Overall nice property it's an old hotel updated. No real amenities, the breakfast is basic and could be a lot better. The AC unit does make a lot of noise. Other than that nice area in Santa Monica, very quiet. Need a car then easy to get around.

Bed was very comfortable. My hips and low back tend to hurt with stiffer beds, but this bed was one of the best I’ve slept on at a hotel. Quiet room and I appreciate the doors are within a hallway and not exterior facing. Breakfast was a basic continental spread. Good value for price paid

I have been staying at this hotel for several years. This time the experience was very poor. It was very very noisy. The hotel is really too expensive for what you get now.
