Great hotel. We were disappointed that we were not able to get into the room until after the posted check in time. However, they accommodated us when we requested a late check out.

This hotel is lovely and very clean, it is well located and you can walk to downtown Santa Monica and the pier, the pool was also nice and was pretty quiet when we went to swim- so plenty of lounges available.

Hotel was clean, super comfortable and very spacious! Really glad I chose to spend my money here and not some fancier hotel (with a much smaller room). Very comfortable place to "live" out of for a week. Felt like home.

We had a very pleasant stay overall. The staff were wonderful—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. The location is excellent, making it easy to get around, and the rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable. The only downside was the parking. It’s quite expensive, and since valet service is required, we felt obligated to tip each time the car was brought out, which quickly added up on top of the parking fee. That said, aside from the parking cost, everything else about our stay was great, and we truly enjoyed our time here.
