We stayed at Trailborne for a wedding. We found the everything was very nice. My only complaint would be, all rooms with stated Juliette balcony was only only an open patio door with a gate, you really do not have a balcony per say.

Loved the new updates. Had a cool 60s meets modern Acapulco. Staff was absolutely outstanding. Everyone was working hard to make sure everyone was taken care of. Great location of this historic place and just a great time. Might need to expand/enhance parking a bit but that's a good problem to have.

Overall the property is nice. I wasn’t impressed at all how the pool and hot tub etc was maintained! The hot tub always had a lot of sand in it. The water condition in both the pool and hot tub was bad the whole time I was there.
