San Diego Surprise
Great price for our 6 days in San Diego. We stayed in the Claremont Mesa area which was away from the beaches but it was no problem driving 15 minutes to the beach. The area had plenty of choices to choose from to eat out. There was road work going on but thats happening all over San Diego. Hotel staff was great and i would definitely stay there again.
