Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disappointed Despite Hardworking Staff
The staff were courteous and worked tirelessly, but management decisions consistently undermined the experience. Staff parking lines the end of the two-mile entrance drive—a cluttered, unprofessional first impression that set low expectations the property unfortunately met.
I paid a significant premium for Diamond Club, expecting elevated service. While the assistants helped (Ivan & Enrique were great) with reservations, the "Diamond" rooms disappointed. Hallways showed wear, and food plates sat outside rooms for 12+ hours—not the attention to detail expected when paying extra for premium status.
Every restaurant visit involved extended waits for seating, service, and drinks. This reflects poorly on management, not the staff, who were stretched impossibly thin. At check-in, before receiving my room, I was pressured to schedule a timeshare presentation. I'd already paid premium rates—why pitch more memberships before I've even seen my room? The nickel-and-diming continued: wristbands replace keycards, but lose yours and face substantial replacement charges.
I spent four days at the Waldorf Astoria next door. The difference was night and day—impeccable maintenance, proper staffing, no upselling. Premium pricing should deliver premium experience. Here, it doesn't. Management prioritizes profit over guest satisfaction.
