The staff was incredible really generous with their time and helpful. I loved the bathroom in my room, gorgeous lots of room to move around my room was clean. I can’t say enough about the staff, though they really went above and beyond.
Everything was perfect. Some notable highlights: Very attentive and friendly staff who go above and beyond, modern and clean rooms and amenities, gym in very good shape, excellent location close to the Pier and right by a metro station. Breakfast was not included but there is a cafe by the lobby and the prices were reasonable.
Staff was very friendly and hospitable. Convenient location with lots to do in the perimeter of the hotel within walking distance. Room was very clean & king bed was comfy.
The hotel itself was fantastic, pool and jacuzzi are great and there are chairs to sit and watch the sunset over Santa Monica. Staff were very friendly and helpful!
There are however, a LOT of homeless people taking and under the influence of drugs directly outside and around the hotel, which feels very uncomfortable and unsafe to be around.
I liked the location of the property. The valet parking was amazing and Duncan was very friendly & helpful. The front desk staff was very nice & attentive to our needs. The lobby was very clean and I enjoyed the choices for food. The room was very spacious and clean. Liked the vicinity to Target and Trader Joe’s and the freeway. Overall, great stay and I would return.
Overall, staff was very helpful and pleasant. Front desk staff was great - especially Jordan. Room was clean upon check in. Cleaning staff was very pleasant but we asked for clean towels and they never came. A nice hotel overall. Facilities were great.
The hotel is nice. It’s not too far from the beach or Santa Monica pier- probably about 10-15 walk. There is lots of shopping right by. There is a Target right next door & a Trader Joe’s across the street.
The room was good but the air conditioning was noisy and the shower needed to run more than 7-8 min before it reached the right warmth. The cleaning staff was excellent but the walls must be thin because could hear the neighbors and the planes.
