- Room was spacious - The Inn is very close to Little Italy and other major San Diego landmarks (Seaport, USS Midway, Airport, Zoo, etc.) - The WiFi keeps getting disconnected and we had to keep re-authenticating - The television was old - most modern TVs have Netflix, Prime, Apple TV apps - There seemed to be water issues in the bathroom especially with the shower pressure(very low flow) and the flush - The hotel does not provide water (even extra bottles that we were willing to pay for)

I recently stayed at the Best Western Plus Bayside Inn in San Diego, and while my experience had some positives, it also fell short in one key area. The room was very clean and well-kept, and the bed was quite comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The staff were accommodating and pleasant, always ready to assist with any requests. The pool area was a nice feature, providing a great spot to relax. However, the breakfast that was included with the room was disappointing. The quality and variety left much to be desired, which was surprising given the other positives about the hotel. Overall, while the accommodations and service were commendable, the breakfast experience was underwhelming. If this aspect were improved, the hotel would be a solid choice for a stay in San Diego.
