A restful and refreshing stay

Great stay. Room lost AC power, so I had to be relocated to a different room. A mild inconvenience, but management subtracted a couple of days' worth of fees from my total (without me asking) as I was checking out. So that was a nice gesture to offset my slight disappointment.

Angry with this property. I used valet parking for 1 day but got back home and found they had charged my Amex for 9 extra days without telling me. Be careful of the hidden charges- you also pay a $40 hotel amenities fee but no idea what you get for this !

It was a good stay- the staff was nice and I enjoyed being so close to the beach. With the reopening of the rooftop, it was difficult to access the elevator because there is only one and anyone could go up . I was on the 6th floor and often took the steps but as a paying guest at the hotel I would have preferred not to have to do that. Also the one time I tried to order room service, I was told they didn't have enough morning staff to cover it. So maybe set a time so guests can know that information.

Excellent stay at this place, nice clean boutique hotel next to Venice Beach we were on top floor room clean and comfortable with excellent view from the side of the ocean, breakfast was standard nothing to talk about, did use their bike which is not looking bikes but if you want to bike around the beach you should have your own bike, staff was pleasant helpful only negative thing I came across was they were renuating top floor so there lot of construction traffic in only passenger elevator which was annoying, hopefully all building construction be over when I visit next time

Its right next to the venice beach, there is good and bad to it. Neighborhood feels a little sketchy, esp at night. Also, loud music plays somewhere till like mid night, so if you are looking for a quiet place, this is not it. But otherwise, if you want to have quick beach access and night life, this is the place for you.

The hotel has a very popular and busy rooftop bar; however, there is only one elevator for hotel guest, and those visiting the rooftop so it can be very slow. I was disappointed we weren’t offered any VIP perks. The front desk staff, the maids and the breakfast staff were all wonderful.

We did not have a great stay at this hotel. Valet did not greet or speak to us when we pulled up. Got all our bags ourself and had to approach the valet stand for them to even look up at us. After that, we went to check in and the people at the check in desk stared at us waiting, then continued to speak amongst themself until helping us minutes later. The gentleman checking us in was extremely rude. We both felt like he at one point noticed our shocked and upset facial expressions/ our communication back to him and tried to act nicer after. But it was extremely unprofessional and straight up uncomfortable. The property itself is nice and close to everything but I definitely would not stay again and wish we stayed somewhere else. Extremely weird and unpleasant experience with the staff here. Not usually a picky or bothered person but this was not a good experience.
