Recent Best Western Bayside Review: "My fiancee and I recently stayed at the Best Western Plus Bayside Inn in San Diego for two nights in a non-smoking King with a balcony.
GOOD POINTS
1) The staff were very friendly. During check-in they made us aware that one of the elevators was undergoing maintenance and apologized ahead of time for the potential delays (there weren't any really, just a lot of stops on the way up and down).
2) The room was spotless! (Even the carpet!)
3) Little Italy is just around the corner (there happened to be a festival during our stay) and the train station/trolley stops are a few blocks away (there are trains to shore locations).
4) There are several restaurants to choose from nearby (almost too many!).
5) The harbor is incredibly close and makes for a pleasant walk.
6) The continental breakfast included scrambled eggs, potatoes, oatmeal, cream of wheat, cereal, as well as pastries, fresh milk and tea, coffee and variety of juices. A really nice spread.
7) The self-parking was in a covered-lot adjacent to the hotel.
8) Our price was incredibly reasonable for the service and condition of the hotel.
9) The view from the balcony was great (as opposed to another wall, which we've had before!).
BAD POINTS
1) Not in walking distance from the Zoo (which is huge, by the way) or any other Balboa Park attraction. But, as I said, the trolley stops are very close (there is a free shuttle service around Balboa Park once you get there).
2) The self-parking is $10 per night's stay at the hotel. This isn't really a bad point for me as city parking can be very expensive, but it is an additional expense if you have a car.
OVERALL
Our stay here was very pleasant and we would recommend this hotel to anybody visiting San Diego.
TIPS
There is a fantastic hole-in-the-wall Mexican food joint called "Taco Express" two blocks around the corner from the hotel on State Street. The staff is overwhelmingly friendly, the food is delicious and the prices are unbeatable."
