Great hotel experience...we had our two golden retrievers with us and the hotel staff was very accommodating. Very friendly and courteous staff, great bar and outdoor seating. Was a phenomenal experience for wrapping up our so cal vacation before driving back to central Oregon. Highly recommend.

bad services

the hotel service was not good for Crowne Plaza (it is not a Days Inn or Super 8). we used the self parking which is a public parking garage. Since the garage payment system is not working, so the garage was charging the minimum $2/day for the parking. Since it is cheaper, we paid directly without using our room keys to pay for the parking. However, the hotel still charges us $10/day. The restaurant in the hotel is poor qulity and over priced.

Cant beat the location

Overall, this was a pretty good stay! The location is pretty spectacular. The beachfront walkway is a great area to stroll after visiting some of the restaurants in the area & close to nightlife. There's a little playground area nearest the pier for the kids. The hotel itself has a pool which we didn't get to use but the bon fire area was a nice little bonus. The parking -- public parking garage is fine if you have a small luggage you can carry but Id suggest families spring for the valet since the garage is a little inconvenient with the stairs. Its only $8 more per night, so might as well make it convenient. The room-- super spacious for the King and a pull out sofa. The sofa mattress could use replacement but the king bed was very comfortable. The bathroom fan did not work. Drapes were perfect for blocking out light. We had 2 mini fridges, a microwave and a wet bar which was also nice. The biggest issue we had here was that the music from the piano bar downstairs was so uncomfortably loud on Friday night -- like so loud that my young child couldn't sleep until they cut the music at 11pm. It was not as bad Saturday night but still loud. If you're sensitive to noise, bring ear plugs or stay somewhere else. I was actually surprised, with all of the complaints on here about the noise, that the hotel doesn't supply ear plugs. Anyway, I still think it was worth the stay despite that.
