Comfort Inn Sea World Area

Comfort Inn Sea World Area

10/10 Excellent
"This is a great Motel. Spacious rooms. Very clean, comfy beds. Great showers. Off street parking with a security guard at night. Close to shops, takeaways, even a couple of good restaurants, Target, Ralphs etc all within walking distance. Includes breakfast with your stay. It has a gym, reverse osmosis water machine and laundry onsite. Wonderful, helpful and very courteous staff. Even a grassy area out back for the kids to sit in the sun. The price is right, and plus it's about 10 or 15 minutes from the Airport. What's not to like? For the last 2 years this has been my number 1 choice to stay in San Diego."
