While I have never stayed at the Holiday Inn Mission Bay, I have stayed a few times at the
Holiday Inn Express - Sea World Area, which is quite close (about 1 mile) to Sea World. It is a pretty nice little place . . . small, but nice. There is a real small parking garage underneath the hotel and "overflow" parking on the street, but it is on a dead end and off the major traffic path. There is also a real small swimming pool and a hot tub. Like I said, small. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif[/img] But it really is nice!
Each time my parents go to San Diego (and any time I have been there with them since about 1992) that is where we stay . . . in fact, last time my mom called to make a reservation, the receptionist said "Oh wow! It's nice to have you with us again! Geez, what it this, 15 years that you've been coming to visit us?!" [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif[/img]
