I went a few years ago and there were about 250 attendees. It definitely was a long week (and hard to sit in a classroom on the weekends in sunny San Diego) but the information received was well worth it if you are wanting to hear from the experts.
It's in a great location too. It's close to major shopping centers and there is even a movie theatre within walking distance from the hotel. Also the Trolley is right near the hotel too. The Greenline will take you right down to Fashion Valley Mall, Old Towne, Sea Port Village and Gas lamp quarter. So it's the perfect location to be if you want to see some of the sights when you have free time.
