Bell Gardens Vacations from $319

This boutique-like inn was intimate and very welcoming! The property could offer more amenities by offering fresh pastries, hot coffee, and juices. In addition, a wine hour social would bring the guests together in an otherwise uninteresting environment. Please don't misinterpret me: the place was serene and beautiful considering we visited in mid-June, where the temperatures rose up to 113° every day. A refreshing evening wine social would have enhanced our experience.

My only complaints are: There was what appeared to be some sort of vomit or maybe food on the rug in our room. The rugs/carpet in general could use a cleaning or replacing. The pool could be open a bit longer. It closes at sunset. They also need a blender to make blended drinks! The staff is amazing. They are polite, professional, friendly, and eager to make your stay as comfortable as possible. From the concierge, valet, kitchen staff, and cleaning crew to the bartender and spa staff. They truly make your stay top notch. The rooms are beautiful and spacious. The resort is very close to the ocean, though the photos are a bit misleading since they make it look like you just go out the door onto the beach. It’s about a mile walk to get there. The massage therapist was amazing. They bring everything to your room and tailor the massage to your preferences. The deep tissue massage was exactly what I needed. I would definitely stay again!

Room service is below average. Cleanliness is a major problem with noticeable stains, smell and dirt from other guests all over the rooms. Hotel is nicer on the outside and lobby area than the condition of the rooms.

The overall property itself was decently clean.Its just the street that was a little dirty. Did have a problem with my room but they switched me quickly. Problems: Seemed like no matter what room I was in there was always an issue somewhere some small and some big. Maybe the lamp didn’t work, dirty or stained shower floor and stains in the carpet in one room and the other room had cheap paint job, weird smell, similar shower and no lamps besides a light by the bathroom. Both rooms had issues that I didn’t bother the hotel about(seemed like all the rooms were going to have problems). Not so bad: Decent price. Bed seemed to have clean sheets and overall it was a decent bed to sleep on. Has a pool. Close to everything in Hollywood. Front desk agents were accommodating. Overall a decent experience but as it is understood, you get what you pay for. In this case I paid for convenience but not “luxury”(or let’s say a certain level of excellence). If you come understanding what you are paying for and adjust your expectations, you’ll enjoy your stay here

Beds were good altough the bed covers were stained everything else was good.
