Amidst the devastating wildfires raging through Los Angeles County, a wave of solidarity has emerged from San Diego. Local hotels have opened their doors to needy evacuees, offering discounted shelters. With reports from ABC 10News indicating that a staggering 180,000 residents have been displaced, the outreach from these San Diego establishments offers a semblance of relief in the face of the unfolding tragedy.
San Diego's hoteliers did not hesitate to reach out to those affected by the fires quickly. Charles Cho, the General Manager of Omni San Diego, has strived to provide evacuees with rates significantly lower than usual. In a statement obtained by ABC 10News, Cho said, "We just want to make sure we share our rooms, since we have them, with those who need them the most," affirming the hotel's readiness to welcome evacuees even from afar.
It's not only Omni San Diego stepping up in this crisis; over two dozen local hotels are assisting. According to information detailed by the San Diego Tourism Authority and shared by FOX 5 San Diego, these properties are providing special rates that prominently reflect this notion of communal support in times of dire need.
