"Hotel was ok."
Philip B, 07 Août 2026

Hotel room was spacious and clean. The only downside to this hotel is breakfast time and parking. Breakfast on the 4th floor is carnage! No matter what time you went there were hoardes of people there and no many tables to cater for them. Breakfast is limited and while we were there the hot options consisted of sausages, egg and potatoes one day, bacon egg and potatoes the next and the final day they only had eggs.

"Simple But Good Alternative"
kmsandrbs, 30 Juillet 2026

We stayed here for four nights for Comic Con 2026. Because of that, our experience was mostly late at night and in the morning. We did not use the pool or fitness center, nor eat in the nearby area. When checking in, there was apparently a miscue and we were checked in under the wrong reservation. This resulted in a phone call from the desk and a visit by security that evening, but the issue was resolved satisfactorily. The hotel and room were clean, bathroom amenities fine. The fridge was very cold, though a little loud for those who have noise concerns. You could also occasionally hear the nearby freeway noise. Not enough to bother me, but could be an issue for some. The hotel does provide complimentary ear plugs (there was a note about this in our room). Air conditioning worked enough (we did have to set the bottom of the curtains on the window sill so the AC was not just blowing behind the curtains). As others have noted, several of the outlets are very loose, but they worked. Breakfast varied slightly, but was waffles each day (with I think 7 waffle makers, which I thought was great, and a waffle-flavor-of-the-day available), sausage or bacon, potatoes, eggs (scrambled or pre-made cheese omelettes), oatmeal, toast, for hot food , and yogurt, cereal, apples, oranges, and muffins. Coffee/juice/milk. I thought the breakfast was good. A small improvement would be to have salsa (and cheese on days without the cheese omelette). We did not have any issues with people who were homeless and did not have concerns about security. A specific issue for Comic-Con. The hotel was listed as being on a shuttle route but what that meant was you could walk to a nearby hotel (5 minute walk) to catch the shuttle. This would have been a non-issue except that only half of the walk had a sidewalk, and the remainder was walking in the bike lane. This was okay but not great, and I think useful for future Con goers to consider, especially if bringing young children. On the plus side, the shuttle stop was the second pick-up stop so we did not have to worry, generally, about shuttles being full when they arrived. I would consider staying here for the Con again in the future.

"Great hotel"
Cynthia C, 11 Mai 2026

Absolutely a fantastic hotel with the most helpful staff,and fabulous breakfast..

"You can't put lipstick on a pig."
Barry L, 08 Mai 2026

Great staff. Did the best with what they had to work with. Horrible rooms. Bad lighting. Mattresses were so very soft. Checked two other rooms to possibly change but just as bad. Breakfast lacked choices and eggs were ice cold. Park on the street - safer than maneuvering parking garage or front parking lot.

"Good hotel in good location"
Nancy C, 30 Avril 2026

This was a great location. The room was clean. Staff was very friendly. Parking lot spaces were tight and cost $26 per night. There was not a microwave in the room but one was available for use in the lobby. I would stay there again if I come back to San Diego

"Horrible"
Rose B, 24 Mars 2026

Horrible alot of homeless breaking into cars

Owner Response, 24 Mars 2026

You did not seem to stay at the hotel, your reservation is nowhere to be found.

"Very disappointing stay with multiple issues and poor conditions"
Nekenzie J, 19 Mars 2026

This was a very disappointing stay. The hotel is currently under construction, which was not disclosed before booking and only mentioned at check-in. Our room was placed directly next to construction, making it noisy and uncomfortable. The room had multiple issues. The shower only had lukewarm water. The pullout couch was extremely uncomfortable—you could feel the springs and metal bars—and it had crumbs on it when opened. No pillows were provided for the pullout couch until we asked, and we were denied additional pillows beyond two flat ones. Only one small, worn blanket was provided, with no comforter. Parking was very limited because the garage is filled with construction equipment. The elevator was in poor condition, covered with cardboard and duct tape, and it got stuck on the second floor, forcing me to carry two 50 lb suitcases down the stairs. Overall, the lack of transparency, cleanliness, comfort, and proper accommodations made for a very frustrating experience.

Owner Response, 19 Mars 2026

Thank you we are doing updates to the rooms in a small way at this time but 2026-2027 the improvements will make a great difference. This process will make sure all guests continue to have a wonderful day now and in the future. Yes, just by contact the Front Desk staff day or night amenities that the hotel provides can be brought to your room. Thank you again for your feed, please travel safely!

"Wonderful Hotel"
Kerry S, 22 Janvier 2026

Very clean and staff is very friendly, our family will definitely be back! Great breakfast!! The rooms are very large compared to alot of hotels we have stayed in the past.

"Amazing experience"
Patricia S, 08 Janvier 2026

Absolutely amazing place to visit staff is friendly accommodating very nice greet you upon arrival greet you whenever you come down to the lobby would highly recommend this hotel. I stayed there with my daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren, and we had an absolutely amazing time.

"Christmas 2025"
Robert S, 29 Décembre 2025

I had reserved a 2 night stay; however we couldn't check in the first night because they overbooked the rooms and no 2 queen rooms were available. Had to go somewhere else that night. Was able to check in the next day. The room was fine but no hot water in sink but the shower had hot water. They did comp my parking for the one night stay.

"Quiet Street"
timonadventure, 27 Décembre 2025

Nice room. Convenient and quiet neighborhood. Front desk is eager to sell parking for 26 bucks a night. Parking is available in front of the hotel for free on the street. Nice outdoor pool and heated.

"Cancel Policy Poor"
Tom N, 20 Décembre 2025

This hotel has a variable cancellation policy. 1 week before my actual visit, I had to cancel the reservation. I did so within the 24 hr window, but the policy did not specify it had to be 24 hrs before 4pm. The hotel refused to remove my credit card charge for that 1st night and even refused to speak with the manager in person. The next week, during my actual visit the cancel policy was changed to 24 hrs before 6pm but did not have to use it. They also gave me a hard time about the San Diego occupancy tax exemption and did not email me a receipt after checkout like they promised. I would caution against this hotel if you think you need to delay or cancel your trip.

"I felt safe and secured at Best Western"
Katie H, 15 Novembre 2025

The grounds is well kept. Pool area was clean. Room was clean.. There was enough towels. The water was hot. Nice cozy bed!

"Highly recommended."
Craig D, 28 Octobre 2025

Housekeeping needs to pay better attention. First night body wash dispenser was empty. Then on the 3rd night no wash cloths were provided. Excellent location. Reasonable price. Good breakfast. We were able to check in early. And we were upgraded. Provided restaurant suggestions which was very helpful.

"The good and the bad"
Ken H, 20 Octobre 2025

Room was fine, staff was helpful and friendly. WiFi was not working in our room the last two days. Breakfast was inconsistent. 2 nights were quiet, two nights there was loud yelling outside, noise from room above us until 1:00am.

"Hotel Stay"
Michael G, 17 Octobre 2025

Very easy check in process and comfy rooms the bathroom fan didn't seem like it worked and the toilets kept clogging maybe get newer ones overall great experience.

"Great stay in San Diego!"
jgougler, 16 Octobre 2025

Great location! Easy access to Seaworld, San Diego Zoo, restaurants, beaches. The hotel is older BUT very clean and comfortable. Super friendly staff as well. We really enjoyed our stay!

"Phenomenal for Families"
Randell J, 15 Octobre 2025

It was located perfectly for what we were in town for. We came to visit the Beach, SeaWorld and the ocean. It was a great place. The room was clean and spacious for the 4 of us. My family loved it. We researched and researched and finally found this place the price was great with the topping on the cake that it offered a complementary breakfast. The only problem was that if you did not get to breakfast before 8am the proteins were all gone and most of the other food.

"Another great stay."
Mckail R, 14 Octobre 2025

This is the second time we've stayed here. It's been great both times! The room was clean and it was nice to have it refreshed daily. Very kind and welcoming employees.

"Overnight sea world trip"
Amie N, 05 Octobre 2025

Thought hotel was very clean, great staff, the food was great. The pool could have been warmer but that's just nit picking. Overall great experience!

"Amazing staff. Nice clean rooms. Breakfast starts a little late not until 0630. Missed everyday due to conference schedu"

"Love best western"
William B, 24 Septembre 2025

The staff was amazing. The room was very nice. The breakfast was the same both days. Scrambled eggs and sausage.one day waffles, one day pancakes.no cheese, no hash browns. No salsa Kinda depressing 😕 😞.

"The best"
Diego J, 24 Septembre 2025

Comfort and excellence, was a great and relaxing stay. The complimentary breakfast is a definite plus. I will definitely be saying again.

"Bachelorette trip"
Amanda m, 16 Septembre 2025

It was nice the queen bed with the pull out couch was the perfect amount of space for me and my friends! We slept super well on the bed but the fact parking isn't included in the overall price kinda sucks

"Best Western San Diego zoo/SeaWorld inn and suites"
jmjamesnathan, 15 Septembre 2025

Good overall hotel, with good amenities. The only suggestion I would make would be to have a limited breakfast available for guests earlier than 6:30. As for individuals like myself who have to be to work by 7:00, there's no time to eat breakfast.

Owner Response, 15 Septembre 2025

Thank you for your review, we are delighted to inform you that there will be a change to the breakfast ours during the week. This change will take place mid October.

"Manager created a threatening environment"
Nickolai W, 14 Septembre 2025

We stayed fr 4 days. First morning no breakfast available prior to 10am. 2nd day the breakfast room door locked out many guests. Door eventually opened by another guest. Next day fire alarm disrupted ALL guests and we were not informed of this test. Same day internet and TV service went out and stayed out for over 24 hours and the service stopped abruptly Zt 10pm, and again remained out for well over 24 hours.When we spoke to DON the manager at 240pm that day he said if we didn't like it we could leave ant 3pm. Literally in 20 minutes. He was loud and aggressive verbally and said I threatened the staff. He then ran our credit card, and let us know that we HAD to leave HIS hotel the next day. No other compensation would be given.

Owner Response, 14 Septembre 2025

Dear nickilaiw2025 Thank you for your review and feedback, your comments are certainly concerning. We are in the processed of updating our TV service which we made all guest aware of by leaving letters in the room, as for the breakfast I do apologize if the access may be misleading since it is on the 4th floor. I will check with the breakfast staff about the opening hours, as for the manager you have spoken to we do not have anyone working at this property by the name of Don.

"Will Definitely Stay Here Again"
KERI J, 06 Septembre 2025

This hotel was in a great location and the cost per night was a bargain. Restaurants are only a few blocks away, easy walking distance. We also easily walked to catch the trolley. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. We heard no noise from the other rooms. The manager was super friendly and helpful. I will definitely stay here again.

