Top Whaley House Museum Hotel Reviews

The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

6/10 Okay

"Basic hotel very close to highway and hard to get to with traffic. Good AC and big TV with just streaming options. Comfy bed and pillows. Secure parking lot where you need your room key to enter and exit. Small toilet and weak shower and tap pressure. Hand soap and body wash containers empty and even not affixed properly. Shower drain seemed rusted and there was hair, not cleaned properly. Decent breakfast with scrambled eggs and sausages though the sausages were cold!"

Best Western Seven Seas

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is exactly as advertised. The room was clean, excellent staff, pool was heated, and the restaurant staff and food are excellent. The treadmill in the gym didn’t work, but that’s common in a lot of hotels. It would be better if breakfast was included and a microwave in the room."

Fairfield Inn & Suites San Diego Old Town

6/10 Okay

"The location was a 5 minute walk to Old Town, but the attractions were closed. The room was spacious but they gave us an accessible room that we did not reserve for. The bathroom looked clinical with all the accessible parts. The second day, they fixed our bed and cleared garbage and gave us fresh towels but the floors were not cleaned. there were used floss on the floor. The room location was very noisy and could hear people opening and closing the corridor doors. Breakfast was the usual and it was good. One of the bedroom lights did not work. I did not like the room. I could not sleep in because of the noise. We did street parking and no need to pay the 30 dollar parking. Staff was good. NOTE: the credit card hold is for 5 to 7 days."
