Had a great time. The room was very spacious and clean. The hotel staff was very friendly. Very impressed that the entire hotel is "green" and all of the lamps were LED.
Parking lot is very safe with round the clock security.
great romantic getaway

The hotel provided a great shuttle service to cart us around for free due to the fact we had no vehicle with us! Great pool area to lounge around and swim in! very friendly service. Great sushi bar restaurant in hotel.

We stayed here for a week over Christmas while visiting family. We received an upgrade to a pool view room that had no working TV or safe, but both were fixed shortly after caling about the problem. The beds were very comfortable and the room was certainly worth the amount we paid. This is an excellent and convenient location. The grounds were nice and although it was too cold to use the pool, it looked nice. There is apparently a lot of upgrade maintenance going on and for the price this is a nice place to stay. One downside during our stay was that the two glass elevators overlooking the atrium were busted. They were worked on every day, and finally one of them was fixed the night before we left. This made for extremely "long" waits for a ride on the other central elevator. We'll probably stay there next year, although we will check the prices on a couple of other nice looking places on hotel circle.
Not up to Crowne Plaza standards, avoid

I booked this reservatiuon with no knowledge about the hotel other than it carrried the Crowne Plaza brand name. In my travels I've come to expect Crowne Plazas to be business class hotel towers with large comfortable rooms accessed via elevators situated in a spacious marble and granite lobby. This Crowne Plaza is reminiscent of 1960's era Holiday Inn with rooms entered from an open courtyard surrounding the pool. Once in side the room was quite decent but I am concerned about the security of this open courtyard layout. The hotel description deceptively states that it is near the oldtown Gaslamp district. In fact, it is ten miles from there on bleak and difficult-to-access service road of the I-8 named "Hotel Circle" I always try to stay at Crowne Plaza or Intercontinental Hotels thinking that I will know what to expect. In this case I was deceived. Avoid unless you want a similar experience.

This was a wonderful choice of hotels. Friendly staff, beautiful room (requested golf course view, upper floor) excellent service in all areas (reservations, front desk, restaurant, shuttle service) delicious food in restaurant, free shuttles to several places. Only wish they shuttled to airport, cruise ship port. We would definitely choose and recommend this hotel again. 5 star!
