The Encinitan Hotel & Suites

The Encinitan Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent
"The always underappreciated cleaning staff-(which I generally reject any cleaning services til I check out- so they have less work and maybe a few more minutes of time for themselves, deserve appreciation for the quality cleaning you can't help notice upon arrival. I always try to leave a small gratuity from $5 to $10 dollars- not much by itself, but if most Hotelers gave a little it would b so helpful to them .Great location and amenities"
