Travelled with family and small children
Disliked: Staff & service
The rooms are spacious and nice, the property faces the freeway so you can’t escape the noise but the surrounding hills are beautiful. The various seating areas are comfortable and lovely. The staff don’t seem to be trained in customer service. Each contact we had was plagued by either a lack of communication (court reservation made for different facility), lack of accommodation (late check out) or simply inept (didn’t place takeout order made by phone until I arrived 10 min later). The phones in the room didn’t work, the kitchen outlet fuse blew, the TVs are not able to stream, and the pools are too cold for most adults. So much potential if they can engage in the business of travel.

Liked: Cleanliness
We checked in late evening upon our arrival but were immediately disappointed when we sat on the edge of the bed. After our first night, we called the front desk to note the bed was in horrible condition with a very obvious hole in the middle of the bed. The agent said she spoke with her manager and would send their engineering team to replace the mattress rather than relocate us to another room. This seemed odd but we played along. No change in beds or room change was subsequently offered. The worst night’s sleep and horrible restaurant onsite. Would not recommend to others unless you have no other nearby options and want to stay in this area.

I stayed 4 nights and never received any house keeping. I called and left messages, called front desk, called concierge, and never got anyone that came to the room to bring the soap that wasn’t originally provided or take out the trash. We had to go find someone to get more toilet paper as the room came with 1 roll. I’ve stayed here dozens of times and never had this terrible service. My room also wasn’t ready until 7:30pm on check in because they were waiting for it to be cleaned. Clearly having an issue with staffing the housekeeping but the service we received was terrible. I was there with a party that had 4 rooms. One of the rooms got cleaned one night. I think asking for a room with hand and dish soap isn’t too much to ask for. The resort is beautiful and the amenities otherwise are wonderful. Bit the housekeeping is a disaster. I had a toddler in the room with dirty diapers and I couldn’t get anyone to take the trash, even when I put it outside my door and called. Super disappointed to be traveling and have all of these issues. The room comes with a full kitchen but without any soap there’s no way to eat, clean, and wash things. Despite all my calls during the stay, I was told at check out that unless you are a vacation owner they don’t clean your room. But Expedia says housekeeping is provided.
