I am not sure why there is a trend to not put soap in the bathroom area and the shower, the shower almost never has bar soap. You can shave your legs easily with the soap on the wall. Check-in was not the warmest. When, we asked the man how his day was going, he said,crappy. They’re happy hour is a joke. It is not at all like the pictures shown on the TVs in the rooms. Pretzels, chips and cute cheese is not exactly a happy hour. I was thinking.

Terrible is an understatement. The customer service is awful. We were booked into room 330. When we arrived the room smelled strongly of weed and there was a maintenance cart in the bedroom with wet open can of paint. I took a video as I’ve never ever had that happens. Then the maintenance guys just walks in. Doesn’t knock or anything. He offers to take the cart out. There was no way I was staying in that room. They gave us another room and blamed a glitch in the computer system. The “happy hour” had a very unpleasant bar tender who clearly hated his job and all the snacks were empty far before it ended so we didn’t get to enjoy that. The free drink was great though. They close everything early. Can’t use the football tables or anything. Breakfast was another thing I’ve never seen. They closed it early and all the workers went and got the food that was left. All of them were eating and several guests came down late and couldn’t get food or coffee. It appeared they closed early so they all could eat breakfast. I don’t think then eating is bad but closing early and turning all the juice off and breaking down the coffee stand was so unprofessional. The least they could have done is leave everything open while they raided the left overs. The worst part is they weren’t even apologetic. They didn’t seem to care if they even had customers. The place is pretty but the service is awful.

We had a wonderful stay, great place for kids of all ages. One of the elevators was out of service, so it was really congested and long wait times to get up and down from the 3rd floor. Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful, but very obviously understaffed and stressed out. The rooms were still being cleaned when we checked in at 10pm on a Friday. Overall, we had a great stay. Hopefully the second elevator is fixed soon and they can hire more employees.

It took us 3 rooms to find a bed frame and that wasn’t broken. We drove 5 hours and were ready to settle in and relax but when we checked In and sat on the bed it made this horrible noise that we wouldn’t be able to sleep through so instead of trusting what we said the maintenance was sent to check our complaint. Once realizing our complaint was valid they switched us to the room next door which was also broken. 😞 The maintenance then told us the room had been previously rented to teenagers who had too much fun***. Whatever the reason we were ready to settle down and get situated after a long drive. Anyways after we were placed into a room that was not broken it was overall a good stay maybe look into quality control?

Appreciated the complimentary snacks and two drinks for the adults in the evening and breakfast for all in the morning. Disappointed pool was inoperable. One of the reasons I booked this Embassy Suites in San Rafael was so my grandsons would have an indoor pool to swim in. Gabe at the front desk when checking in was very nice.
