"Very nice property with great staff. Got upgraded to a higher room with pool view. Self park was easy and saved a few bucks from the valet price. Easy 10 min drive to Balboa Island. My kid was in the bathroom forever so I had to pee in some of the glasses provided. So essentially a two bathroom room."
