I had a just OK experience here. I was not a guest...

I had a just OK experience here. I was not a guest at the hotel, but went looking to get a table overlooking the ocean, have a cocktail and relax while my husband and son went to Costco. We were visiting him from Seattleand our hotel was a few doors down. As I walked into the main entrance (didn't drive) i got attitude from the valet who stopped me to question about my intentions. When I explained what I wanted,, he told me to see the hostess at the outdoor tented area. Once there she didn't seem to want to seat me. I said I would wait and asked if I could sit on a nearby couch and be served. She said I would have to order food with my cocktail to stay. I've stayed and dined all over the world and have never received this kind of mandate at 3pm in the afternoon. Nevertheless, i complied. Watched people seated in front of me. Finally went up to her and was offered a table with a view as long as I was out by 5pm. I was later told by my waiter, I was served my first cocktail incorrectly on the rocks. Probably to have me drink up and leave. So...while the view and location is amazing, the service is with attitude and snobbery..and the food and drinks? Just ok and expensive just OK.
