Comfort Inn SeaWorld Area

Misson Bay / Loma Heights San Diego|0.7km from San Diego River
Good budget room. Comfortable. Perfectly adequate for a one night stay, nothing flash but I wasn't expecting it to be. Wouldn't walk the area at night due to the number of homeless but fine to walk to the shops in daylight (mind crossing the busy roads). Staff friendly and helpful.

Wyndham Garden San Diego

Misson Bay / Loma Heights San Diego|0.78km from San Diego River
Great value for a budget traveler. Older motel-style property, but well-maintained with modernized furnishings and bathrooms. Comfortable beds that compare with my more common Marriott stays. I found my room lighting to be a bit disappointing (too dim), no breakfast option, but there are several nearby diners and a Vons supermarket are within 5 mins walking distance. The location is not central to much unless there’s a sports event at the arena, but it’s easy to get places by Uber or a pretty decent mass transit network (if you have the time…. As it could double or triple your travel time) The MTS route 8 bus stops right out front. We went all the way to Torrey Pines Beach for $2.50 each way (bus 8 to Old Town, blue trolley toward UTC, then the 101 to Torrey Pines State Park for a hike with great views!). And, in only about 60-70 mins, and we’re able to fit in a trip to LaJolla cove on the way back.I

Heritage Inn San Diego

Misson Bay / Loma Heights San Diego|0.87km from San Diego River
The location is a bit biased. The price is OK. Breakfast and its simplicity. There is no need to set a room with meals. It was the most rudimentary breakfast on the Western Front. In addition, the room was not clean. There are bed bugs. Bitten. Not recommended.

Howard Johnson by Wyndham San Diego Sea World

Misson Bay / Loma Heights San Diego|1.35km from San Diego River
It is a very general American motel, with poor ventilation and a little taste. The male receptionist at the front desk is still nice. There are supermarkets, discount stores, gas stations around, it is more convenient.

For a colleague, display the pre-authorization. As a result, the credit card shows consumption. Colleagues at the front desk are also paying. It has been three months since now, and I have not returned the cost of the card before returning. Still studying how to

The hotel is not closed management, the rooms are open around the parking lot. The facilities are quite old, especially the air conditioner, like a tractor. Fortunately, the room is clean. Breakfast is eaten in the lobby, very simple.

Misson Bay / Loma Heights
At first glance, the hotel, as its name suggests, has a history, but it is well maintained and decorated. The location is close to the old city station, the traffic is very convenient, and the airport is not far away. There is actually a swimming pool in the hotel. Although it is a bit cool now, it is still quite surprised.

In the middle of the night, I want a toothbrush to go to the lobby and say that I was taken by other households. I have to wait until 6 in the morning. The parking lot elevator has also been broken and has been repaired. I don't know if I am bad luck or the hotel itself.

San Diego Old Town
There is a complimentary breakfast voucher, Western breakfast, ok. The hotel is traditional Spanish and has a very nice look. The location is very close to the airport in the old town. The old town itself is an attraction. The bars, restaurants and specialty shops are very interesting and very lively at night. I had a good meal with my boyfriend at a Mexican restaurant near the Sheriff Museum. The room itself is large enough but soundproof. American hotel guests should bring their own slippers and toothbrushes because the hotel generally does not provide these.
