Americas Best Value Inn-San Diego Downtown - San Diego

The hotel was perfect for my weekend stay. I ran in the rock n roll marathon and it was less than a mile away from the starting line, and not too far from the finish line. Only downfall was there was loud street noise and you could hear the airplanes coming in at all hours, but once asleep it wasn't a problem. There is also no parking lot or valet available […] to it's good to keep in mind you will have to pay for parking or if you get lucky you can find parking close by in the residential neighborhood.

This hotel was pretty affordable, especially considering its proximity to the airport, but there was no off-street parking available through the hotel and the lot across the street was $12/day. The neighborhood was also a bit shady, so I don't think I would've been comfortable walking to my car alone at night. The room was very clean, although also […] very tiny. I think this hotel would be best suited for someone traveling for a business trip. Read more

This was my first trip to San Diego & didn't know anything about the area. The walls are thin between rooms & if you're a light sleeper the air traffic is notable. The hotel is clean & staff friendly. Parking is tight but I didn't have problems finding an, though the lot across the street is pricy - not out of average for the Gas Lamp District which […] is several blocks away. Overall knowing what to expect I was very satisfied with my stay & the cost. Read more

just a room to sleep in.

Decided to stay an extra night in SD, booked this place at a great rate. Rooms are a little small including the beds and its near the airport, but other than that the service was excellent and for the price it exceeded my expectations. Will recomend, walking distance from the beach AND gaslamp district.

I used to live in the neighborhood, so Im used to the environment. The hotel wasn't bad at all. Very quiet and clean. The only problems I had, was the iron. It leaked water very bad. But as soon as I took it to the front desk, they replaced it with a brand new one, on the spot. The other problem is that, they dont have parking. You have to circle a […] few blocks to find a decent spot. If you're lucky you will find one without parking meters. Overall it wasnt a bad hotel, for such a decent price. I would go there again, if I needed to. Read more

I have stayed here before and always enjoyed it. It IS under the flight path and can be loud, but that stops at night and with the A/C on you don't really hear it. Also it's a little further walk from Gas Lamp, so be prepared to walk-even up and down hills. Rooms are very nice and front desk gave me water and fruit!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Good location, no parking, some of the front desk people are not helpful.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Overall it was ok. The only two things I didn't like was that the hotel has no parking of its own so we had to park on the street and that in the morning we realized the curtains were very thin because the sun was in our face even when we closed them all the way. Other than that it was a pleasant stay. We would stay there again since it was close to […] the airport Read more

Within walking distance of harbor, gas lamp area and Balboa Park. Lots of noise from airplanes landing every 2-3 minutes. Nice courtyard with fountain, plantings and benches. Bagels, muffins, jjuice, instant oatmeal, fruit all available for breakfast. Coffee maker and refrigerator in the room. Small rooms but comfortable.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It was a good value. Low price, but a few warts, none of which caused me a problem, am a frequent traveler. Very nice courtyard. My room was very small. Hotel is in the flight path, very close to airport. No noise inside my 4th floor room, and I slept with the window open. Pretty noticeable out on the street, but that wasn't an impact. Very convenient, […] walked to the Harbor, to Balboa park, and special bonus, no problem with finding free street parking, it was all over within 1--2 blocks, weekend or weekday. Read more

Very cute boutique hotel in the hillside district of downtown. Open courtyard provides starry nights and beautiful tropical foliage. The room had a cute kitchenette and up to date bathroom. Check-in desk and lobby are of deco design. Near the San Diego trolley stop. Very romantic hotel for Downtown visit.

This hotel is okay. I mean its in a good location, the service is good. The walls are super thin though, you can hear the business of the people next door. I mean all of it -____-

Staff unfriendly, room dirty and worn.

I've stayed here twice.. its nice for the price and its a $8 cab ride to Horton Plaza.. can't beat it.

Nice hotel nice polite staff rooms were smaller than I expected had to pay 12$ per night to park my car free breakfast was nice

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I had a pleasant experience, the location of the hotel was easy to find with my gps. Bobby who checked me in was most helpful in getting me decaf coffee and directing me to the closest grocery store.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Bobbie the front desk attendant was great. He did everything he could to make our stay as positive as possible.The hotel was apartments at one time so the units are smaller and the sink is in the kitchenette. The price was less than half the other hotels in the down town San Diego area.It has no on site parking or a pool but it was very clean and safe.Plus […] a free simple breakfast. Bring ear plugs as it is under the approach to SAN airport and you should have a very pleasant stay. The heating and cooling were both perfect. Book well in advance as it sells our quickly..

went for my boyfriends birthday weekend to hang out in the Gaslamp District. The bonuses are locations decent, customer service was good and there was a refrig and microwave and it was nice and clean but very very small rooms and the very small parking lot across the street was expensive and if you plan on leaving at all plan to get a cab.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

parking sucks! $12 across the street at a small parking lot that fills up nightly, get in early. street parking is ok on grey curbs, but most curb side parking is metered. second thing that sucks is the hotel is in the line of the airport runway, so any planes taking off come straight over the hotel, noisey! other then that the place is decent and clean […] for the price, location is great too.