"GROUP TRAVEL - DO NOT USE! (If you want to be guaranteed you'll have a place to stay, stay at another hotel)"
dustinrmulkey, 04 Août 2025

I have refrained from giving a review for a couple of days to let my frustration level settle. I led a team of 20 to stay in the area for several days, and the night before traveling home we reserved 5 double bed/bunk bed suites. Three team member arrived earlier to check in, but wasn't allowed to check in all rooms although we had been assured from an earlier phone call they were added to the reservation and could check in. The rest of the group arrived late that evening and were greeted by an employee informing us that our rooms were no longer as they overbooked. In conversations with her manager he gaslit us saying we should have booked through their group travel and this wouldn't have happened, even though I had booked the reservation months ago directly through their hotel staff/website. In none of our interactions with the front desk or management were we offered any assistance in finding new accommodations. We weren't even able to be refunded the one room we were able to check into so our group could stay together elsewhere. This was the least hospitable experience I've ever had. For the one room that was usable, the hotel was fine. There were a few bugs found, including in the dining area during breakfast, but otherwise it was a typical hotel stay.

"Electric socket should be renew."

Water pressure was low. Socket were almost fail, not firm attached so not good for electrical equipment. Air conditioner was noisy.

Kym W, 20 Juillet 2025

The room was amazing, with very comfortable beds. The staff was awesome, very accommodating. Thank you for helping make our weekend getaway a great one.

"Avoid if possible"
Edward S, 17 Juillet 2025

If you choose this hotel make sure you are on side facing local street. Otherwise the freeway noise is unbearable. Also don't plan on using sofa bed as the mattress is all metal springs no padding. Cheap beyond belief. Staff fruit and helpful.

"Needs upgrades and improvements"
Anne P, 13 Juillet 2025

Wonderful beds but room outlets need replacing; plugs don't fit in snugly. It would have been nicer if the bathroom sink were larger. The rooms need upgrading of paint and decor. Please put a table clock in the rooms!

"Location, location, location"
David T, 11 Juillet 2025

This hotel is all about location. It is essentially located near everything San Diego has to! Comfortable, clean rooms and a very nice breakfast. Also a very friendly staff.

"Do not recommend"
Dan M, 08 Juillet 2025

Forced to stay 4 nights for a soccer Stay N Play. Pros: Close to highway easy to access and get back to, large eating area with lots of food, long breakfast hours, maintenance fixed broken toilet in ~30 minutes, pool was mostly clean, pool area always had towels, snacks at front desk were priced well Cons: Run down hotel, grumpy front desk staff, unsafe area unable to walk places or leave kids unattended, many homeless, poor quality breakfast food, attracts party guests and staff does little to quiet them down, hot tub barely warm, hotel internet unusably slow anywhere in hotel, wifi signal weak, T-Mobile gets 1 bar reception at this location, remote barely worked for tv, tub didn't drain, toilet broke second day of stay, extremely overpriced.

"Great stay!"
Mônica M, 02 Juillet 2025

The staff was very friendly, the room was clean and the housekeep service was great! I feel like they could offer more options for breakfast, but everything was delicious and clean as well. I would definitely recommend this hotel!

Good stay enjoy everything, will definitely recommend and will stay next time. Thank you. Enjoyed the pool areas and the bar

"Good experience"
Storyteller714702, 23 Juin 2025

We stayed here while visiting family. You have to pay to park at the hotel and do a down-payment even if you've already paid for your stay. The rooms are clean. There is a free breakfast which was great, however the breakfast room can get very crowded and not have any available tables.

"Rooms were clean. Breakfast awful."
Luaane M, 17 Juin 2025

The free breakfast was awful. All frozen stuff warmed up. Coffee was weak. All staff were very nice. Security guards at nice were helpful.

Dragos L, 06 Juin 2025

Had a pleasant stay. Traveled with my wife and 2.5 year old son. We booked a 2 queen bed room. The bed I slept in, had a collapsed side. Other than that there were no issues. The room was clean, so was the toilet. We stayed just one night. The breakfast was okay, not great but not bad either.

"Straight boolin breakfast"

The motel was good and the staff was great. The parking was a little tight if you have a truck. There was a lot of kids and the pool was packed most of the time but it was all good. The motel was fairly easy to get to. The breakfast was ok they ran out of stuff the second day.

"Great value and location"
Carlie J, 20 Mai 2025

We stayed 6 nights at this hotel and have no complaints. We traveled as a family of two adults, a 3 year old and a 1 year old. The location is unbeatable. We were able to easily get to all the attractions we were visiting in the area. It seemed like transit was also an option although we didn't use it. We were driving an electric vehicle and there were two spots for free charging. We loved that! All the employees we interacted with were so friendly and genuine. I am not surprised by this as our first morning at breakfast, the person clearing the tables was the general manager ( we didn't know that at the time). He was attentive and great with our daughter, giving her two tattoos and making her laugh. The next day, he assisted me at the front desk (it was then I noticed his name tag). Clearly good, friendly service starts from the top. The breakfast was one of the best hotel breakfasts we have experienced. There was a variety of different options and they were different every day. My daughter loved the fresh yogurt machine and I loved the muffins! My husband enjoyed the omelettes and the fact that there was a different type of sausage every day (pork, chicken, veggie) The pool was great and a nice temperature. The hot tub was also a nice temperature. The area around the pool was always clean. We used the laundry machines and they were great also. We would absolutely stay here again if we are ever in the area. I would also recommend this hotel to anyone I knew. 2 “cons” - we were in an adjoining room (not by choice) and it was quite easy to hear everything the neighbours were saying and doing. This was not a big deal for us, but if you had kids that are sensitive sleepers, this could be an issue. - the door separating the living area from the bedroom is basically entirely glass so if your plan is to put the kids to bed and then stay up yourself, you will want to bring some sort of black out curtain. We did and it worked great.

"Economical and comfortable stay for a large group"
Jennie H, 14 Mai 2025

Booked 30 rooms for a high school band trip and was very satisfied at every step of the process! Sales Manager Breonna booked our stay and was so responsive in returning emails, and was professional and friendly, AND she gave us a good group rate. She was also conscious and thoughtful about how/where she assigned rooms for us in the hotel. Ashley checked us in upon arrival and was so friendly and helpful! She made us feel welcome (despite the large size of our group, which could be overwhelming to some). Complimentary breakfast included in our stay had enough variety and the breakfast area was large & clean, and they were cooperative with some allergy concerns. There was ample space for our 2 charter buses in the hotel parking lot. Our group visited both the nearby Zoo and Sea World, which were a convenient short drive away. Our students, parent chaperones and staff were well taken care of, and I heard no complaints about any of the rooms. I personally found the bed, pillows and linens in my room to be extremely comfortable. Our group stayed in rooms with 2 queen beds plus a sofabed, and the rooms had both a mini fridge and a microwave.

Owner Response, 14 Mai 2025

Dear Jennie, It was a pleasure to host your high school band trip at Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites. It's wonderful that our complimentary breakfast, convenient location, and attentive service helped create a seamless experience.

Yessica O, 08 Mai 2025

The best part was that it was clean and affordable, and the cleaning staff is wonderful. Other than that, the room upon arrival had an either a moldy smell or an egg smell. Neither pleasant. The wifi never worked and the room was on the side where we can hear all the cars all night!

"Nice hotel in spite of road noises at night."
Joan Petersen R, 30 Avril 2025

The hotel was clean and employees were helpful and kind. There was a lot of road noise all night long from our fourth floor room. Other than the noise it was a nice hotel. Breakfast was nice. Survey is not friendly to do so I dropped it from 4 to only three stars.

Owner Response, 30 Avril 2025

Dear Joan, Thank you for sharing your valuable feedback with us. We're thrilled that our hotel's cleanliness, warm and attentive team, and breakfast offerings were highlights of your stay.

"Marine Graduation"
Daniel C, 25 Avril 2025

Great, place to stay, staff was friendly and room was awesome. The Hotel looked very well maintained and they have 24 hour security, The location was easy on and easy off. Very close to the airport and the beaches. Will definitely be back with the family.

"Thanks for a great stay."
Tammy P, 23 Avril 2025

Very family friendly hotel, each room my family stayed in was a little different which met their needs. Conveniently located to all San Diego activities, easy on and off the freeway. The workers were very congenial and helpful. Thanks Stephani. Parking is tight but we always found a spot. Some bathrooms were small. However these are things out of the hotel workers control. I only mention for future people looking to stay here. What is your priority? The hotel worked for what we wanted. We would stay here again!

Owner Response, 23 Avril 2025

Dear Tammy, We're so happy that we could provide the perfect room for every member of your family.

Everything as described was good breakfasts was plenty and good the whole facility was clean.except when we got our room the sofa bed mattress very bad very thin and you could feel the spring when laying,we end up using most of the top covers from the other beds to create extra cushioning.

"Very kid friendly"
Tracy H, 19 Avril 2025

Breakfast was awesome. Great hospitality, and very kid friendly. Kids loved going to the pool, where other kids were playing. Only thing I felt like was slightly annoying was having to go down the elevator, and go outside and around to get to the lobby.

"Not bad could've been a little better."
DevilDog85, 19 Avril 2025

I came here on April, 17th, 2025 at 1am, front desk staff were very professional, polite, and very helpful. So bellow is the list of positives I put down and the negatives, hope this helps others. Positives-Nearby 1. Airport 2. Sea World 4. San Diego Zoo 5. USS Midway 6. Beaches 7. Various boat rides 8. And plenty more. 9. The Inn was clean, free breakfast daily, and every employee seemed polite and helpful. Especially Security Officer Benhex. Really solid guy and friendly. Negatives 1. The bed we had in the Hotel had a yellow stain on the mattress bellow the topper. stained yellow carpet near the desk like a dog peed on the floor. 2. Above room 269 it seemed like a bunch of kids running around, Hotel apparently could careless about that and smoking up and down the hall. 3. Barely any hot water for a shower!

"Convenient for early morning flight."
Alice T, 16 Avril 2025

Stayed there with my son after college tours. Suite is spacious but lots of noise from the pool and the highway. Parking was convenient but I don't understand why they need to charge so much. Easy to get to airport in the AM from the hotel. Would stay there again if we had early morning flight.

"SD get away"
John R, 15 Avril 2025

Warm welcome when we arrived at the hotel. Our room was upgraded to a suite which provided extra room. The suite has bunk beds rather than a sofa which they disclosed. The room was quiet away from the highway and clean. Parking is $26/ night but rate was reduced due to frequent traveler. The hotel appears unchanged since it was purchased from Comfort Inn. The breakfast is the standard fare but attendant endured the tables were cleaned between guests. The hotel is in a great location with easy access to popular attractions.

"You get what you pay for"
Erin W, 13 Avril 2025

Solid comfort for the price. Beds were comfortable, breakfast was good, fridge stayed cold. Only issue was the bathroom as the shower faucet was pulling away from the wall with pipes visible, cracks in the tile, and the water pressure left a lot to be desired.

"Nice hotel"
Chewitt007, 07 Avril 2025

The service from checking in to checking out was outstanding. The rooms were very clean and beds made each day. Dariana who checked us out was very helpful along with her other colleges.

"Family mini vacation"
Nicole N, 02 Avril 2025

Staff was very friendly rooms were nice and clean. Beds were comfortable and everything. It's nice was not too bad, to be honest. They had the pool in the spot open until a certain time.Had a complimentary breakfast which was great. They had a little mini store there inside the hotel that you could purchase from.If you needed certain drinks and foods and stuff like that , instead of going to the store it was nearby.

