### Hyatt Vacation Club at The Welk, San Diego Area

8/10 Good

"I took my two sons for a quick getaway. They loved the pool, game room, and slides. Everyone was friendly and the staff were very nice. There are not a lot of food options on the resort, so come prepared to stock up your fridge or to go out for most of your meals. Fortunately, there are great food options in Escondido."

4/10 Poor

"Overpriced. Describes itself as a resort and charges a nightly resort fee on top of a parking fee. its pretty much a motel with a pool that happens to be in a good location. save your money, there are plenty of hotels for half the price that are as good or better and dont charge a parking fee."
