The hotel was beautiful. The bed was super comfortable and the room was nice. The cooked to order breakfast was a very nice touch for the week. Housekeeping seemed to come at odd times and never the same, one day 9am, one day 3pm, one day 5pm, but it’s a huge hotel so I guess that’s understandable. The bartender was awesome and super knowledgeable. Room service was nice. If I requested something from the front desk like more towels, they had it to my room within minutes. I would definitely love to stay here again. It’s located not far from La Jolla cove which was my favorite part of the trip. It seemed like it was literally 15 min from everything.

The hotel was very clean and well maintained. The happy hour was fun. The kids enjoyed feeding the koi fish during the morning feeding time. Very family friendly. Breakfast was great. The parking was not working properly. The keys were not linked to the machines so you had to call the help desk to open. A few times took up to 5 min of sitting in the car to open.
