Hotel location is great but had back to back issues with the first room we were given and then moved to another room that was dirty and smelled like mildew. Was told it was a premium room but there was nothing premium about it. Construction is still going on and they start drilling early in the morning. Contacted the front desk manager Alexander and the general manager Nathan about all the issues ...

No in-room coffee maker or kleenex or spare toilet paper. Excellent morning restaurant service. Ocean views from rooms, bar and restaurant are beautiful. Rooms need a re-fresh. Beach only steps away is beautiful. Only 10 to 15 minutes from the best of Monterrey and Carmel.

Pros (+) Closeness to beach and heated pools
Cons (-) Didn’t sleep at all the first night because of screaming baby in the room next to me and thin walls. Moved rooms and had no working heater on wall or floor. Just said “error” and we froze all night barely slept again . Staff simply said oh I’ll have them check on the that. Had higher hopes for the amount of money spent.

Pros (+) Lovation
Cons (-) Part of our group didn’t get their room on time. Then the hotel gave that same room to others so people walked in on them. My room had only half roll toilet paper. No drinking cups nothing. No extras at all. Door had to be slammed shut. Tub wouldn’t drain. Shower barely worked. They told us no non fires yet they were having them and completely smoked out our room. Would NEVER stay here. By the way...

Pros (+) Location was amazing and the lounge/lobby/bar area was beautiful!
Cons (-) The rooms smelled musty/moldy and for the price were not worth it. I expected a nicer room, better toiletries, and a better bed. It felt like a motel.
