Need a speedier check in process

Room was not ready at 4pm. Had to wait around a bit before it was ready. When it was ready the line was about 30 min long to check in. Then you have to go talk to the salesmen about timeshare deals to get your parking pass. Overall the room was great and service at the restaurant was alright. Only problem was slow and annoying check in process.

This was our second time staying at the Highlands - first time was 20 years ago. Always wonderful ocean views. While they are maintaining the cliffside property the rooms are showing some wear. Paint and attention to detail inside the rooms would go a long way. Dinner at Pacific’s Edge was delightful. I absolutely LOVED having the fireplace in the room and the jetted tub also great after a long day of travel and walking. Sound proofing the ceilings is completely necessary if they ever remodel as we had terrible sleep and the noise from the room above was atrocious.
