Very clean and spacious rooms. Nice large lobby downstairs with lots of comfortable seating. I am an early riser and my family likes to sleep in. I enjoyed the lobby in the mornings, grabbed a coffee at Waterman’s and sat there watching tv or reading. Nice pool and hot tub on the second floor. The location was excellent. The pier, beach, 3rd street promenade, Trader Joe’s, Target, restaurants, shopping, all within a few minutes walk. Easy pickup by Waymo and uber right outside the hotel. The little coffee shop downstairs had limited offerings but still it was a very convenient way to get a coffee and a quick bite especially since we were there over Christmas and most other places were closed. Would definitely stay here again.

Location is OK, and it’s clean, but I had a lot of issues with my stay. To begin, there were no towels in the room when I arrived, then the wifi was not working, for the majority of my stay (the portal to sign in for bonvoy wasn’t loading), and the phone reception in the room was insufficient for internet. On day two I awoke to a terrible smell from the bathroom where the sink was backing up, inexplicably. Finally, I was checked out of my hotel room early, inadvertently I assume, but that created unnecessary confusion and needed attention to be resolved. I was given Bonvoy points as a remedy, but honestly that doesn’t go very far and this property is hard to recommend. Pool and hot tub are nice and a rarity at this price point in Santa Monica, unfortunately not much else that is remarkable. This stay will be memorable for the wrong reasons unfortunately :/

I've stayed at this hotel several times, and every time I walk in, the hotel staff are fantastic. Bright, cheery, helpful, nice. And when you go to check out, and they remember your name, priceless. Great property, great location (I got my hour walk on the beach in).
