QuoteHairball Quoteangee What about the Holly Crest Hotel, for LA, near LAX? Never heard of it, but based on the location and the reviews on Tripadvisor, I would say no. Scroll down for reviews - ---NO--- I wouldn't recommend any of the one and two star motels/hostels/dumps around the stadium - again, it's not the friendliest neighborhood. Agree with this.

LA Kings fan here. Kings have 9 prospects in the tournament scattered on all teams except Russia and Germany. Have enjoyed watching the games so far (particularly here in LA County, where COVID is worse than ever). Looking forward to watching Byfield (Team Canada), Turcotte and Kaliyev (USA), Bjornfot (Sweden) and the others at Staples Center for years to come. 4 games tomorrow...expect USA

Quotekv2915 I would have preferred PETCO just because of location and that football stadium is a huge dump. BUT its a Stones show and I will take it. Does anyone know if there is rail service out to the stadium in SD? There is light rail transit stop at SDCCU Stadium parking lot steps from entrance gates. Easy connection at both Old Town and downtown with Amtrak and Coaster trains.

Quotemtaylor I saw that one. That person also has the concert at Petco on 5/17, which isn’t possible with the Padres playing that day, and all week prior (which doesn’t allow for stage to be built, etc.) And states later on that thread that the Padres will be at spring training in Peoria, Illinois in March.

The other has no mention of venue, but still, May 17th....hmmmm....a Sunday.....beautiful San Diego.... old stadium about to be demolished...can this be true?

Would love Petco Park again as they did for the Zip Code opener, but guessing maybe the SDCCU Stadium? Seems odd now they did Petco when most of the venues on Zip Code were stadiums.
