What time of year do you plan to come? The best part of San Diego depends on whether it's the summer/autumn (when you want to be near the beaches) or at a time of year when it will be too cold for water sports.

Dear Elena: <BR>I'd stay at the Crystal Pier Motel in Pacific Beach. The "motel" in the name is a bit misleading: the place consists of comfortable cottages built on a pier above the beach. <BR>You have easy access to a spectacular beach, restaurants are within walking distance, Mission Bay and other attractions are only a short drive away. <BR>4500 Ocean Blvd. <BR>San Diego,619.483.6983 <BR> <BR>For a pricier alternative, you could try the classic Hotel Del Coronado. It's on an island/peninsula west of San Diego and has a truly grand beach. <BR>1500 Orange Avenue <BR>Coronado, CA <BR>619.435.6611 <BR>There are lots of other possibilities. San Diego is such a great city!
