I also noticed the other day that the San Diego autograph collection hotel also has rooms available and I could use my free night certificate. Which hotel is better to stay at? The imperial Beach one or San Diego's autograph collections?
Imperial Beach is a category 6
San Diego is a category 5.
Thanks
I haven’t stayed at either hotel but I’ve lived in San Diego for over 40 years and am familiar with IB. You may want to do some research-
“In recent years, the city of IB has made efforts to really revitalize different parts of the city, and the beach area itself has really benefited from this the most. However, other parts of IB can still have a little bit of a run down feel, so may not be for everyone. IB also has a growing homeless population, but that is true of many communities in San Diego County. You may already know this but because IB is so close to Mexico, the beach has more water closures due to pollution than other beaches in San Diego, although this has improved in recent years.
One potential downside to IB is that it is not very convenient for getting to other parts of San Diego County quickly.”
BTW, the SD Autograph is Cat 6 I believe.
