Condominium Resorts in California

"Very grumpy staff on arrival, didn’t explain that we needed to take the card they gave us to breakfast so had to go back to the room for it which then caused a grumpy waiter! Card was given as a temporary hold for any charges but then a charge was taken for late checkout without our permission which we’d planned to pay in cash to avoid charges!"

"Property is not maintained and is pretty run down. They charge you to park your car even if u have a room. Then charge a outrageous deposit . There is no free breakfast or wifi. None of the vending machines worked. No maid service unless your there over 3 days. We had two rooms right next to each other. One was cleaner then the other. And our toilet was broken. There is a mini fridge but no microwave. The only good part was the shuttle to and from disneyland, those guys are extremely nice and did a great job accommodating guests. Its right next to freeway so very loud when u open the window"

"The location is just a short stroll from the iconic clam chowder at Old Fisherman’s Grotto & surrounded by many great dining options. The cinnamon toast at Jack’s Monterey was delish. There’s also a Carmel bakery downstairs, which was a convenient treat to have just steps away. The hotel lobby itself set the tone right away. It felt laid-back yet inviting, exactly the kind of atmosphere we look for when we’re on vacation. We were also able to check in early, which made our arrival smooth. Such a great bonus! They even provided scavenger hunt activities for our kids, which was such a thoughtful touch. This is truly a family-friendly hotel that makes traveling with kids feel easy & enjoyable. I’m very particular about bathrooms, beds, & overall cleanliness, especially since I have an immunocompromised child, so this is something I don’t take lightly. Portola did not disappoint. Both the bathroom & bedroom were spotless & even better than expected in person. The bed & pillows were incredibly comfortable. The A/C worked great, & having a ceiling fan was a nice bonus touch. The photos online truly don’t do this place justice. It’s even more beautiful in person. The heated pool was a hit, & the towels felt clean and luxurious. The staff were nice! There was a tiny red spider spotted on my child’s bed, but thankfully my eldest caught it right away. Aside from that small moment, everything about our stay was superb and exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended!"

"The stay was comfortable, room cleanliness and friendly staff. Downside: coffeemaker didn’t work, spilled my coffee. "

"Great overall experience we are definitely coming back"

" The hotel’s location was great, the staff was friendly, and the breakfast was okay. The room appeared to be clean and smelled fresh at first. However, when I opened the mini fridge, I was disgusted to find a ball of hair sitting inside. I wouldn’t have been as bothered if the hair had been on the bathroom floor or carpet, but inside the mini fridge was just gross! It really turned me off and made me question the cleanliness overall."

"The big concern I have is that the ART transit bus system will no longer be in service and this hotel does not offer a Disneyland shuttle. The first two days we walked to Disneyland and back and it was awful in the heat. We felt drained before we even got there. We love this hotel but will be staying at a different location next time we go to Disneyland that is closer to the park."

"The breakfast stuff at entry were very rude and disrespectful. Maria yelled at me and my wife and even when we asked for the manager she continued to be rude . Parking expenses and the system was not working. Rooms were average condition. The hot water to take shower was not easy to use. I had a very bad experience and would not recommend this place at all."

"Nice location but staff was not helpful "
