Because I perform weekly at the National Comedy Theater (www.nationalcomedy.com) in San Diego, I am constantly in the need of finding a cheap hotel nearby for an overnight stay. As such, this tip is to tell you where not to go.
DO NOT STAY IN DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO
You can find some awesome dealt at 3 star and 4 star hotels in Downtown San Diego. We stayed at the US Grant hotel one weekend for $80/night. What they don't tell you though when booking the room is that to park in the hotel, it will cost you $20/night. Now I'm paying $100.
During a conference, I stayed at the Grand Hyatt near the seaport and parking was also $20/night.
It's not worth it. Old town and hotel circle are very fine choices and they don't charge for parking.
SEASONAL CITY
I've also never seen a city that had such radical seasonal rates. It is very expensive to stay in San Diego during the summer and the weekend of Comic Con.