Vincent J, 22 Mars 2025

Layout of building was kind of strange but it was nice hotel for example - you can't get to hotel lobby from the rooms. It was a little bit noisy because of its very close to the freeway. The free daily breakfast was very good and beds were comfortable.

"COFFEE IS DELICIOUS + MORE"
Chelsie H, 16 Mars 2025

Coffee was delicious and available whenever for free, Staff was very friendly, hotel was clean, beds were very comfortable, we stayed in the King bed Suite with bunks room. They had a crib already in the room upon arriving like asked, the breakfast was bland but it was available and had a variety of, they had a overpriced little shop in the corner of the room which was nice to have available, they had $1 pods for laundry which was a decent price since we ended up doing 1 load of laundry. Parking was good they have a garage under the hotel which I was nervous about at first there was no trouble with the garage after the 2 night stay. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend and stay again. They even made our beds and gave us towels after 1 night which was awesome, normally most hotels do that every 2-3 days now.

"Great breakfast!"
AbbySnacks, 02 Mars 2025

Check-in staff was friendly and efficient. The free breakfast had a great variety and well stocked. The shower area was tight and could use a shelf. Also, did not care for the sink to be in the room and not in the shower area. Even though it stated was renovated in 2023, a well used hotel room.

"Pleasantly surprised"
sabrenag2020, 27 Février 2025

Pleasantly surprised. I requested an ADA room as I was traveling with my parents. Both have different ADA needs. The ADA room assigned to us fulfilled all of their needs. The room was clean and service was great. We requested days without service and if we needed just one thing they honored that. We were also pleasantly surprised with the variety for the continental breakfast. Different things were offered different days, such as pancakes one day and waffles the next. My mom thoroughly loved the fresh yogurt from the yogurt machine with options of toppings. I on the other hand, loved having the packaged yogurt. Breakfast was filling and set us up for the day. We also, loved the option of having breakfast early to late morning; as we had a few easy mornings where we planned down days, which meant we didn't have to wake up as early just to get breakfast. We used the laundry service. The card readers on the machines work best with the chip tap, as the chip reader for washing machines wasn't accessible if your card didn't have tap, then it wouldn't work as we found out with my dad's card, we managed by using my card. Pool and hot tub hours were reasonable, as well as the temps. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed everything about this hotel from service to amenities.

Owner Response, 27 Février 2025

Dear Sabrena, Thank you for this great review! We're glad our accommodations provided the accessibility your parents needed and that our team honored your housekeeping preferences while still ensuring you had what you needed. Providing a comfortable and seamless experience is always our goal, and we're delighted that you felt well taken care of. We're especially glad that the breakfast offerings stood out to you. Having a variety of options is something we know makes a difference, and it's great that both you and your mom found favorites to enjoy. The extended breakfast hours are designed to accommodate different schedules, so it's nice to hear they allowed for more relaxed mornings during your stay. Your feedback about the laundry service is appreciated as well, and we're glad you found a way to make it work. It's also great to know that the pool and jetted tub met your expectations, both in terms of hours and comfort. It sounds like every aspect of your visit, from the service to the amenities, came together to create a truly enjoyable stay, and that's exactly what we strive for. We look forward to welcoming you again! Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Very hospitable"
Stephen S, 20 Février 2025

We were in town for a 10U hockey tournament. Most of our team stayed at this hotel. The staff were extremely accommodating and responsive. They even allowed us to reserve the breakfast area to allow for a place for our team to mingle all together. The beds were comfortable. I will say noise right off the freeway made it hard for me to sleep. So, I do think the hotel should consider thicker pane glass or other noise cancelling improvements. I would stay again though based on experience with the hotel staff.

Kevin C, 14 Février 2025

Super friendly staff. Especially the night front desk lady (Mic). Breakfast was nice to have. My only complaint was things were loud late into the night from other rooms and the walls seemed pretty thin. The pool and hot tub were fun for the family. A nice perk is they have discounted zoo and sea world tickets

We had an awful experience. The bedding in our room for our kids' bed was filthy. I had to go down 4x and beg to be given clean bedding. Our other room had blood on the pillowcase. We did not stay our second night. Service from the front desk was awful.

"Thank you!"
Cynthia G, 13 Janvier 2025

We left due to the emergency in Pasadena. In our haste we stayed at a few hotels cobbling together a plan. Our last experience was at The Best Western in San Diego. By far The Best Western with the help from the front desk team of Jessica and Ashley made that last choice in really such a bare bones place so perfect. Everyone there was so kind, fair, compassionate, gave us a discount due to our circumstances and I don't know how else to put it: we are forever grateful to this organization. Other hotels with far more clout offered nothing or close to it. We weren't away for fun. We had to leave because the air quality was really scary. Our circumstances were not as bad as others (thank goodness) but it was enough to tell us we needed to get away. The room was fine, of course. It was The Best Western. What mattered far more was the way in which we were treated. We're really very grateful and appreciative how human this hotel really is.

Owner Response, 13 Janvier 2025

The hotel feels aged and needs some modernizing. The walls are very thin. That said, I feel that they really do the best they can with what they have. The staff is absolutely lovely. Truly the warmest and most helpful front desk staff you could ask for. The breakfast is lovely. Even for gluten free guests :) And again, really wonderful breakfast staff. Oh, and free WiFi! Our family had a great stay and will be back.

Owner Response, 12 Janvier 2025

"Great place to stay - sea world trips"
meenakshisundaramm, 01 Janvier 2025

Best hotel to stay in San Diego if you plan for sea world trips. Great breakfast in the morning and proximity to the old town San Diego is a plus. Rooms are great and room was cleaned every day by room service. Heated pools is an excellent place to relax in the winters too Some of minor things that can be improved: Parking fee of 24 dollars. We did not know while booking. Found couple of spiders in lounge area . Needs to be cleaned probably due to the indoor plants

Owner Response, 01 Janvier 2025

Dear Meenakshi, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad to hear the hotel was perfect for your SeaWorld trip and that you enjoyed the breakfast, room service, and heated pool—it sounds like you had a relaxing stay overall! We appreciate your feedback on the parking fee and the cleaning concern in the lounge area. We'll make sure to address these points to ensure a smoother experience for future guests.

"Great experience"
maslp48, 01 Janvier 2025

We came to celebrate my son's birthday and planned an overnight trip. Hotel lobby and rooms were very clean. The bed was comfy. The breakfast had a decent selection and the breakfast area was clean. The staff overall were very nice and helpful.

"Convenient location"
LikesAGoodDeal, 07 Décembre 2024

My husband and I traveled to San Diego for a few days and stayed at this Best Western. We had an Accessible - 2 Queen room on the 4th floor. The wide door way to the bathroom and plentiful grab bars worked well. There is a separate bathroom vent fan. The hallway and room were fresh smelling even though the breakfast area is on the same floor. The room was clean. The room heater was not too loud. The bed was comfortable and there were 4 pillows on each bed. There was a noise issue because this room was on the freeway side of the building and there was a lot of road traffic. Luckily, I always travel with ear plugs and my husband can sleep through a lot of noise. Unfortunately, we also could hear the water quite loudly in the pipes when neighboring room flushed the toilet. I would recommend asking for a room away from the freeway. There was a blockage in the bathtub so the shower was not draining, we went to the front desk in the morning to report it. It had not been fixed by the time we returned at the end of the day, so we asked that a maintenance person be requested to take care of it ASAP which they did. Breakfast: This Best Western did not include make-your-own waffles or fresh oatmeal. It did have hard boiled eggs, Cheerios, yogurt, and plentiful 2% milk so we were good with that. The location was very convenient for visiting SeaWorld and the San Diego Zoo. Even though we had to pay for parking, I found that the overall cost at this hotel was less than other places with free parking.

Owner Response, 07 Décembre 2024

Thank you for your detailed feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoyed our location, room comfort, and the convenience of being close to SeaWorld and the San Diego Zoo. We truly appreciate your recommendations, and we apologize for the noise issues and the maintenance delay. We'll be sure to pass your comments along to ensure improvements are made. We're happy the breakfast options worked for you, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future for an even better time.

"Great Mother Daughter Birthday Trip"
TAWNYNAK, 04 Décembre 2024

There were a couple of hiccups but Ashley was amazing in making sure that we were taken care of! The beds were comfortable. The shower was great pressure and great temperature. breakfast was amazing! there were several places that we were able to order delivery and although we had to go downstairs to get it I liked the added security feature!

Owner Response, 04 Décembre 2024

Dear Tawnyna, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review.

"Top-Notch Hospitality – A Truly Perfect Stay"
Jocelyn L, 01 Décembre 2024

The customer service and hospitality that I received at the Best Western was truly exceptional, and not something you find at every other hotel. From Jessica's warm smile and outgoing conversation with me during check-in, to Front Office Manager, Vebi's professionalism and kindness, it's no wonder it feels like home here, because everyone is genuinely happy to be working there. The room itself was delightful - A.C works great, the bed feels like you're sleeping on a CLOUD (I snoozed my way through 3 alarms, so that says it all!) My room had a bath-tub, so that was nice and relaxing, and having a microwave + fridge is always great. Breakfast was included which was a plus- and parking was super accessible as well. The hotel is right off the freeway too, making it super easy to get to work & grab a bite on the way back! I didn't experience any issues with my room, but even if I had, they run a pretty tight ship there so I know any request would have been expedited. Overall, I will say, in San Diego you'll find all types of hotels, from low end, to high end, resorts and boutiques...but if you want to be treated like FAMILY, as opposed to just another room number for the night, then make a reservation here and experience it for yourself! At this Best Western you have a name, you are valued as a guest and genuinely taken care of all around. Shoutout to Jessica, front desk - for being so sweet and knowledgeable from the moment I walked in and then following up with a phone call to ensure I was happy with my room. Shoutout to the Housekeeping Manager, Mevlide R. for making sure my room was perfect prior to my arrival, to overnight security guard, Bexhet R. for his friendliness and great conversation every time we ran into each other. And most important, thank you to Vebi Rexhepi for setting the standard on how people should be treated all the time - regardless of membership tiers or status. This hotel and your team have won the lottery having you as their primary leader; and the dedication and values you have implemented to them is what makes you stand out from everyone else. As a frequent traveler, I will proudly choose this Best Western over any other branded hotel, any day!! Until next time, guys! -Jocelyn

"Suitable for what we needed"
Parking26, 25 Novembre 2024

We only needed the room/suite to sleep, shower and have breakfast. Otherwise, we left the property each day. It's a remodeled older property with old elevators. The rooms were clean but needed minor repairs such as paint touch ups, newer toilets, etc. Towels were dingy. As far as service, it was five stars. Staff was nice and had our room tidy when we got back. Breakfast was generous, being open for 4 hours. They have a security guard overnight to watch over the parking, so I didn't mind the parking fee. However the homeless still made their way onto benches on the property by morning and smoking their Mary Jane's. It's not the Hilton but if you're there to just sleep, shower and have breakfast, it is suitable. It's hard to find a Hotel these days that just nails it unless you want to drop a thou for 3 nights.

