“Holiday Inn Express San Diego Airport-Old Town has an enviable location, mere minutes from the airport and within walking distance of Old Town. I found the secure parking and functional rooms reassuring, but the real advantage is the consistently friendly staff. While the breakfast service seems challenged by high demand, the convenience and attentive service make it a worthwhile consideration.”
