In regards to valuable baggage, you can always check it at the concierge of a hotel across the street. They don’t check if you were staying at that hotel. The convention center also has a baggage check. But either way, it’s a risk if you have valuables. If you are driving in, you can park your car downtown and put your valuables in the trunk.

Thanks for your question and I hope it helps.

It’s good to hear the SDCC isn’t too hot.

I don’t think I’ll go back to Dragoncon. They’ve got it spread out across three different hotels that are several blocks apart. So I barely could figure what panels were in what hotel and all that walking outside there in the heat meant you looked like you had been jogging or something and covered in sweat.

Jeans are ok, I’m been going to SDCC off and on the last 30 years and it’s never gotten that hot and sticky at the same time. 2006 was hot , but not muggy. The last few years have been cool, but you are going to do a lot of walking.Don’t know of any storage lockers, I tried finding any info about lockers at the train station or at the bus station no luck there.

And are there any good small storage units there close in San Diego on the trolly route? I have to go cheap, so will be staying in a super cheap hotel that is close enough to get on a trolly, but don’t want to leave valuables in a crappy hotel room all day, i.e. laptop. So was thinking of renting a small storage unit for the week that would fit the laptop so I can drop it off and pick it up on the way back to and from the hotel. Maybe even just a bit bigger to leave my suitcase. I figured that would be safer than leaving it in a super cheap hotel.
