The Atwood Hotel San Diego - SeaWorld/Zoo

10/10 Excellent
"The location of this hotel is excellent. We had a wedding to attend downtown San Diego and could not have found a better location or price. The parking is also a huge bonus as parking downtown San Diego, whether staying in a hotel or just driving into downtown to park for a few hours, is extremely expensive. The hotel is very convenient to nearby eating options, located just on the other side of the freeway, just a few minutes away. The only thing we would have changed would have been to request an upstairs room. The walls are thin and the person above us was walking to who-knows-where. A ton of walking and footsteps for a hotel room, that's for sure, for an extended period of time. We will definitely consider staying at this hotel again if we need a place to stay in San Diego."
