I had a mostly pleasant stay at this hotel with its fantastic location just a stone's throw from the beach and various eateries. The rooms were quite clean and comfortable, but the service could use a little improvement in continuity. The dining experience was enjoyable with delicious breakfast options, but it took a while to be served. Overall, it's a good value for money, especially considering the proximity to attractions.

I had a decent stay at this hotel; the location is fantastic, right on the beach and close to Santa Monica Pier, which made exploring super easy. The rooms were okay but a bit noisy at night with music from the pool area. The staff was not very friendly, but some were efficient. Overall, while there were some hiccups, it was a family-friendly place with enough positives to consider another visit.

The hotel is located perfectly for exploring Santa Monica, just a short distance from the beach and pier, which I loved. My room was clean and quite spacious, but unfortunately, the noise from the pool and surrounding area made it less than ideal for relaxation. The staff was friendly and attentive, but the service at the bar and restaurant could be quite slow, especially during busy times. Overall, it was a good stay, but there are definitely areas for improvement, particularly regarding noise levels and service speed.

The hotel offers an impressive view and is conveniently located near the beach, making it a great spot for relaxation. The staff was friendly, and I appreciated the amenities available.

The hotel is conveniently located for beach access, making it a great spot for a getaway. While I enjoyed a very generous free upgrade, the rooms were quite small, leaving no space for luggage, and the sound insulation was lacking. The service was a mixed bag; some staff were excellent, while others were not very accommodating. Overall, it offers good value for the location but has room for improvement in some areas.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The ocean view from my room was fantastic, but the sound insulation was a letdown, as I could hear everything from the next room. The service was a bit aloof, and there were moments I felt overlooked. On the plus side, the location is excellent, just steps away from the beach and shopping areas, making it convenient for exploring. Overall, it's decent but not without its flaws.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is absolutely unbeatable, just steps from the beach and lots of shops and restaurants, which I loved. However, the rooms didn’t quite meet my expectations, and the service at the reception felt a bit aloof. The dining was decent but not worth the extra cost it added to my stay. Overall, it has great potential but needs a few improvements.
Rooms

The rooms were bright but could really use blackout blinds since the pool area was lit at night. They also faced the street, which wasn’t the view I expected based on the booking photos.

I thought the dining was good, but honestly, adding $124 for breakfast on top of a $433 stay felt excessive. The options were tasty, yet not necessarily worth that price.

The hotel had a great location, close to the beach and Santa Monica Pier, which I absolutely loved. The rooms were adequate, but I expected a bit more for a four-star hotel.
