My wife and I split our trip to SD into 2 days here, two days downtown and 2 days at La Jolla. It was a great way to explore the city. I ran from different locations every morning, and then we explored what SD had to offer during the day. This location is probably the most central if you want to stay in one place, but we recommend moving around at least a bit. We used Uber to move around instead of renting a car and this worked out great.
We chose this property for the location. It is a very short walk to the beach and walkways that run along Mission Beach and Pacific Beach. You can walk directly out to the Bay side which I actually found more peaceful. The hotel provides chairs to the beach on the bay side. We ended up spending most of the time walking around Mission beach. Short car ride to Ocean beach where we spent a morning watching dogs at the very nice dog beach. Pacific beach area and restaurants have a strong spring break feel that didn't do much for us. The property itself is very pretty, the rooms are spacious enough, but the rooms are somewhat dated. Service was friendly (we received a cheese and cracker basket on our first day). We had breakfast at the property once. Food was fine, but very slow.
