The rooms are in need of a serious upgrade, as everything feels very outdated. The bed and pillows were not very comfortable. The phones didn’t work, and we couldn’t figure out how to connect them to the landline. The bathroom sink and toilet were extremely low to the ground (around three feet tall), so using them was uncomfortable — I’m 5’7” and my husband is 6’3”, and we both had to bend down. The AC was an older unit and very loud throughout the night, which made it hard to sleep. The location was nice and easy to find. The best part of our stay was honestly the heated pool.

First I want to share my experience with the staff during the check in process. It turns out guests have to pay $25 parking fee per night and sign the disclosure which states the resort is not responsible for the damages caused to the car during the stay. When I asked for the copy hotel staff refused to provide at the beginning stating that this is an internal document and they cannot provide it. About 30 minutes back and forth they finally gave it me. The hotel rooms were outdated and the there were security concerns. The door to the hotel from the parking area was broken and would not shut all the way. My overall experience staying there was horrible and I would never book a room there again.

The room was just OK. The refrigerator didn’t work. In fact the door was open when we arrived. We closed it and it still never got cold. The room was just OK. The walls of the hallway were bare. The help was taking down relic pictures of Desi Arnez, Lucille Ball Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin. It just seemed very vanilla. Very sad. I’ve stayed here numerous times. There was just no pizzazz to this stay! Pool was nice. The food at the pool bar was good but again this hotel was just very vanilla very plain no pizzazz actually was kind of depressing!

This was the worst experience I’ve ever had in a hotel. Unsanitary old. There was holes in all of the walls very disappointing when I spoke to the front desk attendant, I asked speak to Manager. There was no manager on property. when I asked you about all the holes in the walls and the uneven floors she said that they recently took steps to hopefully renovate as they were just acquired by new owners. This guy lace was gross and I want my money back.

This hotel is an iconic landmark. Desi and Lucy Arnaz put a lot into this place. If you are a nostalgia fan you will love this place. Sadly the amenities have not caught up to the times. The room was big with a feel of being part of the rat pack. The a/c was a throwback too. The shower was tight and once i got over the drastic changes of water temperature I got the feeling of being back at grandmas house. You knew exactly when someone flushed the toilet. The place had only one elevator making it very inconvenient if your room was in the back of the hotel. Even though I parked in the back I had to walk past my room to the front lobby, up the elevator, and then walk all the to the back of the hotel. Another throwback aesthetic of this place was the blatant disregard of our DO NOT DISTURB sign on our room by house keeping. The sound of door pounding and “house keeping!!!” being yelled into my room reminded me of the good ol days in bootcamp. Overall our experience felt like we traveled back in time. The kicker is the prices here are the only modern thing it has going for it.

Yes, this hotel apparently had used some kind of industrial solvent to clean the carpet in our room. When the sliding glass door was closed, the fumes were really bad. The air conditioner or heating did not help as it just recirculated the air. I got sick and now have chemically induced bronchial pneumonia after two days there.

First of all, the staff were all great! It's all downhill from there. Luggage carts were in horrible shape. One of the elevators was out of order for our whole stay. The hallways were dirty and all the linens and towels were thrown outside of the rooms onto the hallway floors. There was a lot of buckling on the floor vinyl and where there was carpet there were stains and open seams in places. I saw a room service tray sit on the floor for at least a day (it was still there when we checked out.) The room itself wasn't too bad other than peeling wallpaper, the worst shower curtain that did nothing to keep water in the shower and no shampoo in the dispenser. The balcony was so narrow, there wasn't room for a chair to sit outside. The heater was so loud, we had to turn it off to sleep. Our first room had lukewarm water in the shower and we had to change rooms. One of the maintenance men told me they had a problem with hot water getting to that side of the hotel. There was no bell assistance. The fitness center had no towels, no trash can and no sanitizer to clean the machines before or after use. We enjoyed sitting poolside with excellent piped in music, but there is a lot of disrepair. Friction tape around the spa was peeling so bad that I was worried some of the patrons may trip on it. The pipe barriers were rusted so bad that there were huge holes and severe staining on the concrete beneath them. Exterior doors were all open and didn't require a key/card to enter.

Everything was just fine! Nothing to write home about. My room was directly above the dumpster, which they emptied as I was checking in. The entire hall outside of the rooms smelled of the dumpster. The ice machine on my floor was broken; the elevator was out of service, and the kicker was when I tried to go to the hot tub in the evening, and I visibly watched an employee dumping Clorox bleach into the hot tub using no measurements. The staff was nice and the room was clean, but it just seemed as though they were just letting the place fall apart.