John C, 25 Novembre 2024

Two Items: 1. Special thanks to Jesica at the desk, 2:00 pm November 23. She was great. Terrific personality and made us feel real welcome. 2. Problem with the toilet: Commode was too small. Very uncomfortable to use. Other than the horrible toilet, we enjoyed our stay.

"Needs a lot of work"
GlobetrotterBella, 05 Novembre 2024

Pros: Close to everything Cons $24 parking fee. Bugs in the room Thin walls I stay at best westerns all the time and this one did not live up to my expectations. Check in: Easy and fast. The room wasn't ready, but within 10 minutes, we were given our keys. The room: Definitely needs a good carpet cleaning. Lots of wear and tear. Smashed, dead bug on the wall. We had tiny roaches invade our food by the microwave. The room had two beds and one sofa bed. The beds were comfortable. The shower was good. Good water pressure. Hot water available all the time. The room has a fridge and a microwave. The walls are super thin. We heard everything, including the cars from the highway. People were outside yelling at 1am and the room upstairs must have had a jumping party. There was definitely interrupted sleep. Parking: some covered and some uncovered. Very tight spaces, but manageable. Fee is $24 per night. Breakfast: traditional continental. Some hot and some cold items. Everyone super nice in the breakfast room. It is close to the zoo and sea world.

The location was good, central to everything we did. The pillows were small and awful, our room was the king and separate bunk area and the long area's ac was broken, so it was freezing in the kids room and hot in ours. Beds were comfortable other than pillows. Customer service was top notch and everyone was super friendly and helpful

Gregory R, 03 Novembre 2024

Smelled very clean. Good amount of space in the room. I did get allergies in the middle of the night and had to drive to a 7 eleven to get done Claritin. The parking was a little more expensive than I expected but they did have security patrolling the area in the middle of the night so that's nice.

"good enough"
Janice E, 19 Octobre 2024

We stayed Tuesday-Friday. Room was clean. Toilet is loud. Pool and hot tub are good size. Husband thought the dining room layout was terrible because he was always running into people, but he has high anxiety. I thought it was okay. Friday morning breakfast had a lot of big groups - families and sports teams. Freeway entrance is a bit complicated, but it's very close. Location is 5 minutes to Sea World and less than 10 to San Diego zoo. Had a good variety of eating places nearby.

Owner Response, 19 Octobre 2024

"Two Thumbs Up from Me"
Martha W, 10 Octobre 2024

It was about 3 am when we checked in. We had just come from a terrible run down hotel that was not meant for families and had to come here. This was like heaven compared to the hotel we were originally supposed to stay at. The outside doors were locked, we had to call the front desk so she could let us in. I thought already, what great security! The staff were so friendly, the breakfast was fantastic and the hotel rooms were so spacious. The fanciest I've ever stayed in. The beds were comfortable. Everything was clean and fresh. They also have a little store downstairs so you could buy snacks and drinks. Which we did often. I had a personal pizza from there for supper one night. It was really good! I highly recommend this hotel! :)

"Ensuring rooms are thoroughly cleaned before guests arrive is a priority. A fresh and clean-smelling room would make a b"
silvana z, 10 Octobre 2024

I stayed at the hotel with my family recently, and while we enjoyed certain aspects of our stay, the breakfast experience was disappointing. We arrived at 9 AM, but most of the food items were already empty, and the eating area was quite dirty. There were noticeable spills and debris on the floor. I understand that the hotel was busy, but I believe more attention should be given to cleanliness and replenishing food items during breakfast hours.

Good, clean and comfortable stay. The rooms are up to date and maintained. The beds are comfy and the pillows are fluffy . The morning breakfast was good and there is a lot of people in bursts. So not enough seating area for the influx. One day we sat the next we ate in our room, but we didn't mind. Good fast internet. They do give you a flow chart for the preferred breakfast times. Hotel is close to the San Diego zoo, Airport and dining areas. Any active military

"Worst hotel we've ever stayed in."
Ricardo L, 01 Octobre 2024

We came to San Diego to have some fun at Sea World, but unfortunately we chose this hotel to sleep at. The room wasn't clean, the mattress and the carpet were both terribly stained. The cherry on top was that there were live cockroaches in our bathroom. We complained and they only offered us a 50$ discount. Spending almost 400 dollars on such a crappy room is unbelievable.

Owner Response, 01 Octobre 2024

Dear Ricardo, Thank you for choosing to stay with us. We understand how frustrating it can be having to face the challenges you experienced.

"Priced right!"
Robbye W, 30 Septembre 2024

Overall the experience was fine. The pillows were flat unless you asked for more, then they were fluffy. They have great security lights outside for safety, but they blast right into the windows and the curtains don't help much. The bed was comfy though.

Owner Response, 30 Septembre 2024

Thank you for staying with us and for taking the time to leave feedback. We're glad that most of your stay met expectations and we've taken notes on the pillows. Although we pride ourselves on our in-house security, we regret that the lights negatively impacted your stay and will review this internally. It was truly a pleasure to host you and we hope to see you again in the future. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Expected better for a Sea World partner hotel :("
Yesenia R, 28 Septembre 2024

Booked this hotel because Sea World offers a package though this partner and the other partnered hotels were booked. The hallway smelled like mold, the evening check-in staff wasn't very polite, and the room lacked basic amenities that were posted on the website (i.e. microwave). I will say that the breakfast staff was very nice though. Sharing this for future guests - parking is $24 per day. However, you can park on the street and there's usually plenty of parking.

Owner Response, 28 Septembre 2024

Dear Yesenia, We are truly sorry that your stay was not as enjoyable as you deserved, and we can understand how disappointing it must have been to encounter those challenges. It's concerning to hear about the hallway odor, missing amenities, and your check-in experience, as we always strive to provide a warm and comfortable stay. We are glad, however, that our breakfast team made you feel welcome, and we will be sure to pass along your kind words. Your feedback is important to us, and we will work hard to make things right. We would love to have another chance to welcome you back for a more pleasant experience. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

We were in town for a tournament and selected this hotel based on location and cost and were pleased with both.

"Never again"
TheHappyH0usewife, 21 Septembre 2024

Terrible. Paid for a room with 2 doubles and a bunk bed. Upon arrival, was told my room had not been cleaned. No offer to clean it. Only offered a king with bunk beds or 2 doubles, no bunk bed. Had to accept king with bunks since it was after 8pm and needed to put my son to bed after a long day at the zoo celebrating his birthday and I promised him bunk beds. Ashley took $50 off but I haven't seen it yet. Our original room would have been on the inside part of the hotel, away from the freeway. The room we got was right against the freeway, so kids had a hard time sleeping. My husband has rheumatoid arthritis and needs extra pillows and his own bed to sleep. Amber denied him the pillows he requested, agreed to send up 4 but only 3 were delivered. Since we didn't get the 2 doubles we paid for, my husband could not sleep as he was in so much pain. This blatant mistake ruined the whole next day of my son's birthday celebration because none of us had a good night's sleep. Through gross carelessness, our original room had not been prepared for us even though they had plenty of notice (I booked on Sept 10) and plenty of time that day to clean it (we arrived shortly after 8pm). We saw the next morning that they were cleaning the original room so we thought they gave our room to someone else. We asked and no one was even in that room! They should have had it ready when we arrived, but since they didn't, they should have cleaned it immediately and given us our proper room. We will never come back here and will dissuade anyone else we can from coming here. It's not hard; honor your reservations!!!

Owner Response, 21 Septembre 2024

Dear Valued Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and we apologize for the significant issues you encountered during your stay. It's disheartening to hear that your son's birthday was negatively affected, and we sincerely regret that we failed to meet your expectations on such an important occasion. Please rest assured that we will be addressing your claims directly with our housekeeping and front desk teams. We understand your disappointment, and while we regret that this stay has impacted your perception of our hotel, we would love the opportunity to regain your trust. Please reach out to us offline for any billing related concerns. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Highly recommend"
Neal F, 20 Septembre 2024

The property was very clean, very quiet. Breakfast selection was fantastic. Pool was clean and not overly treated. Close freeway access. Shower could have more water pressure, but other than that I would stay here again without hesitation.

"Very clean, nice and affordable hotel"
Karen K, 20 Septembre 2024

Hotel was very clean and pleasant in general. Room was spacious and clean. Pool and hot tub area large and nice atmosphere complete with palms. Breakfast well stocked and good variety of food. Onsite parking has a nightly fee and spaces are tight for a large vehicle, that was only complaint we had. We will definitely stay here again!

"Hotel needs major improvements"
Steve P, 14 Septembre 2024

We rented 2 king suites for 3 nights. Rooms were on 4th floor. Elevator broke within the first 24 hours and other guests told us it had happened several times before our arrival. One of our rooms was infested with bugs on our arrival (tub was full of live insects).

Owner Response, 14 Septembre 2024

ILLandSurveyor, Thank you for staying with us and I apologize for any inconveniences you experienced. Our elevator company came out to trouble shoot the issue, found the cause, and fixed it. We have not had any other issues with the elevator since. We have contacted our pest control company to come out and treat the drains as this is where any pests would be coming from, if they are found in the tub. They do come out every month to do a prevention treatment to a certain amount rooms and go through all the rooms every 6 months. We look forward to you giving us another opportunity the next time your travels bring you to San Diego.

"Clean & comfy"
lee S, 12 Septembre 2024

The bed was very comfy, the room was clean .The complimentary breakfast was excellent - a lot of choices & good quality. I would stay there again. The only negative was there are no convenient stores nearby walking distance; they did have a few things by the front desk for sale.

"Roach motel"
J F, 11 Septembre 2024

Roaches in my room and completely run down overall. Water pressure is low and WiFi is really bad. Water staining on the ceiling and all that. I would not stay here, pretty much everyone else in the area seems to be better. I was traveling on business so options were limited, I've never had a place this bad before.

Owner Response, 11 Septembre 2024

Dear J F, Thank you for staying with us during your recent business trip and letting us know about your experience. We are disappointed you had concerns, but we will evaluate your comments with our team and work to correct any issues.

"Very Good Stay in San Diego"
firewx, 10 Septembre 2024

The hotel was in a great location and close to everything in San Diego. The room was super clean and the pool was fantastic. Although breakfast was big with a lot of options, there were tons of people in the area and it was even hard to find a table. Overall, I thought it was a very good stay and I would stay here again.

"Wonderful Family Vacation"
Marilyn K, 10 Septembre 2024

The room was quiet, the bed was comfortable, and I loved the pillows. Housekeeping came every day to change to clean the room! The hotel was close to everything. Sea World and San Diego Zoo were just minutes away! We also enjoyed the pool and hot tub spa which we enjoyed using before and after sight-seeing (it's open 9am-10pm). Best of all the breakfast buffet was awesome. The selection of items had something for everyone. We would definitely stay here again, and recommend to anyone taking their family to San Diego!

