The overall experience was great. However the pool needed to be cleaned. The amenities could have been improved. For example, only some of the rooms have refrigerators, but they don’t tell you that when booking a room.

Gross / dirty - yuck!

Location was great - however it was a dirty nasty gross room ! We have already had this taken care of but it was a very big disappointment The rooms are so outdated and dirty , bed is on a piece of plywood - It’s not a suite - didn’t even have a fridge in the room , I would not spend this amount of money on these rooms ever again!

valets were very good. service was decent. but the condition of the rooms was awful. no window coverings - even in bathroom. Ancient, dirty furniture. keycard worked half the time. front desk said it was an old system and not to put phone near card. my 'suite' looked nothing like the picture. 60 bucks a day to park. almost $1200 for 2 night stay (room only) - more than Hard Rock in NYC! Great location though and like i said, valet guys were really nice and helpful. but management really needs to do some MAJOR room upgrades cuz it was awful.

This place is overselling itself. It is a thoroughly decent small, not luxury, hotel next to a beach on Balboa Peninsula, that is it, period. It is NOT a resort so their $30 resort fee is misleading (as it is with virtually all hotels) and just a trick to get you pay more for your room.
