Keeps getting better and better. Visited my daughter and her family again. Always enjoy staying at the Hills. The staff go out of there way to accommodate us, remembering our names and room type preferences. The remodeled restaurant is beautiful! Meetings going on everywhere and they still managed to make us feel special. Thanks specifically to the front desk staff... More

We held a business meeting and the entire staff was always available with consistent service. The best part of their remodel are the new fantastic beds and pillows...extremely confortable...if you want a good night's sleep the beds are great.

In town for an event we checked into the Hills. I'll say this--the Hills staff is pretty good. And the hotel itself isn't bad. Now that that's out of the way...here comes the bad. The lounge closes at 10p. The rooms were probably awesome maybe 25 years ago. There's still glimmers of awesomeness in the rooms, but it fades quickly.... More

I remember this incident and we checked the room right away. There was a leak on the ceiling by the shower head that was fixed right away and we didn't find any traces of mold. As a matter of fact, that person apologized to us and Thanking us for taking actions right away. We are saddened to hear you checked... More

My husband and I spent two nights over President's Day Weekend at The Hills. Our king-bed room was very spacious. Nice bed linens and we both slept very comfortably! Free bottles of water in our room were a nice touch! My husband is tall, so the high showerhead, great water pressure and deep tub were all a plus for us!... More

I can't even begin to describe the horrible experience that my husband and I had with this hotel when we stayed here on our wedding night. We got married on July 16, 2011, in San Juan Capistrano at a beautiful country club. Half of our guests stayed at the Dana Marina Inn in the Dana Point Harbor and the other... More

Unfortunately, we do not have a bellman available outside the hotel however, our frontdesk agents can definitely assist you anytime. It would be greatly appreciated if we were informed either calling us ahead of time or informed us at the desk because our front loading/unloading zone is not visible from the frontdesk. We did coach and remind our staff that... More

This hotel was built as a Hilton, became a Holiday Inn and is now an Ascend Hotel by Choice Hotels. I understand the hotel was sold a few years ago and the public areas have and are in the process of being remodeled. In the meantime, all services are available. The staff is exceptional. The desk staff, manager, and waiter... More

- I really enjoyed the outdoor spaces, especially for night time conversations. The seating arrangements were classy & comfy. - There was a wedding, and three or four sports teams staying that weekend... #1. It was really quiet, under control, looked organized, and I didn't hear anything. #2. When I talked to members of the various groups they all were... More

Hotel is a part of the Choice hotels Ascend collection so I expected better. They may have pumped a lot of money into the lobby and lounge but that doesn't do much for me when I'm looking for a quality hotel room for a night or two. One of the other reviews said the rooms were like a motel. That... More
