Not worth the price. Dont expect a bar of soap. You will get a commercial hand soap dispenser instead. Body wash in the shower was empty. Not refilled when housekeeping came in. Crumbs on the nightstand upon check in. No AC

Boil water advisory posted yet we were only allowed 1 bottle for 2 people upon arrival. retrieved water cup by cup from lobby. Hotel should hv forewarned us so we could bring appropriate containers. Some inconsiderate moron smoked marijuana on our floor so we had to switch to another floor due to allergies. Pillows extremely uncomfortable & old towels need to be updated.

Got into my room & thermostat didn’t work, stuck at 67. Reported it to the front desk & they brought me up a portable heater, that also didn’t work. Called down again and asked to be changed rooms & they brought me another heater, she said they were having trouble with the boiler! You’d think they would’ve warned me on my way in

Always enjoyed my stays at the Highliner until this past weekend. Maintenance was replacing window all day on a Sunday & other concrete work that was loud & when I told front desk that you $400 for weekend away for peace & quiet and someone is drilling concrete all day on Sunday, it's very upsetting. All front desk said was, oh he'll be done soon. 5hrs later the hammering & drilling stopped. So much for a relaxing Sunday.

The views were wonderful from the top floor on the ocean side. The bed was comfortable. However, there was no central air or fan in the room, or in the bathroom, so it was difficult to control the temperature and felt stuffy. The balcony was nice but would have benefitted from a screen door.
