The Ocean Park Inn is a 72-room mid-range hotel right in the middle of all the action in Pacific Beach. The hotel is located on the boardwalk, steps away from the sand and the water, and surrounded by restaurants, bars, and nightlife. While the rooms are basic, amenities like Wi-Fi and a decent continental breakfast are free. The pool area -- complete with a hot tub, loungers, and a beachfront view -- is also very nice. Those offerings, plus reasonable rates, pack some value for travelers. Ocean Park Inn isn't the neighborhood's only beachfront hotel, but it does beat out its competitors in housekeeping. For even better views at similar rates, the condos at Capri By the Sea are also worth a look.

Old Town Inn is a motel-like, Spanish-style budget property that's been run by the same family for three generations, since the 1940s. Its most obvious drawback is its unattractive industrial surroundings and highway setting -- however Old Town San Diego and its Transit Center are just 10 minutes away on foot. Rooms are unremarkable, but the inn has a few perks: notably free breakfast, Wi-Fi, and parking plus a DVD library. There's also a swimming pool.
