Pros:

Las instalaciones son hermosas y el ambiente es muy tranquilo y familiar, las cabañas son muy modernas y acogedoras. La ubicación es perfecta, todo muy tranquilo y silencioso, el personal es muy amable y atento siempre.

Cons:

Cuando llegamos había basura de inquilinos anteriores como una botella de cerveza, una caja de pizza vacía dentro de uno de los cajones y fue algo decepcionante encontrar cabello en las almohadas y varias machas en las fundas de las almohadas y en las sábanas.

Pros:

Nice facilities and lots of space for families. Lots of things to do.

Cons:

The pillows were as hard as rocks. We could hear screaming children from the room next to us every day. Paper thin walls.

Relaxing birthday vacay
Pros:

This is our 3rd stay at the tahquitz, I love it.

Cons:

Our bed, the head area sinks down even with pillows it's not comfortable, so I asked for more pillows so we can watch comfortably. When we sleep we switch to the other end of the bed.

Pros:

The Peak restaurant was fantastic - good value too.
The little hotel gym was surprisingly well equipped.
The outdoor lounge areas with gas firepits.

We only intended to stay a single night as a resting place during a longer hiking trip, but ended up staying an extra night to enjoy the place.

Nice resort with lots of amenities
Pros:

Lots of amenities (pool, pickle ball court, restaurant on site). Short drive to the village. Great views.
Nice grounds to walk around.

Cons:

We stayed in the motel building. Our room was very dark and had a weird layout. Latge Towels were really small. Bed too soft. Noisily room (you can hear your neighbors, thin walls). Missing a mirror (only one small one above the sink).
The food at the restaurant was very average.
We had either great service or some worker gave us the attitude of being bothered.