Room was clean, good location. Small room by final approach for San Diego airport. I would defiantly go back for right price.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The rooms need a good deep cleaning and maybe some paint and cocking. The bathroom was the smallest I've ever seen and it was complicated for 2 skinny people to move around in the room. One of the smallest if not the smallest room I've ever stayed in. Nice workers and looks clean from the outside.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

When we first got to the hotel I wished we were staying somewhere else -- some of the people hanging around the hotel seemed to be a bit sketchy. But the room seemed pretty clean. We were right under the flight path, but surprisingly didn't wake up from any planes. I'm not sure I'd stay here again, but it is incredibly close to the airport (without […] being too close), if that's what you are looking for. Read more

There was no parking. Only street parking or you had to pay $12 to park in a lot across the street. The front desk clerk was rude and acted like she didn't like her job. There was no sink in the bathroom, it was in the hallway by the door to get into the room. I felt like I was in a druggy neighborhood. Will never stay here again. It should have been […] a quarter of the price Read more

You legitimately get what you pay for, however, it's a CHEAP cab to Gaslamp.. Pack your own blankets (ehhhwwww).

I posted a very long and detailed review on a popular review site but thought I'd write a short one here as well. This hotel is disgusting- from the musky smelling air to the stained and ripped bed linens. This was by far the worst experience I have ever had at a hotel. I tried speaking with the hotel manager, Neil, who was very uninterested in being […] of any help. When I asked for a contact at corporate or his supervisor I was told that "I am the manager and I am not giving you that information." For anybody who is considering a stay here I highly suggest reading reviews from sites that allow longer and more detailed reviews. Words can not begin to explain my disappointment and frustration.

For the price, I think it was worth it. Although, you get the bare essentials, the room and the grounds look well-maintained. The only major problem I had was the low pressure of the shower. There's paid parking across the street from the hotel...$12 for 24hrs parking, $6 for 6hours. The location of the hotel was ideal to major attractions in the downtown […] area. Read more

We never spend much time in our hotel on any vacation, so I have a hard time spending a lot of money on a room. I usually have an expectation of being disappointed with something. Not the case here!! Room was spotless (but very small), bed and pillows were SO coomfortable and the price was perfect. The only improvements that could be made was PARKING, […] there is NONE. We had to pay to park and a friendlier front desk. I almost felt as if I were an annoyance to them. Not very friendly. Overall, very happy and will return!! Read more

Have to pay to park. Other than that the stay was pleasant, clean and a great value. $14 cab fare to downtown.

This is a great little hotel... a very, very good value if you are looking for an inexpensive but clean and safe downtown hotel. I will certainly stay there again!

This is a great value for the price especially in the inflated San Diego near- downtown options for accommodations Airplane noise, but that's true of all of San Diego.

I picked the hotel based on the pictures. It look great in the website pics. But as soon as I arrived I had second and third thoughts. The surrounding area looked good. But as I approached the hotel. Pan handler asked for money. The lobby was small. I asked for an early check in. The clerk did do this. When I got to my room. I sat down on a very hard […] bed. The window was open to the street(which was very busy and noisy) I closed the window for some peace and quite. I soon found out why it was open. room had a very moldy smell. The carpet needed to be cleaned and the bathroom had been cleaned but really needed what my mom would have called a deep cleaning. The set up left a lot to be desired. One sink which served for both bathroom and mini kitchen. I could go on but lets just say won't be staying there again. Read more

Yes, rooms are small, but super functional and have everything you need. Complimentary breakfast is quite impressive for this price. You can walk to a lot of cool places (Little Italy, Balboa Park, Dowtown, Hillcrest). Would definitely stay there again for that price.

Room is very petite with little walking space. Good points: very affordable, close to gas lamp and free breakfast (pastries and bagels)

I would stay here again. Breakfast was good. I didnt like how when people open their room, it sounds like they are opening my room. I dont mind the sound of occasional airplanes.

I did not like that you guys did not offer parking and if you did the guy in the front did not mention it to me. It was my first time in San Diego so I did not know many things and when I asked the guy in the front he gave me short annoyed answers.

This Budget Inn was perfect for my budget standards. The whole inn was spotless. Although not near convention center, it is close to Balboa Park attractions, and to 5th Ave trolley station. Drawback is noise from landing jets from 6 AM to 10:30 PM. But most guests are gone during those hours. No free parking from 8 to 8. Good wifi service.