"After zoo trip"
GoPlaces10982717424, 31 Août 2024

The rooms were nice, staff was pleasant and helpful. They had a good breakfast with lots of seating. It was quiet and staff closed the hall door to keep the dining area noise from coming down the hall. It was nice being able to just go down the hall of the 4th floor for breakfast I, however, would not recommend buying candy at the front desk because my Snickers bar was old.

Owner Response, 31 Août 2024

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad you enjoyed our accommodations, helpful staff, and breakfast setup with ample seating. It's great to hear that the quiet atmosphere added to your stay. We appreciate your feedback about the candy at the front desk and will ensure our offerings are always fresh. We hope to welcome you back for another pleasant stay! Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Older but clean hotel."
Rachelle S, 30 Août 2024

The room was outdated and had a musty smell, however, they do keep it clean. Absolutely no issue with the cleanliness once you got past the odor. The elevator was broke and we had to walk quite a bit to another elevator on the other side. There was no parking left and I had to park on the street next to homeless people hanging out.

Owner Response, 30 Août 2024

Dear Rachelle, Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We're glad to hear that our cleanliness met your expectations overall. However, we apologize for the inconvenience you've described. Your comments are valuable, and we'll address these concerns to improve and enhance our guest experience.

bobtY1009YZ, 26 Août 2024

Rooms were very clean. Great breakfast, great staff. Close to almost everything. Our stay was for a graduation at the MCRD. About 8 minutes away . Close to airport, San Diego Zoo. Lots of places to eat within a mile. Lot of parking but a little pricey. Everybody charges for parking.

Owner Response, 26 Août 2024

Dear Bob, Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoyed our clean rooms, great breakfast, and friendly staff.

"Thick walls"
Jessica R, 22 Août 2024

For the amount of families we saw that were also there, we never once heard them through the walls. Location is super easy to get to anywhere in San Diego, beds are comfortable, room was a great size, and the breakfast bar food was way better than any other hotel we've ever stayed at!

Owner Response, 22 Août 2024

"More modern than expected!"
Yosef H, 21 Août 2024

Rooms were more modern and updated then we expected. We were pleasantly surprised how nice and clean the rooms were. Wall art was a nice addition. A little rough around the edges (some paint, rust and or wood chipping). No central room lighting in our first room. All lamps. Breakfast options were amazing. Waffles, eggs, muffins etc.. Although I don't know how the food tasted as we are on a strict diet. Very nice staff as well. Coffee was tasteless and over diluted. Juices were ok, also a little over diluted. Jacuzzi was perfect for my family at 5 PM since that area was shaded at that time of day. We got the last towels. Not sure how soon after they refilled them. Great for little kids if you can watch them like a hawk and be very close to them. There is a little sitting ledge. So my 3 year old could walk in it. But couldn't sit. I was glued to her the entire time for safety. But she had a nice amount of freedom without floaties due to the sitting ledge in the jacuzzi. My 6 year old was able to stand in the jacuzzi safely even though she doesn't know how to swim. Was just shallow enough to allow that. We had a major major issue during our first night stay, but they immediately upgraded us to a suite down the hall. So we switched rooms in the middle of the night. And we spoke to the manager in person before we left after our stay. He was extremely understanding and apologetic. And he comped us satisfactorily (initial offer was subpar, but after some further discussion and explanation of the major issue we experienced, he was very fair in our compensation). Overall, great value for the price.

Owner Response, 21 Août 2024

Dear Yosef, We're grateful to have had the opportunity to host your family. It's lovely to read that your children enjoyed visiting our hot tub. While we regret the issue you encountered during your stay, it was our pleasure to offer you other accommodations. We're confident your next visit will be seamless, and we hope you will join us again at Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites.

the location was great. the dining hall was very small and crowded, and there wasn't enough space for everyone (we had to eat the food in our room because we didn't have any free table to sit at.) the hotel staff were very nice and helpful. the pool area was very nice. the extra bed was terrible, very uncomfortable.

This place have some issues with cleaning but they have very friendly front office. They are willing to fix problems. Well!

"Location was excellent for what we wanted to do. The staff were friendly, courteous, respectful, attentive."
S3442HDbarbaras, 20 Juillet 2024

,The breakfast was not up to the standards we usually encounter at Best Western. The food choices were very basic. In addition, the dining room was way too small for the number of guests. We stood and waited for tables for unreasonable amount of time on 2 of the 4 days. In fact, the last day we left without breakfast because we ran out of time. The room bathroom needs updating. Having a small sink in an extremely small area out of the main bathroom makes it challenging for family members to have any privacy.

Our room was spacious, the bed was comfortable, and the room was clean. There were a variety of items for breakfast each day and the food was good. Staff was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be staying here again.

"Nice Place"
Sean G, 28 Juin 2024

Breakfast was nice. Room was clean. The gym was small but clean, had AC and water, and all the equipment worked. Their windows are single pane glass in the rooms so if you are a light sleeper the road noise might keep you awake. They seem to come through and clean the rooms daily.

Owner Response, 28 Juin 2024

Dear Sean, Thank you for taking the time to share your review with us. We love to hear you enjoyed our delicious breakfast, clean and comfortable rooms, and well-equipped fitness center.

Rhonda G, 27 Juin 2024

Great Customer service. This was a very good experience at this location. For ten years we travel and stay at Best Western Hotels. Breonnia Osborne became our contact months after we made the initial reservation. I was initial concern as the previous contact was not responsive (helpful). Even the Security Staff was great. Our Camp experience was successful and Breonnia's Team was a major factor.

Owner Response, 27 Juin 2024

Dear Rhonda, Thank you for your perfect rating and gracious praise. We're delighted you enjoyed such a wonderful experience with us at Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites, and it's great our team such good care of you.

This best western met every expectation and more! Beds were super comfortable! Environment was friendly and family oriented Staff were helpful and responsive.

The room and hallway were extremely humid. The elevador was only one and took forever. Also it smell like burn and world be risky if you dont watch your step floor will be wet from The People on The pool.

"Family Friendly"
christysF1778DT, 15 Juin 2024

Bunk bed room was perfect for a stay with kids! Breakfast was a hotel breakfast. Coffee was good and the staff keeping the area clean was ON IT. A girl named Amber checked us in and she was phenomenal! I spoke to another girl on the phone, think her name was Jessica, and she was just as friendly! Even shared a chuckle with security while at the pool with the kids. My only noticeable thing was i think there may have been some kid of water leak because they had fans blowing the carpet on our level. It smelt really strong. Maybe a mention of that would have been nice but nothing worth a complaint about. Also like other reviews mentioned parking it tight but worth the daily rate. I would totally stay here again.

Owner Response, 15 Juin 2024

"Family friendly"
Jamie C, 12 Juin 2024

It's been remolded since we were here last, enjoyed fresh new look. We loved having 2 queen beds and a pull out sofa made it family friendly. We had our room serviced, housekeeping went above and behind we had left it very sandy, they had it cleaned and even tucked in my daughter's stuffed animal and folded her blanket. It was such a treat to come back after a long day. We enjoyed the simple but yet delicious breakfast. We were always welcomed with such friendliness. Thank you for making our home away from home cozy and welcoming.

Owner Response, 12 Juin 2024

Dear Jamie, Thank you for your wonderful review. We're thrilled that you enjoyed our remodeled property.

The elevator broke with us trapped inside it. My daughter was traumatized by this. I wrote an incident report about the issue and nobody even followed up.

We stayed near Radys for a Dr appointment for my daughter. It was a excellent experience. The room was perfect for my husband and daughter and I and the employee Stephanie was the absolute best! She understood what we needed as far as two rooms and gave us a discount for being with Radys. All in all a really really nice experience.

"4 Day Stay"
msonparis, 02 Juin 2024

Front Desk service is exceptional. Housekeeping is excellent!! If you plan to enjoy the pool and jacuzzi areas, be warned there many kids that jump from the pool into the jacuzzi who have no supervision from their parents. Don't think the hotel staff or security will come to restore order as there were none who did during my stay. If you plan on eating breakfast in this Best Western, I encourage you to make other arrangements if you don't plan on eating bread cooked in various ways. There are no varieties of healthy options for breakfast in this hotel and they serve same thing every day. Also, their sofa bed is not comfortable. It is very thin.

Owner Response, 02 Juin 2024

Thank you for your review of Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites. It's wonderful to hear you received exceptional service from our front desk and housekeeping staff. Your feedback regarding the pool, breakfast, and sofa bed is appreciated. Safety, quality, and comfort are among the highest standards we aim to provide and this feedback will be addressed with the appropriate teams. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

"If you are going to San Diego Zoo, this is the hotel you should consider"
marty d, 29 Mai 2024

Very good breakfast, comfortable bed, friendly front desk. poor WIFI connection. We had to use our personal hot port. If you are going to San Diego Zoo, Sea World or Legoland with your kids for vacation, this is a good hotel to stay. We had a room with 1 king bed and 1 bunk bed which are good enough for 2 adults + 3 kids.

Owner Response, 29 Mai 2024

Dear Marty, We're so happy to know that our comfortable accommodations, friendly team members, and more left a positive impression on you during your visit.

"Better experience than Marriott Old Town"
Jazmin L, 26 Mai 2024

The sheets and towels had stains and did not appear to be the cleanest. Some of the furniture is damaged and carpet has stains. The bathroom was nice. The breakfast was really nice and had so many options even for my 1 year old. I would stay here again

"Better than expected"
Courtney N, 23 Mai 2024

First impression, looked nicer than the other one I seen down the street. Clean inside the loddy, front desk was quick and helpful. We stayed in one of the suites with a king bed and bunk bed. No weird “hotel” smell. It was very clean inside. There is a dividing door that closes, both sides have own tv, and separate air conditioning. We went to the pool and spa. The pool was fairly clean. It did have some debris, but I believethat to be from the wind, not anything nasty like hair, I've been very grossed out from hotel pools before. Surprisingly, the bed was comfortable. I have a hard time sleeping as it is and I will say I slept well without any pains in my back or neck. The Continental breakfast was included with our stay. It had muffins, yogurt, cereal, juice, and COFFEE. The coffee was really good. Again, when I stay different places the coffee makes it or breaks it for me. They have multiple waffle makers, the kids loved that they could make their own. The dinning area nice and clean as well. We were able to sit right down at a clean table. I'm very pleased with my choice to go with this Best Western.

Owner Response, 23 Mai 2024

Dear Courtney, We're thrilled you had such a positive first impression of our hotel and found our lobby clean and our front desk team quick and helpful. It's great to know that you had a pleasant experience at our pool and spa, and we appreciate your understanding regarding any debris - we do our best to keep it clean and well-maintained. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're thrilled that we could exceed your expectations during your stay.

We took a group of 22 to San Diego for a senior trip. The hotel is old, but it's clean and the rooms are comfortable. We enjoyed the location since it was convenient to the airport, San Diego Zoo, ballpark, and Sea World. The staff was friendly and welcoming. If I ever return to San Diego, I would book this hotel again.

