You could also try the Marriott Gaslamp. I believe it's a little easier to book rooms with them directly, and theyr'e not that much further from the convention center. They're still in the middle of the action!
I've stayed at the Marriott Gaslamp during SDCC before, and can confirm: it's in a great location for getting to the Convention Center AND being near all of the restaurants and the action downtown.
Just park in an airport lot, and uber/train it back to the hotel. Saves you a decent chunk of change.
Just curious (and sorry if this doesn't belong here), but how is Ubering back and forth during SDCC from outside the Gaslamp? We had an issue last year where our driver was only 2 blocks away (in the Gaslamp), but it took her nearly 20 minutes to get to us. I imagine it would be worse trying to get into the convention center area to drop off.
The first year that I did Comic Con in 2016 we were staying outside the Downtown area and I used Uber to get everywhere, I didn't have a problem at all but I would always go to the corner of 1st and Island to get an Uber and I would get them to drop me off at the corner of Front & W Island. I think that max that I had to wait was a couple of minutes.
I bet there were more problems/issues with Uber/Lyft last year because of the Harbor Drive closure.
