Possibly not your cup of tea but when I did my US tour in 2006, I tended to stay in Motel 6 motels which are budget hotels. When I arrived in San Diego (27 June) I found one in the city centre with a public car park alongside. It was within walking distance of the seafront (150yds) and the city centre which was small enough to walk around. Don't miss the Gaslamp Quarter (full of restaurants and bars), the Fat Bottom Microbrew Pub, the Patrick III blues bar in F Street, the Old Town State Park, an aircraft carrier the USS Midway, the Aerospace Museum and much, much more. After riding across the deserts of Arizona, the cool sea breeze off the Pacific at San Diego was very welcome.
