Top La Mesa Hotel Reviews

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

10/10 Excellent
"The rooms are spacious and well kept. The staff is friendly, courteous, and helpful. Favorite part of staying here is the location. Fantastic bay view, great parking and easy to get in and out of it. It’s walking distance to little Italy and to the Metro if you wish to leave your car and visit Old Town. "
