Decent budget hotel centrally located between downtown and north San Diego. Very close to several local attractions (Zoo, Balboa Park, Seaworld, downtown, etc) Free continental breakfast included, although it's your usual half-hearted attempt at a breakfast we find so frequently at budget hotels now: juice, danishes, and cereal. Wifi throughout the hotel. Rooms were clean and quiet. more

It was a splendid summer vacation that my cousin’s family and I took in California. After surfing around the web, we chose to stay at the Best Western Golden Triangle Inn for 4 days and 3 nights while in San Diego. The staff was cordial and had us checked in within 5 minutes. Upon entering our room, I noticed that... more

The place is convinienty located off highway 805. Rooms are clean, staff is couteous and morning break-fast is superb. I had forgotten razor, so when I asked about it at the front desk, the person checked with me if I would like the shaving cream too. That was good to go that extra step to satisfy customers. Break-fast is much... more

We arrived sooner than check-in time, and indeed they made us wait until a little before 3 pm before we could get our room. So no early arrivals. Once we got our room keys, we made our way to the second floor via elavator (we were too lazy to walk up the stairs). The room was nice and clean, the... more

You get even less than what you pay for. Yes, this is a clean budget hotel. The rooms are smaller than average, the beds are uncomfortable, but that is to be expected given the price you pay. The real problem with this hotel is that the parking is not only horrendous but DANGEROUS. There is one opening into the parking... more

We strive to make every guests stay enjoyable and comfortable. Few hotels in San Diego offer complimentary parking, which we do. Although our parking lot is small, we have ample parking for all our guests. Breakfast runs from 6am to 10am, and is stocked periodically. We make every effort to make sure it is completely stocked. Also, all the beds...

This is a clean hotel for anyone on a budget. If you want to spend your money on DOING things rather then on where you sleep, then stay here. We stayed here when we went to the San Diego Zoo and Legoland. The hotel is right off the 805, easy to get to and NOT hard to miss (despite what... more

This hotel is basically a Motel 6 with gold colored paint. The rooms were musty smelling and small. They didn't have any soap, shampoo's, extra towels, etc...I would not recommend staying here. True it's close to the freeways, but that's about it. Their pics and summary are misleading. more

The hotel has just undergone a complete renovation, which included new carpeting, new sinks, bedding, towels...etc. We are happy to provide extra towels, shampoo any time a guest requests it, but stock the room as though 4 people are staying in it (4 towels, 2 bottles of shampoo).

I was expecting more even with the relatively low rates (paid about $100 in early October). The reception was ok, not big quibbles, the guy who did our checkin was quite helpful. The location was quite decent, although I find quite easy to miss the entrance: it is right at the intersection of two freeways and if you are coming... more
