The Del is a Hilton property, if you have HHonors it’s well worth a stay on points. The cash rate is a bit much, but on points? I love staying there. Alls it takes is a Hilton Amex and committing to staying at Hampton Inns, Hilton Garden Inns, etc instead of other brands for a bit and you would be surprised how quickly you get enough points to cash them in.Haven't made it to Old Town yet but it's on the list, as is Hotel Del Coronado.
