10/10 Excellent
"Great location and great service. There is a daily resort fee - but you actually get something useful for the fee - free wine or soft drink each day, free sweet treat daily, and a daily food credit. Lobby bar has good atmosphere and good service"

Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

8/10 Good
"Hello. Our room was large and clean, and the view was lovely (the view of the harbor would have been even better had the construction of the pool area not been in view.) The door handle of the refrigerator was missing a screw so opening the appliance was difficult. Navigating the television menu and accessing room service online was a nightmare - it was impossible to order food online and access Netflix. Guests ought to be able to access room service online through the hotel in service television network. The parking lot was dark - it can use more lighting especially at night. The breakfast buffet offered at Sally's by the Harbor is expensive - patrons should have the option to purchasing breakfast items à la carte instead of $50 per guest for breakfast."
