Im always looking for helpful reviews so here it comes.
1. Hotel is extremely clean, tidy, modern decor, and well kept
2. Pool is small but has a cute area around it to sit
3. Amenities are beautifully decorated, restaurant and coffee shop right in the lobby
4. Literally 5 min walk to the Santa Monica pier, lovely area with a nice beach and fun for kids and adults
5. Pretty central location to the rest of the areas in california
6. Parking is extremely expensive so beware ($60 a night)
7. We were working during our stay and we struggled to find a quiet area to take calls/work. Just an FYI for anyone expecting a lobby/business lounge
Overall; we are extremely happy and would stay here again. Special thank you to BJ, John, and Paola. They were always kind and courteous. Everyone on their staff was very lovely, I would name them all if I could !
