Limited on-site dining options with one restaurant
“The Atwood Hotel in San Diego sits conveniently in Hotel Circle, a prime spot for accessing the zoo and SeaWorld, though you might rely on ride-sharing to get around. The recently updated rooms are spacious, but I noted some reports of thin doors, so pack earplugs if you're sensitive to noise. For the price, it's a solid base to explore the city; just don't expect a luxury experience.”
