Entire Cottage Steps from Beach and Bay with deck
Mission Beach
8.0 out of 10, Very good, (2 reviews)
"The property was a nice property, but there was a problem with parking. I had no communication until 30 minutes before check-in even though I tried to contact the host numerous times and had Expedia tried to contact them and couldn’t get a hold of him. There is no air-conditioning which sucked because it was hot. All they have is fans and the shower is so tiny. That is very hard to shower, but it’s in a great location."

Top El Cajon Hotel Reviews

The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

8/10 Good
"The staff are excellent, especially behind the front desk went out of there way to help had a group of 7 showed up early stored are luggage safely behind the counter and found us a nice restaurant for lunch. The hotel was recently remodeled so they are still working out some of the kinks that didn't get finished, the pool and hot tub are nice, the exercise room could use updated equipment and another tread mill but it got the job done, my only complaint is towels are too small and they don't clean the bathrooms everyday you have to call."
