When we walked into the room, it smelt like mold. The track of the sliding door was black. Was only given 2 wash cloths & towels. VERY limited parking especially when returning at night. The time the pool closes is early, and when we arrived at 1045 it was packed. For the cost of the room, this was unacceptable.

We had a one night stay at the hotel as our son was racing in Mission bay and it was a short walk to tie course. Precious 3 years we had stayed in a neighboring hotel but had never been happy with their service We contacted the hotel the day before we arrived and asked for a room away from any wedding receptions are parties as we have a daughter with special needs and sensory issues We arrived at 2pm and went straight to reception. The receptionist was friendly and welcoming and explained we had been kept away from where the noise would be and we could move into room straight away. Room was clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay We ate at the Firefly restaurant that night and had a great meal and the kids enjoyed their food as well. A choice of swimming pools and hot tubs with a movie night all made for a great nights stay. A great improvement on our previous years vacations. Will not hesitate to stay there again when we are in the area Thank you for accommodating our daughter, it made for a great nights stay

We had a good stay. The pool was nice to sit and read but the wait staff around the pool was sparse and not super friendly. They also had back to back weddings both nights we were there that were super loud. They did shut down at 10 but I would probably request a room not near the venue next time. Breakfast at the onsite restaurant was very nice. I would stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay here - area was so convenient for everything we had planned. Our 5 year old loved the pools and the little "towel creatures" that housekeeping would leave! The room was perfectly sized for the three of us, and the staff was all very friendly and helpful! We would certainly come back and stay again!
