Other Options for Lodging in San Diego

February is the slowest month in San Diego for tourism, so lodging rates are lower than other times of the year. Check out www.airbnb.com or to look at rentals.

When you look at the rentals- look for places using the zip code: 92109. For example, Mission Beach is exactly 1 mile from the conference venue.

The Dana and Mission Bay Hyatt are both within walking distance of the each other.

There are hotels in Mission Valley near the venue, be aware that there are a few interstates merging in that area, so traffic can get heavy during the work week, Mondays-Fridays.

Other nearby locations are Point Loma, Mission Beach, and Pacific Beach.

If you have a vehicle, or are renting one, there are way cheaper options in nearby cities of Lemon Grove, La Mesa, National City, and Chula Vista- those cities are all within a 15 minute drive from the conference venue.

Transportation

Public transportation is not as good as in most other cities. You can either rent a car, take a cab, or use one of the many driving services in San Diego.

Car2Go is another option, when finished using it, you can leave the car anywhere and the company will come retrieve it https://www.car2go.com/en/sandiego/

If you like to get around and explore, but don't want to rent a vehicle, our trolley system does have stops at most of the tourist destinations including downtown, the Gaslamp, SeaPort Village, Old Town and Little Italy. San Diego Trolley Info: https://www.sdmts.com/schedules-real-time-maps-and-routes/trolley

Unfortunately, the trolley doesn't stop at Balboa Park (where all the museums are), San Diego Zoo, Sea World or any of the beaches. To visit those places, you will need to take a bus, cab, LYFT, or UBER to and from trolley stops.

Weather and What To Wear

San Diego is famous for its mild Mediterranean climate. The state of California has the most micro-climates of anywhere in North America, so be prepared for as much as 10 degree+ temperature changes within as little as 10 miles.

During the month of February, the temperature (F) is generally high 65 and in the lows of 50 in the evening. While the rest of the U.S. and Canada is thawing out or still under snow- the weather is great here!

Since the temperatures can fluctuate, dressing in layers is recommended. Winter is our "rainy" season, so bring a light rain jacket just in case. If it does rain, it's usually a light drizzle.
