"Ok to stay"

Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

8/10 Good

"Room was excellent, very comfortable and stylish. Ordering for room delivery a little complicated; QR code on menu linked to multiple webpages that were not intuitive nor included breakfast ordering options- tried ordering at dinner too and webpage would not allow order to be placed- ended up calling in order both times. Dismayed main pool area was completely under construction in August, and they started at 8am, so no sleeping in. Other than that, very pleasant stay"
