The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

8/10 Good

"Very good room was a little tight but"

Paradise Point Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed my time at paradise point hotel. I would say that my main complaint was the distance our room was away from the pool. Restaurants and the lobby. It made it a bit of a hassle, even with a vehicle. Plus the nightly fee of $45 for parking on top of an almost $50 resort fee per night was excessive and surprising. If staff were more willing to help give rides back and forth to our room it would have made my time here more relaxing. But with the heat, it wasn’t very enjoyable."

Bahia Resort Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice, clean rooms. Perfect location for Bayfest festival. Only thing i didnt like was that the restaurant/ bar closed before thier posted times. Other than that great place to satay."

Old Town Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff and great breakfast"
