"This three-bedroom two bath house was perfect for our stay. It was clean and well-furnished and, while there were only two people for the stay, it could sleep up to nine. It was comfortable and there was street parking available. There was a great view of the sunset. We chose a house over a hotel because we needed a full-sized refrigerator and this rental met our needs. The location was convenient to the airport (you can hear the planes) and convention center and just a few blocks from Little...

Top Central San Diego Hotel Reviews

San Diego Marriott Mission Valley

8/10 Good

"The location of this hotel was great. It was near a shopping center and close to the freeway. The parking was a little challenging because the spaces are really small. Many people would take up 2 spaces, but found out our last night there is overflow parking in the back of the hotel. Our first night none of our outlets were working, including a refrigerator. We had to charge our phones in the bathroom. I called the front desk in the morning and they sent someone up right away. The maintenance worker checked the outlets and fixed them. The staff was really friendly and helpful even with"

Days Inn by Wyndham San Diego Hotel Circle

8/10 Good

"Room was clean, betting was clean and comfortable. The shower needs an updating Tile grout has stains. fixtures are quite old. Bathroom area needs an updating. The carpet to the entry door does not seal completely. Light was coming through. Had to use a towel to block lighting. Window could also use better darkening curtains. Other guests close to us coming in and out letting go of the door which caused a loud slam. Woke us up a couple times at night. Also late night talking outside was not good."

The room was everything we needed for 1 night and the perfect location for the shopping mall/food and also the attractions down at the dock area. The best and most surprising element of the hotel was the variety and quality of the breakfast."
