Rancho Bernardo Inn
8/10 Good
"The aesthetic is beautiful but after checking in, the spa could use some updating.. The adult pool had undies on the floor, bandaids on the pool floor. Just felt more attention to detail would make this 5 star… a pool attendant and small bar in the adult area would be amazing instead of QR code"
Sonesta ES Suites Carmel Mountain – San Diego
10/10 Excellent
"Good place to stay. Large property tho. My only issue was that I asked for an accessible room (handicapped) and there were none when I checked in. The desk person told me to see if there was anything available the next day. While that was an ok suggestion, it wasnt very practical for me. I managed however with the room I got. It was spacious and quiet which suited me. The only suggestion I would have for the hotel is to either install no slip strips in the bathtubs (for those of us with mobility issues) or to include a rubberized bath mat. The tub was quite slippery and there was nothing other than the curtain rod to hang on to. Like I said, I managed and yes, I would stay here again."
