I've been there many times and have never had any of the issues you describe. I know they host parties on summer weekend nights, which I've yet to attend, but aside from that I've never seen it too crowded. I obviously don't tend to visit the pool when the weather isn't nice. But personally I love the views and ambiance, and the high altitude certainly helps with the weather and humidity when it's hot and sticky at ground level.
