Great location for sight seeing but you must take an Uber not walkable, very friendly helpful staff. However there is a dog daycare across the street and they started barking at 6 am . Also kinda scary homeless people in the area which is not at all walkable . But Phil’s BBQ is5 min walk and we’ll worth it amazing food!

Fantastic staff work here. From the very start, they welcomed me and helped me find fun things to do in San Diego. They had a whole packet, gave me restaurant recommendations, it was stellar. The rooms were clean and well kept. I dropped the tongs at the breakfast buffet and someone heard it, appeared at my side and replaced them. We had just come from the Legoland resort and let me tell you, the Holiday Inn Express was leaps and bounds better in every way. The staff were better, rooms were cleaner, and cost was so much lower. Thank you for an amazing trip!
