San Diego the party town. My cousin & I wanted to stay close to the bars, bistros, lounges (4th and 5th Ave) so that we could walk there (15 mins walk). At the same time we were girls on a tight budget. Besides we knew we were not going to stay in the room so why splurge! Read some reviews and this seemed like a decent spot for our 3 nights.
Well YES it was close to the party places. BUT we could not stand the constant loud noise you get from the planes landing. The planes landing at San Diego airport literally fly above the Inn. I mean we have learnt that San Diego is not a quiet airport! It will keep you awake. The planes stop late in the middle of the night & resumes early in the morning. Shutting windows tight does not help. The airport is 5-10 drive away. We had our room by the 4th Ave and so there is, little but still, traffic. Walls are thin so noise easily make its way. In fact we could hear the TV of our neighbours when we were in our beds. To us, this was very disturbing factor, which didnt please us at all.
It is a clean & decent stay otherwise, for a budget traveler. The staff were polite and approachable. There is complimentary breakfast provided. Given the good points, I am very sure one can find better places - close to the party area and away from the road & the planes! So I say keep looking around (unless you are a heavy sleeper).
