I like Priceline and have done well with using it for the downtown area - the only disappointment was once getting the Holiday Inn on PCH (right by the Residence Inn)- but for the price I was not complaining...

Don't forget the hotels in Carmel Valley refer to their location as "Del Mar". So a Priceline hotel in Del Mar could be the Doubletree or the Marriott there.

We want to and haven't ruled anything out but it looks like we need a pot of gold or close to it. We have three weddings also to fit in one in Boston one here and one in Hawaii. The latter of the three is for sure ( our daughter's ). At least this is inside her younger sister's graduation from San Diego High was outdoors in the football stadium. Between them chasing everything that kept blowing off the tables and the planes coming in it was quite a show. I'll be sure to message you if we can swing it.

It seems you end up driving wherever you stay in San Diego.

I'm sorry I can't comment on the motels you mention, but we just returned from a trip that included two nights at the Homewood Suites near Del Mar--about ten miles north of San Diego. Our one-bedroom "suite" was perfect and breakfast was a big, satisfying spread. Monday-Thursday a light meal and drinks are served in the evening.

This is a really good place which now has excellent I-5 access.

We have been pleased with Homewood Suites in Chicago, Scottsdale, and now San Diego. On the other hand, we never know what we're going to get when we book at Days Inn or Best Western, so we have stopped using them. However, if these were my only choices, I would go for the Best Western.

hula..congrat's on your daughters wedding in Hawaii!
We all will be here for you for SD.
itravelsome,
I think getting a room at the Marriott/Doubeltree would be a great deal at $50-60 and can't beat the location even though it is across the freeway of Del Mar..but sounds like you might want to be downtown.

The Trains/AMTRAK are extremely loud TONIGHT, Downtown/San Diego @ 9:55pm & 10:20pm ... not good. The 1st one was leaning on the Horn at each intersection ... Sheesh ...

Barbara-You are right. The Del Mar hotels include the ones in Carmel Valley. Still a good deal for a nice area. Hhaven't heard back yet from the OP which part of town they prefer.
