"Good overall"

"Check in was smooth. I asked for an extra water but it wasn't delivered. No one explained how to get out of parking lot at the end of our stay and the gate tried to collect money from us even though we already paid. I ended up running back to the front desk and then they just told me to hit the help button. The pool was nice and warm and clean. Would have liked a hot tub. "

"Acceptable "

"It was great "

"The road noise is a problem for light sleepers. Also the hot water did not work properly in the room. Had to let it run for 15 minutes or longer before I was warm"

"System was down so we couldn’t check in. The pool is clean and not overly crowded. The breakfast was excellent. "

"First time here. Older place, built in the 80's, so it is a bit out dated in terms of the overall design. Rooms were not ready at check-in which was at 4pm. Not due to overbooking or being overly busy, but general housekeeping times. Didn't get in to the room til close to 5pm. Good thing the wife and kiddo were able to access the pool while waiting. Front Desk staff were a bit stressed and not so jovial. There are about 5 pools onsite, 3 out of the 5 were packed, but the one up on the mountain near the owners lounge was clean and spacious. There is another pool near the fishing pond that was not crowded at all and had an uncrowded recreation area. Canyon Grille restaurant was decent but not great. Over priced for the quality. I ordered food for pick up one evening and while waiting, 4 waitresses + a manager were complaining so much in front of me and other guests about their serving areas. Fishing was a fun activity and very unique. I had a great time with my little one fishing. No bites, but the experience and memories is what it's about. Lastly, if you have to work at all during your trip, the WIFI is awful. No reception and very slow. Wife had to go to San Marcos to a Starbucks for a quick zoom meeting. For the price point, it was ok. TBH, I would rather spend the extra $ and head over to our usual MarBrisa in Carlsbad. Better amenities, area restaurants, cleaner and less crowded pools, close to Legoland with its own back entrance, and staff is always nice and upbeat. "

"The room was not the greatest, as soon as I went to grab a wash rag from 3 rings in wall the ring fell out, the floors needed to be swept, there was no comforter & the sheets & blankets were stained!! There was mold in the bath tub. There was a gap underneath our door to go outside so we had to keep a towel there so no critters would come in & the 1st night NO HOT WATER!!!! Oh and the best part is in the middle of the night going to the bathroom & running out of toilet paper & finding out they didn’t leave any extra in the room for you!! The parking lot had a lot of weird people walking around there too. But the staff was really nice & there was plenty of parking there for the plus side of it all!! "

"Very convenient property and staff is nice. We love the food court, it’s only 6 min from Lego land and six min from the beach. Second year staying here for spring break"
