Any thoughts?
Have you been to San Diego before?

Rancho Valencia is a nice place, but not convenient to really explore San Diego proper. I like the US Grant, it right downtown, within walking distance of the Gaslamp quarter and the water. The service there is first rate, plus it's a pretty cool hotel, lots of history.
