Our Stay

Our stay at the hotel was lovely. The hotel is one block away from the beach and a less than 10 minute walk from the pier. The partial view rooms have a lovely view of the ocean. The pools are nice as well as the cabanas. The food is solid.

This is a very nice hotel. The facilities and dinning area was very well preserved. The only area that I noticed needed some work and cleaning was the elevator. I think one of the elevators was out of service as well. The pool area was nice but too small in my opinion.

Disappointed

The room was great, it was clean & comfortable. The shower was challenging, a table servers as the only counter top, it's placed tight against the shower on the side away from the shower head. To enter the shower you either enter on the side of the shower head or climb over the table. Doesn't everyone turn on the water then step in on the side away from the shower head? Good luck! There is no ice maker, if you bring a water container such as Yeti or hydro flask, your option will be room temperature only. They referred me to the restaurant to get ice. They did offer me a bottle of water several times and there were bottles of water in the room. None were chilled so no solution for cold water there. Zero on eco-friendly. Extremely limited option for snacks, drinks or anything you forgot, they had a couple luxury chocolates, once again they refer you to the restaurant. For any type of toiletries, they recommend a liquor store 2 blocks away. 3 elevators, 1 under construction, 1 not working. You have to go outside into the parking lot, around to the side of the building,through a maintenance door which is unmarked, find the one working elevator and then wait a long time. It was not busy at the time, just extremely slow. I visit Santa Monica somewhat frequently, this is my first stay on this property, I will not be back and I recommend anyone planning a stay in Santa Monica find other options.
Directions in parking lot to the side of the building to get to the elevator.
Maintenance door on side of building to access only working elevator
To enter the shower you either enter on the side of the shower head or step over this table. The glass door slides open somewhat further but you're still stepping over the table

Room for improvement but great staff

Elevators kept going in and out of service, no coffee in room or in lobby (have to buy from their shop - $6 for a black coffee?). Inexplicably had a DJ blasting music middle of day by the pool. On the plus side great location and staff all extremely nice.
