“convenient”

Good basic service, clean and functioning room. GREAT staff - we forgot to take a valuable upon departure and it was in the lost and found. Staff was very helpful and shipped it to our home (we paid for shipping of course). Thank you again.

Area recommendations
Santa Monica boardwalk and beach, 3rd street promenade retail. All in convenient walking distance.

“Not impressed wished I paid more more the hotel next door”

Rooms were old and didnt feel clean. The minute I opened door to my room, it smelled like dirty socks. I wish we paid a little more for the hotel across the street. Next time we will...didn't complete the picture of a perfect family weekend getaway,

“Great location, not impressed with hotel”

Great location near the Santa Monica pier and 3rd Street Promenade, with the beach, good restaurants, movies, and shopping within easy walking distance. However, hotel elevators were very slow and one was out of service all day; in addition, no separate elevator for hotel staff and cleaning crew. Computer in lobby didn't work properly -- no instructions, no firewall; unable to print boarding passes. Homeless person was playing card games on the computer when I tried to use it, and hotel staff seemed unaware that he had come in off of the street. Curtain rod broke off in room, and carpet seemed damp. Significant charge for parking. Would stay here again, but only for the location.

Area recommendations
I would recommend this area (Santa Monica), due to the beach, amusement park at the pier, restaurants, movies, and shopping, all within easy walking distance. Also convenient to LAX.

“Over Priced”

Location was fiine, but way overpriced. Room was noisy because it was right next to a freeway. I have stayed in much nicer places for a lot less money. Did I mention that is was $28.00 to self park your car?

“Fairly decent hotel to stay at if your gonna hang out in Santa Monica”

Pretty decent hotel. Location of hotel was absolutely perfect. It's walking distance to shops, restaurants, pier, beach, etc. My family and I had a wonderful time and looking forward to coming back again. I wouldn't mind staying in this hotel again. The only thing about the hotel I disliked was the daily parking fees of 27 dollars and no complimentary breakfast. Overall, I am very pleased with our stay and now Santa Monica is one of my favorite cities to visit.

“VERY Loud! Fire Drill at 3AM. Dreadful experience...”

I wouldn't go back here if it was free. The hotle was lvery loud and the fire alarm in the middle of the night was just par for my stay. One of my worst experiences staying at a hotel in twenty years of business travel. On the bright side the location is very good and the area is wonderful. Please insulate your walls.

“You get what you pay for... nothing more”

Excellent loction and ok and clean rooms, however we had to wait till 4:30 p.m. to get a room, and then we had to accept a room towards the highway on the 3rd floor although we had paid up for a room with city view on one of the two top floors. The reasoning kept changing. Be prepared to pay 27 $/day extra for parking. The lifts have limited capacity and were breaking down quite frequently so we had to use the stairs. The pool is located next to the highway and thus too noisy to enjoy.

“Hotel is "just ok" but the location is great”

This hotel is very near the Santa Monica Pier and Venice Beach. The hotel was just average. The rooms and lobby were clean but have a "well used" appearance and could use some updating. During our stay the elevator was not functioning properly and I had to constantly use the stairs to get to the 7th floor. It took 3 requests & 2 days to have the empty water dispenser jug replaced in the fitness room. The rooms were fairly expensive, but I think that is because of the convenient location.

Area recommendations
Santa Monica Pier, Venice Beach, Santa Monica shopping. Very fun and beautiful sights and all within walking distance of the hotel.
