Great vacation

Just starting to know our way around San Diego and the hotel location made it easy to get to all the destinations we had planned to visit during our anniversary. I will definitely come back to this hotel.

Good location. Easy to get to.

We were in San Diego meeting with relatives who were staying in an upscale hotel, I have stayed at this Best Western hotel alone before and liked its location and service enough to choose it for my family, also it is half the price of the upscale hotel. In comparison, the upscale charged extra for everything, wi-fi, extra towels, etc. Also they had no continental breakfast and the family restaurant they had closed at 2pm. The Best Western had free wi-fi and included a continental breakfast. Maid service was good and friendly, although there is no on site restaurant, it is quick walking distance to several. Also close by is a market and since the room had a microwave and refrigerator this worked out great! I would stay here again!

Money-saving tip: Short drive from hotel

For the price of this hotel, it is only a short drive to most things in and around San Diego. It is only about a 5min drive to Sea World, and maybe 10min to downtown and Old Town. Also the Point Loma Lighthouse and beaches are close.

San Diego hotel near airport

My only complaint was the reluctance on the part of the hotel staff to give me Best Western Gold Member credit for staying at the hotel. They objected because I reserved this hotel through[...]. They did finally relent after I insisted they give me credit. Elevator carpet needed to be replaced.

ok for a night or two

We went with two other couples. [...] Their rooms were almost twice the size. They had great prices on their rooms. Our room was so small there was no room to set a suitcase on a stand - we used the desktop, and there was only one chair. [...]The location was easy to access from the airport and downtown San Diego.The desk and maintainence staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast staff were cold and unwelcoming. The food choices were very low cost and sparce. Tables were not cleaned except by fellow travelers.It was noisy. The walls must be thin. Don't think about sleeping late.[...]
