A while back a buddy & I got a nice room at the Holiday Inn Downtown (the round one just off I-5, near Little Italy) for something like $70 by doing a bid on Priceline. When you bid, you're submitting to several hotels so you can get some interesting responses. Another option is the old YMCA, near the Amtrak station, has been converted to a hostel but I don't think it's affiliated with the international system. Friends have stayed there and say the price is right but rooms are pretty tight with your bike. Can't recall the name but if you Google hostels in san diego it should come up.

When I'm in S.D., I've always stayed at one of the Youth Hostels in town <http://www.hiusa.org/usa-hostels/ca/sandiego.shtml> . I like the Point Loma one, but it is kind of out of the way. Downtown one is great location, but kind of loud. Swing by Joshua Tree if you're out this far away from home, you'll love the climbing and riding there, too!

I have been thinking about visiting San Diego and may head out to join this ride. Any recommendations on where to stay for a few days, and/or what part of town is best to stay in. I'll be riding and maybe rock climbing.