"Wonderful Staff!"
jacqueline d, 02 Mai 2024

Staff was awesome! We were able to use the heated pool multiple times and we got the included breakfast in the morning. Over all we had a great stay and we would stay here again. I do wish parking was included in the stay. The room needed a little bit of TLC; bathtub was peeling and it could use some fresh paint on the walls. Hand soap smelled gross so maybe bring your own. The room was still very clean. House keeping would make our beds and get fresh towels while we were out for the day (much needed for a family of 5).

Owner Response, 02 Mai 2024

Dear Jacqueline, Thank you so much for all the kind words. We're happy to know that our clean accommodations and friendly team members were the highlights of your visit.

"Not a bad stay"
Ashlee D, 22 Avril 2024

Hotel seemed a little old but was in a convenient location for our vacation. I've Never had to pay for parking when staying in a hotel but I guess it's a thing.. We opted for the king suite with the sofa bed (thought our two kids (10,8) would find it cool). The space was very tight for 4 people & the sofa bed was about 4” thick.. you should feel every spring… there were only 2 washers and 2 dryers for the entire hotel which wasn't helpful. Breakfast was good and I liked it was served until 10am. Price point was reasonable and for that I wouldn't not go back.

Owner Response, 22 Avril 2024

Dear Ashlee, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're glad you found our breakfast to your liking and price point reasonable. Your feedback on aspects such as the parking and the sofa bed is also appreciated.

"Large old hotel that is not too clean and not well maintained"
Jeannie D, 30 Mars 2024

The room at this best western was a good size and the beds were comfortable. Unfortunately their carpet was dirty with small pieces of garbage on the floor and an old pony tail tie in the night table. They gave us a room at the end of the hotel on the 2nd floor on the freeway side and the noise was terrible from the freeway and interfered with our good sleep. We also couldn't get Wi-Fi on any of our three devices. We stayed for three nights and on the third morning our carpet was soaking wet near the door and when maintenance came they said it was a toilet overflow and we had to pack up and move rooms. The next room had Wi-Fi on all our devices (they need a better router) but the carpet was still not very clean and I had two small dirty bandaides stuck to the bottom of my slipper from previous occupants from walking on the carpet. The hotel was busy and full, and the line the last morning for breakfast took us over 20 minutes to self serve our breakfast food. I would not stay here again.

Owner Response, 30 Mars 2024

Dear Jeannie, Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your recent stay with us. The experience you described is not at all up to our cleanliness standards, and our team will investigate further. We also apologize that you could not access our WiFi in your first room. Your input is appreciated and will be taken into account so we can make changes that improve future guest experiences. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

The hotel check-in was very smooth, from the desk employees were very kind. The location of the hotel was great, as we went to the Zoo and SeaWorld, and we also went to a soccer game.

"Great Location"
John R, 13 Mars 2024

Great location to San Diego attractions and family. The hotel rooms are spacious. Would like to see the hotel bed linens updated. The mattress pad seemed to small for the bed and sheet would not stay tucked in. Since it is located next to the 8, I did hear some traffic noise. Please note that their is a charge for parking.

Owner Response, 13 Mars 2024

Dear John, We love to hear from our guests, so thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It sounds like our location worked well for your plans, and we're happy to hear it.

"Sleep"
Mike D, 03 Mars 2024

All I care about is getting a good sleep. The bed was very comfortable and a/c worked well. There is a nice restaurant next door with a bar. No microwave in the room unless you get a suite which was not good. Plus because it is California you have to pay to park.

Owner Response, 03 Mars 2024

Dear Mike, It's fantastic that you could rest comfortably during your stay, and we trust you left us feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. Though we mention our in-room amenities and parking fee on all our booking platforms, we apologize for your frustration and have noted your comments.

"Beware of bugs... and they are doing nothing to fix it..."
AGHeather, 03 Mars 2024

I came into town and stayed at this hotel prior to my friend's surprise party. I checked in, left for a few hours, and came back around 7:30pm to climb in bed and read. I woke up the next morning with bug bites, consistent in size, cluster pattern, etc. as bed bugs. There were also little spots of blood on my sheets. I contacted the front desk and they sent a maintenance man up who asked me to show him the "animals." I explained that I had bug bites, showed him the ones at my waist, and he searched the bed. He did not see bedbugs and told me they would look into getting me another room. I packed my belongings, did research on how to minimize the risk of bringing bedbugs home with me, and proceeded downstairs to check out. I was not sticking around a hotel with an infestation and I could not go to my friend's house as I did not want to potentially contaminate her home. I ended my 5 day trip less than 24 hours after it started. While waking up with bites, fearing bringing an infestation home with me, and missing the opportunity to see my friends was bad enough, the front desk staff was absolutely horrific. I was told they did not see any bed bugs and, therefore, I was lying. There was no customer service, there was no apology, they would not be doing anything to treat the room, nor would they refund me, since they saw no bedbugs. The staff immediately went on the defensive and tried to cover everything up, rather than providing any customer service. I would highly recommend avoiding this hotel as they do have bugs that bite, they refuse to treat the room, and I was treated like the enemy when all I wanted to do was be refunded for the night I spent getting bitten and leave. I never got a refund for the night I slept there, which I am no longer upset about - I am too busy researching bedbug detection/prevention/etc. in every spare moment I've had since I have been back.

Owner Response, 03 Mars 2024

Dear Heather, Thank you for choosing to stay with us during your recent trip. We're disappointed to read about your recent experience.

"Great customer service and a very clean well kept environment."
HONEY B, 02 Mars 2024

Excellent customer service and clean rooms. The pool was heated as stated in their specifications and the fitness room was nice and clean. It certainly surpassed my expectations but then again Best Western chains always have for the most part.

Owner Response, 02 Mars 2024

It is a great compliment to see that our hotel and our brand continue to impress you and deliver the quality stay you are looking for. Thank you for reviewing your stay at Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites. We hope to see you again soon and deliver another clean, friendly, and comfortable stay.

"Clean and quiet"
Andrew M, 01 Mars 2024

Clean facilities, parking fee was steep. Breakfast didn't vary much day-to-day, but there was plenty of items available. Family-friendly with a pool and breakfast they would enjoy. Easy to get to, right off the highway and relatively close to the ocean (10 minutes).

Owner Response, 01 Mars 2024

Thank you for choosing Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites! We're glad our clean, quiet accommodations impressed you and that you appreciated being close to the ocean. Your feedback about breakfast is appreciated, and we'll keep your comments in mind. Should your adventures bring you back to the area, please come see us again. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Great San Diego option"
Michele H, 27 Février 2024

Good and conveniently located San Diego location. The rooms are comfortable and nicely decorated. Staff was prompt, professional and thorough. My daughter lost an earring outside the room and left the one remaining on the dresser. Housekeeping must have found the missing earring because they left it with its mate when they serviced the room. Above and beyond service. Also the free breakfast is nice.

Owner Response, 27 Février 2024

Dear Michele, Thanks so much for your thoughtful review of Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites! We're happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and humbled by all your kind compliments. It would be wonderful to welcome you and your family back anytime. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"stay for the zoo!"
joygardner13, 26 Février 2024

The staff was super friendly, easy check in and check out. The room was very spacious and clean. No negative comments. Breakfast was really nice although the apple juice was very watered down. Bed was comfortable and activities nearby were a great touch! Thanks for a great stay close to the zoo!

Owner Response, 26 Février 2024

"Reunited with my Sailor! Return of USS Carl Vison!"
LightPacker540521, 24 Février 2024

The hotel upgraded us to a suite free of charge. The suite was fantastic! Comfortable bed, clean and well-appointed rooms, spacious bathroom. Breakfast was amazing! We were able to choose from eggs, sausage, bacon, 3 kinds of waffles, cereals, toast, muffins, coffee, juice, etc.

"Delightfully enjoyed"
Dora M, 21 Février 2024

Everything was a delight. We enjoyed our stay very much. The rooms were clean and organized. We had complimentary breakfast every morning we were there and it was delicious. The only thing that went wrong one night was the elevator in the parking garage was not working so we had to take the stairs with a few of our bags but it was later fixed.

Owner Response, 21 Février 2024

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts on your recent visit. We're so pleased you had an enjoyable stay, and we appreciate you mentioning our impeccable accommodations and delicious breakfast offerings.

"Good experience"
Veronica A, 20 Février 2024

The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Didn't spend much time there, but was a good experience. I think the continental breakfast can use a little more work. Maybe more options? I liked that the freeway was just down the street so we can access it and get to our destinations quicker.

Owner Response, 20 Février 2024

Dear Veronica, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and highlight our clean and comfortable accommodations. We always welcome feedback and will be sure to look into your suggestions about our breakfast offerings. It was a pleasure, and please join us on your next visit to San Diego!

"Overall great stay."
Adventure61489059625, 20 Février 2024

Clean decent place especially for the price. Staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. Definitely busy and louder Fri and Sat. The room had an extra "living room" area with a sliding door, separated TV and pull out sofa. Great idea to e able to separate the kids from the adults for a breather once in a while!

Owner Response, 20 Février 2024

How wonderful it is to hear that our accommodations impressed you and provided you with ample space to unwind. Our housekeeping team will be pleased to know their efforts were highlighted as well. Thank you for being our guest, and we hope to host you in the future at Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites.

"Good value for the money."
Stay23160796007, 20 Février 2024

Room was clean and comfortable. It was nice to have all the shower amenities there. Breakfast was a typical hotel breakfast. It would have been nice to have something other than sliced bread to toast, maybe an english muffin or bagel. I did not use any of the hotel amenities so I have no opinion on the pool or hot tub, etc.

Owner Response, 20 Février 2024

Thank you for highlighting the value you found in your stay. We're glad you found your room well-kept and comfortable and appreciated the shower amenities. Your suggestion for a greater variety of breakfast items, like English muffins or bagels, is well noted for future enhancements. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide you with an even better experience. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Helpful at 1am"
Matthew W, 16 Février 2024

We were helped by the night courtesy staff at/after 1am because our other hotel fell apart (couldn't sleep because of other guests, even after changing rooms). It was a smooth process and I was finally able to get some sleep and a light breakfast in the morning.

Owner Response, 16 Février 2024

Dear Matthew, We're pleased to hear our team could assist you during such a stressful situation. It's great to know the process was smooth and you were able to get some rest and enjoy breakfast with us. We're here to ensure your stay is comfortable and restful, anytime you need us.

"Do not stay here!!"
cashardy21, 02 Février 2024

We were seriously scared being here. The hotel was ran down, in a bad part of town, and surrounded by homeless camps. Homeless people were wandering the parking garage. Only one elevator worked. The entire hotel smelled of smoked. Only two of our lights in our room worked. Paint was peeling off the walls and they gave us a sheet of paper saying they didn't recommend any of the surrounding restaurants and to not accept coupons slid under your door …!!! We didn't even stay the night, I did not feel safe there at all.

