Ramona Hotel Guide - Hotels with Spa in Ramona, California

"Upon arrival to the hotel we were welcomed by a rat in the main lobby. Staff didn’t seem this was a big deal and kinda ignored it. Coffee shop was out of certain milk and lids for our hot coffee cups. The Bautista was incredibly apologetic and handled the situation with a great customer service skill. Having breakfast at the restaurant, felt like the waiting staff was not that much attentive, maybe working short staffed or just tired, almost halfway through the meal we needed to ask for water , and few small things that were missing or needed attention that unfortunately were not recognized by the wait staff. Otherwise the stay was fair. Nice property with a fun pool. Calm . "

"Best place for families to stay! We stayed at the villas on the green in what was more like a spacious 1 bedroom apartment. Clean, huge comfy bed, giant jet tub, well stocked kitchen, large balcony, and TVs in the living room and bedroom. I wish they had more information via email or the website about the property and amenities before arrival. There are several pools, a water slide, fishing pond with free fishing equipment, golf and free golf club rentals, activities like s'mores around the fire pit and trivia, a rec room, and restaurants on site. Super clean, very friendly staff, parking included, and beautiful natural surroundings. It was about 40min in light traffic to Legoland and 30 to the Safari Zoo park. 15-20min drive to nearest grocery store. Cons: lack of information provided about the property and amenities and I found it near impossible to get a hold of the front desk/ concierge by phone and they take forever to respond to text requests. I had to call about a couple things before the trip and was on hold over 10 minutes 3 times I called and they didn't pick up any of the times we called from the room phone when they were there. They responded to the text messages through the number they provided about very simple things but not for more specific requests (we didn't have many). Though staff were super helpful and friendly when we did get a hold of them. I think they do timeshare presentations with incentives to attend but they weren't pushy at all about attending. "

"Hotel is easy to get to. Rooms are super clean. It can get a bit loud if people in adjacent rooms are showering or walking on hallways. However the rooms are nice and well maintained. "

"The staff doesn’t let you check in early, after a long drive I needed to rest but literally got there 3:45 and rudely they said check in is at 4:00 pm. So if you plan to get early there is not the choice and if you want to be treated bad for getting there early. "

"Check in was easy and the staff were friendly. The suite was clean and the property was nice. "

"Very disappointed with our stay at Handlery Hotel (4/9–4/12). It was nothing like advertised and far from the relaxing getaway we booked. Our room was placed directly by a housekeeping closet. Every morning around 6:30–7:00 AM staff gathered there talking loudly, using phones, and slamming doors, waking us up daily. The walls were also very thin, so we heard loud neighboring guests late at night and a nearby dog left alone howling for long periods. The room had multiple cleanliness issues: mold in the bathroom, bubbling wallpaper from moisture, dusty conditions, and a dirty balcony with cobwebs. We tried using the jacuzzi on day one, but it was extremely foamy and dirty, so we never used it again. We asked to be moved shortly after check-in because of the room location and were told no. Later, an extra pillow delivered to us smelled strongly of body odor and was unusable. We were also denied a hotel-offered amenity after staff asked if we booked through Expedia. Most frustrating, after Expedia contacted the hotel, they denied any refund claiming we never complained. That is false. I raised concerns Thursday within 15 minutes of check-in and again Saturday afternoon. Same front desk employee both times, rude each time, and apparently documented nothing. Dirty, noisy, poorly maintained, and poor customer service."

"We were very disappointed in the condition of the hotel during our stay. The entrance we were told to go through I believe at mahalo the keys didn’t work and the door did not work, it appears broken. We weren’t able to get in and we have a little baby. So it’s very stressful trying to get into your side of the hotel carrying bags and a baby and the door doesn’t work. We had to haul everything to a different entrance to come and find we could only get the key card to work on our room door after what most have been a hundred tries. It was very frustrating and really turned us off from ever staying here again. I hope there is something that can be done to make up for the inconvenience. "

"Amazing customer service and nice and quiet. Will definitely be staying here again."

"clean room. awesome view. "
