1. If you have a car, you might get a better rate without high parking fees a little away from downtown.

3. I have to admit that I was reticent to stay at here at first because in my experience HI's are inconsistent at best, however, the rate offered was too good to turn down.

6. I stayed one night at the Holiday Inn Downtown last weekend, and here are my reviewsPro- Renovated rooms (it is clear that rooms are renovated, as the bathrooms are very modern, beds are comfortable, and even plasma TV!)- Lots of towels in bathroom- Very modern looking bathroom- Good service- Clean decor- Cheap rates- Free internetCons- Off-beat location: it is quite far away from the heart of SD such as the gaslamp district etc- Very tiny lobby and not very modern- Low ceiling heightThat is pretty much it - It is a relatively modern Holiday Inn that was renovated - so don't be deterred by TripAdvisor rating.

9. The room rate was relatively reasonable since San Diego is an expensive city.

10. They can't compete with the HI Expresses that offer you a room at a lower rate that includes breakfast.
