I suggest to any family that if you're looking for good vacation, San Diego is it. So much to do. Best Western Yacht Harbor hotel is great.

4/5 - Good

Parking was a nightmare. We went to the port to park for a whale watching tour and ended up spending 25 minutes looking for parking and then ended up paying $22 for 3 hours. The port itself was cool to see.
2/5 - Disappointing
Verified traveler
take a lot of small bills there will be a lot of tips from when you arrive till you leave. they don't let you unload your car yourself and they must take your stuff to your room and they will stand and wait for a tip and same as you leave. Happy hour they ask fo you r to tip for the drinks.
3/5 - Okay