Owner Response, 02 Février 2024

cashardy21, I apologize for any inconveniences you experienced and can assure you our property is safe and secure for out guests as this is a hight priority for us. We receive positive feedback regarding our location as we are centrally located to most attractions and in an area where there are about a dozen other name brand hotels. While there is a homeless situation throughout San Diego, there are no encampments by the hotel, we have security patrolling the property, and they escort non-guests off property. We also underwent a renovation last year replacing furniture, carpet, linens, and drapes to give the hotel a more modern look. On the maps we give guests, it says to ask the Front Desk for recommendations as we tailor these to what the guest is looking for and usually recommend restaurants in the area to keep travel to a minimum and directions easy. We look forward to you giving us another opportunity.

"Best hospitality compared to all hotels and resorts. Couldnt be better"
StansburyRealEstate, 01 Février 2024

Ashley and the staff were the best hospitality I've had at any hotel at any star level. Rooms were clean, pool and hot tub were clean. Would happily stay again. Hotel felt safe, continental breakfast was good. Pools and hot tub were opem until 10pm.

"Overall Great stay!"
savageOs, 29 Janvier 2024

Enjoyed stay at Best Western! Complimentary breakfast was a highlight, and rooms were top-notch. Just be mindful of subtle road noise in freeway-facing rooms. Important to know: they charge extra for EV charging, not explicitly mentioned on their website or verbally communicated. Be aware of potential additional fees.

Owner Response, 29 Janvier 2024

"Marine Corp family friendly"
Veronica H, 28 Janvier 2024

I've been to many best Western and I will have to say that this by far was the best experience that I ever had my check in with easy with Amanda. She has the best customer service that I've had at a Hotel. We were there for my sons graduation for the Marine Corps. Within 40 minutes of us arriving of course you are exhausted. We were a party of six. We were working on getting a shower when we got a call from the front desk from Reanne. She said the people below were complaining of noise. She was kind and did not make me feel like we were doing anything wrong. She just asked if we were okay. I said yes and to please explain to the room below we just checked in. She said she would. She handled it perfect Then the room belo started hitting the ceiling so I called and asked to speak with Amanda and she continued handle it great . Just great customer service all the way around. even the housekeepers. Our room was clean and had three beds. The second night I asked for a second room because we had friends show up. We were able to get the room right next to us the house keepers had it prepared early for us because they as well had traveled. We will be up there again later this year, because my nephew will be going out to and graduating as well. I love you very much for my family to stay here so I will see you guys then thank you. The location is perfect. It is literally right off of the freeway. Plenty of parking they have a snack bar we can purchase and the microwave is in the lobby not in the room. That would be the only negative but the lobby was beautiful. I had a seating area. Lots of family sat there and had a drink to celebrate their family member's accomplishment.

Owner Response, 28 Janvier 2024

Dear Veronica, Thank you for your wonderful feedback on your stay at Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites.

"READ BEFORE YOU BOOK"
DonnaG174, 04 Octobre 2023

I searched high and low through reviews to pick this hotel. This was our experience. It was pretty clean-so we thought. First night, my husband slept on the sofa bed bc of snoring issues and saw next morning that there was crap on the sheet he slept on! Looked like someone who was in that room prior wiped their butt with the sheet!! Housekeeping mgr came in and apologized bc all linens are supposed to be changed. Apparently that was not the case. Tried calling down to lobby at least 4 different times. No one answered phone. The next thing was someone with a small child was in the room above us. Sounded like elephants running back and forth. Again, tried to call front office..no answer. This went on till after midnight. Breakfast was ok but be sure to understand you will get scrambled eggs with chicken sausage and reg sausage one day then a cheese omelet the next day with sausage and then repeat...for 7 days. They had waffles but was imppssible to get to machines. No potatoes even?? View was the pool bc I did not want to be on freeway side. I felt safe as the elevator needed a room key to get on in lobby. We were refunded $100 but that seemed very insufficient as my husband slept in filth and how much of a health issue that was! I will not stay there again.

Owner Response, 04 Octobre 2023

Dear Donna, Thank you for sharing your experience from your recent stay with us. We will absolutely be discussing your points of concern with our staff.

"Excellent Service!"
smurfilicious, 03 Octobre 2023

Can I say WOW to this hotel staff? I applaud them how they handle these crowds of people. Breakfast has a great selection of food items and quite a large room of tables to accommodate. Also, the staff was very consistent in keeping the food stocked and the tables wiped clean. After having an issue in the room, the front desk sent up a maintenance man within 5-10 min of my call. I am VERY impressed with how this hotel is being run. The room was large and clean, yes getting a bit old, but not an issue for me. The roads to get to the hotel are kind of confusing, but that's San Diego for you!

Owner Response, 03 Octobre 2023

We were so happy with our recent stay! Checking in was quick and easy, great directions were provided to our room, charges were well explained and the staff was friendly. Our room was clean, beds comfy and the water in the shower was hot! After the second night we requested housekeeping to tidy the room and it was done quickly while we were away.

"Not a positive experience."
d9294, 26 Septembre 2023

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 4 nights. It's right next to the freeway, so there is noise from that. There was a long line to get the free breakfast on Saturday morning, so we left. On Saturday night when we returned to the hotel, there was no place to park, so we had to park on the street. We were charged $23 a night for parking, which I thought was high. There was mold on the bathroom ceiling in the shower in our room #227. The hotel is rundown and shows it's age. I would not stay here again.

Owner Response, 26 Septembre 2023

We appreciate you staying with us and apologize for the inconveniences you experienced. Your comments have been shared with Housekeeping and they are double checking the room you stayed in and correcting and deficiencies. Even though you experienced some challenges, my team and I hope the very best for you and your family. If you were charged for parking for the 1 night that you parked on the street please feel free to call me directly I would be happy to assist you. We hope you will give us another opportunity so we can provide you with the level of service and accommodations that you were expecting. Kind Regards Vebi Rexhepi Front Office Manager

"Recommend Staying here"
samanthagray2023, 17 Septembre 2023

The beds were amazing and the duvets were like soft clouds. Breakfast was a great way to get us started for the day and the kids loved making their own waffles. The pool and spa were clean and tidy with towels available. We used the laundry and had no issues at all. Providing you have a car, you can get straight on to the highway to go anywhere. Getting around San Diego was easy. It was a $16 Uber from the USS Aircraft Carrrier back to the hotel, which I thought was decent. Thanks for having us.

Owner Response, 17 Septembre 2023

Dear Samantha, It brightens our day to know that you had a fantastic experience with us.

"Nice Hotel"
juanitapierson, 14 Septembre 2023

Nice room. A/C and refrigerator worked great. Bathtub was longer than in most hotels, so I enjoyed a relaxing bath. Decent water pressure. Excellent, helpful staff! The free breakfast was amazing. Best waffles we'd had in a long time. They offered regular and sugar-free syrup. Great coffee. Only problem was the soggy beds. Had to sleep right in the center where it was firm. We will stay here again.

"End of summer stay"
Michael M, 12 Septembre 2023

My kids and I had a wonderful stay at the Best Western Comfort Suites. The location was perfect. I would recommend staying in a room on the pool side as opposed to the freeway side. Very worthwhile and great location for San Diego activities.

"Taking Grandpa to the zoo"
K7259QGanthonyh, 12 Septembre 2023

The front desk staff was amazing very kind and easy going. Ashely (front desk agent) that help me mention my reward statues and offer 2 free water bottles Thank you so much. Room was clean & quiet. We will be visiting again soon!

"Awesome Amber"
dam304, 11 Septembre 2023

Front reception clerk Amber was outstanding…so friendly, welcoming and receptive to our needs. She referred to us as “the sisters” and, while working her 12 hour shifts kept an eye out for us and was so helpful with suggestions. She was definitely a positive “face of Best Western”

"Nice place"
Rebecca S, 11 Septembre 2023

It's a nice place, comfortable. The area has absolutely nothing around it so prepare to need to drive steady 15-20 minutes to get to anything like food/shopping. But the hotel itself served its purpose and was worth what I paid for it.

"Wasn't what i expected"
Janet O, 06 Septembre 2023

We stayed in a suite for 2 nights with an extended late check out and honestly we expected more than what we got their was no toothbrush no toothpaste like all other hotels we stayed at. The breakfast was the same repeated food and the toilet had issues aswell as the shower the water would not go down. The coffee maker was broken and water went everywhere when operating. How ever the front desk girls were amazing and very sweet forgot to get all their names. We tried to make the best of our stay but prolly won't be going back.

Owner Response, 06 Septembre 2023

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this hotel, and I must say it was a fantastic experience. The manager was exceptionally kind and made our stay truly memorable. He greeted us with a warm welcome and went out of his way to ensure that all our needs were met. The location of the hotel was also convenient, with easy access to nearby attractions and downtown.

"Good value"
John S, 03 Septembre 2023

I love the bunk bed, this place is perfect for large families with kids. However, it's a motel, that's old, has some maintenance issues. But the location and the bunk beds make it a good value. The staff are all really nice and the place is busy.

Owner Response, 03 Septembre 2023

"Clean and Updated Rooms"

Nice Hotel, clean and updated design. Was a shocker being Best Western and all. King bed was comfortable, pillows were a bit undersized for a king bed and very flat but doable. Overall a good overnight stay passing through town.

"We had a good stay."
Navigator150456, 29 Août 2023

Our stay was great. The rooms were well taken care of each day. The food was good at breakfast. The front desk staff was very helpful and accommodating. My only con was the stairwells are way too dark. They need more lighting. It was a bit dangerous at times. Please consider adding more lighting. That is my only downside to this visit.

Owner Response, 29 Août 2023

Having you here with us was so wonderful! Receiving recognition for our hospitable team, lovely accommodations, and delicious breakfast spread is always appreciated. Your suggestion about lighting is greatly appreciated, as we are always seeking new ways to improve. It was a pleasure having you here with us and we hope to see you again soon.

"Not so good"
Osvaldo Ulises M, 28 Août 2023

The service at the front desk was very low and they didn't have the intentions to solve our problems in our stay, there was not ice in almost any floor and the breakfast was insufficent about the chairs and the table.

Owner Response, 28 Août 2023

Thank you for your honest feedback. It is disappointing to hear that your visit fell short of your expectations. Providing exceptional service and accommodations is what we strive for, and we are sincerely sorry that was not your experience.

Clean hotel with a great continental breakfast not too far from the beach, downtown and the zoo. Staff was friendly and thankful to have housekeeping clean the room daily. (A must when traveling with kids)

"All-in-all, positive experience"
Rachel B, 15 Août 2023

Friendly staff, clean and comfortable accommodations. King/Bunkbeds combo was definitely kid approved. Included breakfast was good. Downside: we had to hook-up the cable TV that someone previously disconnected (likely not part of the normal turn-over checks). The elevator was broken; another guest was nice enough to show us how to re-set the door manually so that it would close/move. Day two, the elevator gave out all together. All-in-all, positive experience.

Owner Response, 15 Août 2023

Thank you for sharing your comments with us. We are happy to hear that you had a positive experience overall and appreciated our friendly staff members, clean and comfortable accommodations, and ample breakfast options. However, we do apologize for the trouble with the TV, as well as the issues with the elevator. Thank you, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve you again in the future! Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Good location"
Sztain, 11 Août 2023

Very nicely upgraded. Good location. Easy freeway access. Not walking distance to restaurants but many not too far away. Only bad issue was that we stayed two nights and did not have our room cleaned after the first night.

