Handlery Hotel

Handlery Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This was my first time staying at the Handlery Hotel and it definitely won't be my last. By far, my best stay in San Diego, and Ive stayed in San Diego many times.. The hotel itself is super central to all the San Diego attractions, 8 minute drive to the beach, right off the freeway, but tucked away safe and private from the main street.The staff was super nice and helpful, gated and ample parking and entrances to front desk, pool, etc., my room was beautiful, with a big balcony facing the pool, but with some privacy, comfy bed, and super clean! I also loved the different options of places to eat within a few feet from my room! The Reef Lounge was my favorite. Great food & drink and vibes! Looking forward to my stay next year!"
