Just a heads up...

Embassy Suites San Diego Bay - Downtown
601 Pacific Highway, San Diego, California, 92101

The hotel is very close to the airport - about 3 miles. The hotel does NOT provide a shuttle back and forth, but this past spring, San Diego Int'l Airport signed an agreement allowing Uber and Lyft drivers to pick up passengers. If you are not an Uber or Lyft customer, there are traditional taxi companies as well.

If you are renting a car and intend to park it at the hotel, be prepared to pay for the privilege. The fee is $45 per night!