Owner Response, 11 Août 2023

Thank you for being our guest. With a convenient location near the freeway, our property is just a short drive away from restaurants, and our team is always happy to provide dining recommendations. However, we apologize for the lapse in housekeeping, and we're grateful for your feedback. If your travels bring you back our way, we hope you will stay with us again. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Horrible experience"
mamaof32023, 10 Août 2023

I'm not a review writer but I feel this one is necessary to save you from a less than desirable experience. Check in; 30 min wait at 10:30 pm Hot tub dirty, cloudy No hot water for shower Breakfast was overcrowded, no seating, picked over Thought I'd book this based on proximity to sea world & price with kids (bunk room)... spend the money on a high rated place! This one was a disappointment. I will never be staying at a BW again.

Owner Response, 10 Août 2023

mamaof32023, Thank you for staying with us and I apologize for the inconveniences you experienced. We maintain our pool and hot tub on a daily basis and unfortunately, over the summer when guests come back from being out and utilize the hot tub to relax, all the sunscreen, dirt and oils come off in the water. Depending on how many people are in the hot tub it could take a little time for the water to go through the filtration system and come out clean. We are constantly cleaning the filter so the oils don't build up and clog it. We have 199 rooms and over the summer the vast majority of rooms are families so we will serve 600+ people for breakfast. With that many people eating and a limited space for seating it can cause a wait sometimes. We recommend going before 8am when it is not as crowded. We look forward to you giving us another opportunity the next time your travels bring you back to San Diego.

"Mostly positive"
Howard P, 09 Août 2023

Nice place, very centrally located. My only complaints are that the fitness center is microscopically small, the front desk was often inadequately staffed, and the breakfast area was pretty much overwhelmed by 8:00 or 8:30 in the morning.

Owner Response, 09 Août 2023

Dear Howard, Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your recent stay. We're glad you found our central location appealing. We apologize for any inconveniences you experienced with our fitness center's size and the staffing levels at our front desk. Your feedback is important, and we will certainly take it into consideration as we continually work to enhance our services. Our breakfast area was overcrowded during peak hours, and we apologize for the inconvenience. We truly appreciate your insights and hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for an improved experience in the future. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Soccer tournament weekend."
Andy S, 07 Août 2023

Front desk staff was friendly. Housekeeping was great. Breakfast was popular and busy but the lines went fast and everything was restocked constantly with no issues. Hotel was recently remodeled to give a more modern day feel. We had a king suite with bunk beds for the kids and it worked great.

Owner Response, 07 Août 2023

Dear Andy, It was a pleasure hosting you at Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites!

"The morning Manager Works so diligently"
Oli699, 06 Août 2023

We were impressed by the “Morning Manager” and how much he cleaned the breakfast room, Even though he was wearing his Suit and used gloves all the time. Sweeping and picking up trash and food and wiping tables and chairs. We never saw a manager who works so diligently He has a humble heart ❤️ I'm giving him a 100 percent and five stars review he deserved it.

Owner Response, 06 Août 2023

What a wonderful review to receive! We love to hear about our staff members, and it brightens our day to know that you fully appreciated our breakfast manager. We'll be happy to pass your compliments along to him. Safe travels, and come back soon! Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Team Travelling "
mjmcginness, 03 Août 2023

Room size was good. Beds comfortable. Breakfast was good although very busy and often had non guests in attendance. Struggled for fresh towels, often having to request them multiple times before receiving them.

"Good Location and Value"
MARLENE S, 02 Août 2023

I love staying at this location. Its a good convenient location near everything in the heart of San Diego. The Beds are very comfortable , I visited with my 2 young daughters and felt safe. The breakfast and breakfast room is very spacious. Lots of hot and cold food items. The pool and Spa is great, towels are provided, the pool is also heated so that's a plus. Love staying here and will come back.

"Great experience"
nicole20232023, 02 Août 2023

Close to MCRD, nice property and awesome staff. The beds were so comfortable. Only downfall was the parking was really tight and longer vehicles should park on the street or have a separate area. Other than that it was a great experience. Would stay here again.

"Nice hotel for the price :)"
Gerry C, 01 Août 2023

Clean rooms and beds. Nothing spectacular but also no issues. Breakfast was decent and plentiful. Staff was very friendly but expect a little wait if you go to the front desk. As I mentioned this is no fancy place but if you are looking for a reasonable family spot in the SD area, this is a good choice. Area is so/so but the hotel felt safe. Right next to the freeway so convenient as well.

Owner Response, 01 Août 2023

"Special birthday weekend"
Meems07, 01 Août 2023

Stayed with family for a child's birthday and Amber and Jessica decorated the room and made our daughter feel very special. Amber was so responsive to our needs and made sure to follow up with us days prior to our arrival. She made the trip very easy and we truly appreciated all of her hard work.

"Reasonable"
I1394GPstephenm, 28 Juillet 2023

Host were very nice and would immediately take care of any issues you may have. The room was clean and the bathroom as well. Had to ask for room service due to them only doing it every two to three days again which was no problem. Was located in a very good area with lots of things to see and do. The price was definitely reasonable during this time of the year. Others were asking way to much. Enjoyed my stay.

"My go to San Diego hotel."
hankinfl, 25 Juillet 2023

Great location within 10-15 minutes of the airport, convention center and SeaWorld. Very clean hotel. The front desk girls were real professionals...they got you checked in fast. The Remy restaurant located right behind the hotel is is 5-star in my opinion. Pool and grounds were regularly cleaned and maintained. The breakfast included scrambled eggs, waffles, yogurt, cereal and more! You won't need to go anywhere for breakfast, which can be a big money saver for a traveling family. This is going to be my go to San Diego hotel.

Owner Response, 25 Juillet 2023

Dear Hank, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. It is an honor to have earned a five-star rating from you. We are thrilled that you had an overall great stay with us. Knowing we have earned your loyalty makes us flattered. It was a pleasure to have you as a guest, and we look forward to seeing you the next time you are in San Diego.

"Great Place to Stay! Very Convenient and Quiet"
Scenic47141254008, 24 Juillet 2023

I had a good time and felt safe. I want to take a moment to acknowledge a very committed worker there. Her name is Pauola? She was all over the place. From the moment I arrived, I passed by the laundry window and caught her working solo. My family and I decided to go for a late around 9-10pm after a long day. We took our room towels as instinct because it's late in the night and from our experience, there will be no towels in the pool area and we were right. But to our surprise, she must have seen us, because she came out moments later and brought us some towels and put extra ones in the cart for anyone who might decide to come out to swim. After washing up, I called to ask for extra room towels and at the door was the one and only, Pauola again. I swear maybe she had a twin. We decided to stay in and give the pantry a visit, however, the member stocking the pantry accidentally spilled a glass container drink and it came crashing all over the floor. She knew the safety of the guests and workers and called for a clean up right away. Here comes Pauola once again and I observed them working together to clean up the mess and Pauola sweeping up glass and surrounding areas they thought glass might have spread to. I observed Pauola and I can say she is a very hard worker and very attentive. She never made any distasteful facial expressions when having to clean up a spill or thought twice about bringing extra towels to guests when the pool is about to close because I can honestly say, a lot of hotels would never do this as the pool is almost closing and members will rarely bring out towels unless asked. She did that as if we were her family and that is how she wishes her family would be treated while staying at a hotel. She did it with a smile and that is not something I see in a lot of hotels that I have stayed. God bless her energy because to have to run up and down floors and maintain customer expectations for the hotel, is a lot of work. you can't satisfy everyone but she does her best and goes the extra mile to represent the establishment she works at.

Owner Response, 24 Juillet 2023

Nothing makes us happier than receiving praise for our team members! We are elated to hear that Pauola was instrumental in your positive experience and took your stay beyond your expectations. She is a true representation of the hospitality we pride ourselves on, and we have no doubt she will take great care of you again when you return to Best Western San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Inn & Suites. Until then, we wish you well! Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Fabulous stay"
Kathy N, 23 Juillet 2023

Excellent stay even though the hotel was fully booked for Comic-Con. We stayed gratis on Best Western Rewards points and were treated no less than fully paying guests. In fact, as BW Rewards members they rolled out the red carpet for us and everyone from the Manager Andrew and front desk staff (whose names I cannot remember all of them) and security and housekeeping went above and beyond to assist us as we are disabled. We will not hesitate to stay there again. One of the finest Best Western properties we have ever visited.

Owner Response, 23 Juillet 2023

Dear Kathy, We're so happy to know that you had an amazing experience with us! We will pass your kind words along to our team members, as we know they will be honored to hear what you had to say. Thank you, and we hope to have the chance to host you again soon. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Fair Experience"
Okeema M, 23 Juillet 2023

The hotel had two small elevators that took forever. There was only one receptionist checking in and checking out people, which, took forever. However, the complimentary breakfast was great but there were not enough tables to sit and eat.

Owner Response, 23 Juillet 2023

Dear Okeemam, A lovely breakfast is often the best way to start the day, and we're glad you enjoyed yours with us. We strive to offer a quick and easy check-in for all travelers, and we will look into what may have caused a delay during your visit. In the future, we hope to welcome you again for a better overall experience. Andrew Cooper, General Manager of Best Western Inn & Suites San Diego Zoo/SeaWorld Area

"Amazing Breakfast "
Rhonda G, 20 Juillet 2023

Rooms were clean..Breakfast was Amazing..only issues..no clock in rooms and No USB outlets..in this day and age that's ridiculous!..Have stayed in a few hotels this year and they All had usb outlets usually in the lamps base!

"Nice location and good for kids"
SDvacation2023, 20 Juillet 2023

The room we stayed in needed bathroom repairs, we thought the rooms were renovated according to the advertisement, but they weren't recently renovated or ours got missed. The bunk beds are cool for the kids and our family of six were accommodated, but we had four young kids. The doubles were full size, and the bunks were twins. Breakfast included in the price, but not parking, they charge that in addition to the room. The breakfast was decent, but the coffee was a disappointment, it tasted watered down and weak. We stayed three nights, and each day was the same experience. I'm not sure why they use heavy blankets in July, waking up drenched in sweat isn't a good feeling with the A/C blowing.

"Getaway"
Patty M, 19 Juillet 2023

Nice Clean hotel, checked in really late at night, but they still managed to accomodate me with parking. Pleasant staff the only con was the elevator, it gets stuck at times. so i took the stairs instead.

"We stayed at Mission Bay resort with 32 students on a soccer tour. Awesome location, awesome hotel. Definitely recommend"

The breakfast is great!! This hotel is centrally located and is within 10 min to Seaworld, San Diego Zoo, Old Town, lots of restaurants, San Diego LDS Temple, and 20 min to the beach. The hotel pool and hot tub were great. My kids said that it is their favorite Best Western. That being said, if you use the stairwells instead of elevators, beware of the weird smell in the stairwells).
