Beach Resort Cleans Up Act
Review From: editorialreviews@nextag.com, Jun 9, 2008
"A recent multi-million dollar renovation seems also to have included an attitude makeover at this beachfront luxury lodging. In the past, the luxury rates really paid more for the sand and ocean bordering the property, rather than the unspectacular rooms and service inside. The change, among others, includes palm trees in the lobby and updated California casual decor in the 340 rooms. Don't expect ornate detailing: The design is all about being laid-back.

What hasn't changed is the fitness center and spa, already fabulous in true SoCal style. That boasts heavy-duty cardio machines and the requisite yoga and Pilates classes, as well as full spa services, steam room, and sauna. The hotel also has a splendid heated outdoor pool, lobby bar, lounge, and restaurant.

The tiny balconies remain the same, and the basic hotel layout still lets guests peek inadvertently into one another's rooms when the shades are pulled back.

As for service, in the past that has ranged wildly from indifferent to warm. It's getting warmer to match the sunny weather, although staffing issues can still mean waits at check-in or poolside. Definitely scour for deals. Also, check with the hotel on its credit card deposit policy, as it is used to charge a chunk of change in advance."

Proximity to fun
Review From: Olav, Jun 9, 2008
Small rooms w/ basic needs items. Comfortable beds, very old and inadequate bathrooms. Very friendly staff and free breakfast. Parking is a joke but the short walk to the beach, pier and 3rd street promenade as well as shopping center across the street are very convenient. Somewhat overpriced for what is being offered.

I will never go back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review From: John Dough , Jun 9, 2008
First off the parking there is a scam. The room wasn't even close to the pictures on the net. We found above the mirrior in the bathroom a package of illegal drugs, above where our kids had their toothbrushes. The trundle bed had no bed portion and a hide away bed was provided. I'm sorry but my kids aren't going to sleep on a dirty bed, so I slept on the couch. The hotel has potental but it's in dire need of management and in the least halfway skilled maids and maintenance. Oh, and the cable isn't cable, it's satellite and crappy signals the whole time. Mold in the shower grout. One of the windows had no screen. If you do go make sure you check the beds and couches for needles and drugs!!!
