"Very convenient to DelMar racetrack. Quiet property. Staff needs improvement in customer service. Not very friendly. Also we were traveling with two other couples and requested at least one late check out by one hour as our train didn’t leave till 12:40 pm …. She said she needed to let housecleaning make that call…. Never offering to store our luggage….housekeeping said no!"

"Updated and modern hotel with comfortable beds and rooms. Location is nice as you can exit the hotel to the street behind the hotel; then the walkway and stairs to the Solana Beach are easily accessible. There are no nice views to the sides of the hotel but again the location with walks on the beach and Del Mar restaurants are nearby. Staff was great at this hotel."

"Room was clean and well lit grounds at night. Unfortunately check in was rough. Staff was so rude. While I was waiting to check in I was given a pool key. I went back to the reception and someone else was there. I tried to explain I had a key for the pool but I wanted to see if I could get a room key now and finish my check in. He interrupted me mid sentence and said "are you trying to check in? Let's cut to it so I can help faster" mind you there was no one else in the lobby. Rude and short for no reason."

"The property was absolutely beautiful, we had a great stay. The only challenge for was the temperature in the guest bedroom. The ceiling fan was not operational so we had to get creative with the box fans that were available. However, that wouldn’t stop us from coming back again. You will love your stay here!"
