The University of California San Diego Medical Center is one of the most prominent and successful research hospitals in the country. Hopefully you won’t need their services, but in any case, staying in a discount hotel near the UCSD Medical Center in San Diego is a great way to visit the city without having to pay a premium to stay right in the heart of the tourist trap areas.
Still, the hospital itself is worthy of exploring and visitor interest. It’s responsible for teaching the many hopeful graduates of UC San Diego’s prestigious medical school, and as such, is the breeding ground for prominent specialists in many of the world’s most needed disciplines, most notably trauma and oncology. After you pay a visit, however, it’s just a short walk to the shores of Venice Beach with all its thrilling attractions, or the night life of downtown San Diego. As a result, this is just an all around great place to stay while you’re in California.
