Jenelle

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service
The front desk staff was extremely rude. I interacted with at least three different staff at the front desk to ask basic questions. The language that they used, their tone of voice and their lack of caring to resolve my concerns was disappointing. One of the front desk staff even hung up on me on the phone. And I was not being rude at all. I spent a lot of money to stay there, plus they charged me $150 a night of hidden fees. I’m a resident of Carlsbad, I live just miles from the property and I’m ashamed that this is happening in my community. However, I would like to add that the restaurant/bar staff and housekeeping were all kind and professional. It is unfortunate because I frequent the restaurant for date nights. However, I will never be going back to the hotel or the restaurant. Very discouraging.

So, first night I slept on dirty sheets. Met another couple who slept on dirty sheets their first night. My credit card was charged hundreds of dollars not authorized, which the resort, and VISA took care of. Was NOT the relaxing trip I had hoped for due to multiple hotel fraudulent charges.

The hotel is very comfortable and clean, perfect for family. Just a warning on the chandler restaurant host’s incompetence, poor management and will make your family wait for no reason or less than 50% occupied tables.

Check in was terrible! It wasn’t ready by 4pm. I called by 4pm and they said my oceanfront room was not ready. They said they would call me once it’s ready. Close to 6pm, they have not called me so I called them. The room was ready but they said they were busy this the reason they were not able to call me about my room! This check in gave me a migraine. As soon as I got to it room, I took my medicine and slept the night. Checked out at 8am. Don’t even get to enjoy the property because of the bad service.

It was very nice being an ocean front property. Expect a very late check-in as the rooms are not ready even passed check-in time. There were hand prints and lip prints all over the sliding glass door leading to the balcony. The room refrigerator is not really a refrigerator for food or beverages but for medications, so it is not very cold at all.
