Top El Cajon Hotel Reviews

The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

8/10 Good
"Pros: friendly stuff, shout out to Lupita! Clean and comfortable beds and pillows. Personal care products in the bathroom and by the sink, including shower gel. Good breakfast with eggs and sausages. Nice pool and hot tub areas. Good and strong wi-fi, but no cable, just streaming services. Cons: not enough rooms ready by the check-in time. Microwave and ice machine just in the breakfast area- one of each for all the hotel guests. One elevator for entire hotel. No gluten free items available with breakfast. No hooks or shelves in the bathroom- nowhere to hang your towels or wet swimsuits."
