Beds were very comfy.The breakfast options included freshly made waffles, cereal, juice, small muffins and oatmeal. Hot beverages available were tea and regular coffee. I would recommend adding fresh fruit and a protein as an option. The room was clean, AC works well. Staff at check-in and check-out were very pleasant. Old Town San Diego is within walking distance.

Staff were nice, friendly and accommodating. The room appeared clean, except the floor could use some attention. Breakfast was fair, given that it was continental. It would be nice if there were apples and bananas available. Parking is $15 a night, but we were able to find parking on the street.

Poor property maintanance

The condition of the property was rundown. Inside the bathroom the door jam appeared a repair had started but spackling never cleaned up or painted over, holes in the corner. I walked around the outside of the property and noticed wood topped fencing around the pool rotted or missing.

Clean basic older Hotel

Well kept older Hotel. Covered parking is well lit and staff was friendly. Breakfast is very basic. Coffee, cereal, waffles, juice, toast and a few muffins. That's it. Nothing to really complain about but if you're looking for a more premium experience, this is probably not your hotel. Additionally my motorcycle helmet was stolen from my bike within 90 minutes of my arrival. Probably some of the local homeless. My fault. I should have secured it as soon as I arrived.

From the moment I checked in, I felt welcomed and taken care of. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make my stay comfortable. My room was spotless, well-maintained, and offered everything I needed for a relaxing visit. The location couldn’t be better—just minutes from Old Town, downtown San Diego, and all the major attractions. It made exploring the city so easy without worrying about long drives. Parking was convenient, and I always felt safe on the property. What really stood out was the overall atmosphere: cozy, clean, and inviting. It felt like a home away from home but with the service of a quality hotel. The value for the price was unbeatable, especially compared to other options in the area. I highly recommend the Western Inn San Diego to anyone visiting the city—whether for business, a family trip, or a weekend getaway. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Hotel room was clean, the building is a bit outdated, the floors could use some repairs. We were on the second floor and heard footsteps above us late at night. Other than that the hotel was really close to Old Town attractions and the check in process was smooth.

The hotel is very nice from the outside but the rooms can use some updating. The beds were very comfortable, but the aesthetics is not cool. Some parts of the rooms were missing the trim, the ac made a lot of weird noises.
