Big Disappointment

Sell day passes to locals and pool is overcrowded. Not enough servers, food is served in paper trays equivalent to fair food. Valet is $60 and takes over an hour to get car. Ate dinner at onsite restaurant and was told we had to wait for a heater (took 45 min) we were freezing. Ended up leaving hotel early and didn’t even stay the night. Big disappointment.

It was fine, nothing great or wrong. rooms were very basic for such a price- tried to watch the padres game but couldn’t find seating in the sports bar- seems like locals take over leaving no space for hotel guests.

This is a great resort located just south of Downtown San Diego. Our kids loved the lazy river, water slides, and wave pool! This is a very kid-friendly resort with a classy touch. We had a King Suite Bay View room, and it was very spacious and well designed!

Valet was full on my first night of arrival due to some event. I was forced to park in the convention parking lot with all my bags and luggage which is about a 15-20 minute walk. I thought this was pretty ridiculous due them claiming to be a "high end resort". The self parking cost is also what you would expect in Beverly Hills, $45 per night. They refused to sell me extra wrist bands for the water park, with the excuse you need to buy extra passes 7 days in advance. That wasn't listed anywhere on their website. So if your planning to have friends come meet you at the hotel to enjoy the pools, think again. Food prices are extremely expensive, min cost of a drink is around $20. All in all I wouldn't mind paying the high prices if the customer service was at the same level of a high end hotel. This place wants to be in the Ritz class at an average price of $450-$500 per night, but it's no where near that in regards to experience.

Overall we had a good, fun experience at the hotel. We spent both days at the pool with our son. He had a blast. The water slides, wave pool, and lazy river really made it a unique experience. This was a staycation for us so the location didn’t matter but it wasn’t the most scenic. The “Mountain View” rooms really just see a building roof, large dirt plot, the freeway, and shops. Areas for improvement * check in line was long and it took awhile once we got up there. We did get upgraded to a higher floor and was able to check in early though which were both pluses! * more umbrellas at the pool- spots were all taken very early. Tons of seats in the sun. Just invest in some more umbrellas. * food service at the pool was a bit slow and our waitress seemed very confused and had a hard time remembering our order * food selection at the pool was really heavy. More lighter fare options would help! * inconsistent application of pool rules- some staff didn’t enforce rules, others did. We didn’t know the first half of the day our son who was under 48 inches was supposed to use a life vest in the wave pool. On the kids water slide one staff member made them go one at a time and closed the door in between each kid. Another guy left the door open and had 2-3 kids at a time going down slides. Could tell some people would get frustrated by the inconsistencies in the rules. * forced to wear wrist bands overnight if you want to use the pool multiple days in a row. Felt like a cattle

Customer service front desk: Terrible. Someone in the beginning helped us her name is (Yadid) she was disaster. I requested early check in and she didnt give me the room and we had only 14 minutes to 4pm so i had to wait with my 2 kids, then she gave me the map for the hotel without tellingme where we are on the map or describing anything.. At 4:01pm I went after she talked couple minutes with BS things she invited someone else her name is (Nadia) and that person was totally different than Yadid. She helped us immediately with the room. Food in general sucks.

Walkable food options outside the property are few. Lots of construction adjacent to the property. Hopefully future development will enhance the neighborhood and support the resort clientele. Food options in the hotel dismal. Not all food venues open yet. Room service option also dismal. Menu options at the open venues too eclectic. Not enough variety options for those wanting typical food items and those with children. High price for poor food quality. Food from the lobby restaurant/bar made three out of three of us sick to our stomachs. Saving grace were the staff and chefs at the Steak House who brought us mashed potatoes, bread, buttered pasta and ginger ale for dinner. Our server Ruben was the best!! The room was lovely. The water park fun and not crowded.
