pool. That was disappointing, but it wasn’t the hotel’s fault. One thing I really appreciated was the security. Guests need a room key to enter the building, which made me feel safe and comfortable during my stay. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and would consider staying here again."

The Atwood Hotel San Diego - SeaWorld/Zoo

10/10 Excellent
"We enjoyed our stay here! Right when we checked in the staff was friendly. Our room was spacious & clean. The bathroom was on the smaller side that’s the only negative if I had to say one thing. The hotel circle area is always a good location. I definitely recommend for a family stay. We loved the liquor store too for the convenience."
