Decent place to stay
My stay didn't start off too well. Driving into the parking lot I noticed that the hotel was next to the freeway and specifically asked the front desk clerk to place me in a room across from the section closest to it. Instead the clerk put me in a room a couple of doors down from the end nearest to it. I ended up trying to deal with it as it was already late at night and didn't feel like making a big deal of it. Even with the air conditioner running throughout the night the freeway noise comes into the room loud and clear. Also, the room I stayed in had a bed that was horrible. The springs pushed into my back and I got a horrible night of sleep. Luckily, I got moved the next day and the bed and room was much better. The room was quieter as it was in the section farthest from the freeway and the bed easier to sleep in. I had read reviews of other hotels in SD having bed bugs so I made sure to check both rooms for them. I found none. I would consider my room to be very clean. The rest of my week stay was uneventful and the front desk staff was very courteous and helpful. Rancho Bernardo is definitely a good drive away from any of the major attractions in San Diego. I'd definitely recommend renting a car if you plan on going to any touristy spots.
