This hotel feels misleading and absolutely not worth the money. We paid extra specifically for a bay view room with a balcony and instead were put in a cheap room overlooking the parking lot with no balcony whatsoever. That is not a minor inconvenience — it is literally not the room category we booked and paid for. To make things worse, the hotel barely provided basic toiletries. No lotion and missing standard amenities you would expect even from lower-priced hotels. The entire stay felt low quality and poorly managed. Parking was another joke: extremely limited spaces while still charging $15 per night. Paying extra for downgraded accommodations and inconvenient parking made the whole experience frustrating from start to finish. If you book an upgraded room here, don’t assume you’ll actually receive it. We definitely did not.

Booked a room with partial ocean view, but only saw a tiny tinny sliver if a tall person stood on top of room sofa all the way at the end of the window and looker around the building corner and over a hill. Not even close to a partial view. Paid for breakfast in the booking but got the runaround with that too. This is a newly opened hotel of only four days so maybe they’ll get things sorted out. Very nice hotel and comfortable beds.

The facility is beautiful and the staff are friendly. There were problems though. The biggest issue was that we were denied the complimentary breakfast. One of the reasons I booked a stay at this property was beacuse of the complimentary breakfast that was included in the Expedia information and subsequent reservation. We were told by two different staff members that because we booked our stay at the Courtyard by Marriott, we did not receive breakfast. Apparently breakfast was only for Residence Inn guests. Totally embarrassing for us and extremely disappointing. Furthermore, there were no pool towels, so we had to use our bathroom towels. We asked for more of those, they were never delivered to the room as promised. Lastly, the bedsheets were intolerably scratchy. I slept poorly because of it.

The ac doesn’t work, and since they are overbooked, they even cannot change the room, and we have to stay in the cold room whole night. And the smell in the room makes people uncomfortable.
