The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

10/10 Excellent
"Had a great time! I booked a last minute stay due to an issue at my last hotel, i booked it around 10:45pm and arrived 15 minutes later to find that my room card, parking permit, and all other info was already set up. Shiela at the front desk was so kind and friendly. The room was clean, the mini fridge is perfect, the wifi works great, and there is a microwave in the lobby for 24/7 use. The continental breakfast was awesome with coffee, juice options, and even a fresh waffle bar! I didn’t get to try the gym or the pool but they both seemed clean and i’ll definitely be retuning!"
