Property as a whole was inviting and nicely done and kept. The pool area although small, was also nice and no charge for the cabanas! Pool nice and clean. No housekeeping at all in pool area-no towels, dirty glasses etc. for both days we visited and I had to go walking around to try to find someone in housekeeping to get towels. Room was nice, clean-but starting to feel dated and carpet was rolling up in center of floor and patio door needed maintenance. No microwave in room. Wasn't bad...but won't stay here again with all the options in Temecula.

Disappointing but

We did not get checked in until 6:20. It was a complete circus at the reception desk. Rooms weren’t ready. Staff was very apologetic. I didn’t realize that I had a Murphy bed for almost $400 per night. Rooms are dated. I woulda’t stay here again.

Nice, quite, and beautiful location in the heart of wine country. Pool was nice but the pool attendant was GREAT! She made our stay a great one. Still don't like that our room isn't made up unless I know what time they should come at check in. Other than that, awesome time.
