When we checked in we were kept waiting for about half an hour past the "guaranteed" check-in time of 4pm, but they did offer us a complimentary glass of sangria and bottled water while we waited. The room was nice, if a little beat up. The cover of the wall heater was falling off and the toilet ran for about 15 minutes every time it was flushed. We had room 217 which is in the corner and had a partial view of the ocean. Turn down service left two Ghirardelli chocolate squares. Two chairs in the corner with a table between set with honor bar bottled water. Be careful when opening the window though because the windows open directly into the bottles. I sometimes wonder if hotel staff ever stay in the rooms they are selling us. It was all okay enough until we got a 7am wake up call that wasn't ordered. Ugh! Part of the point for us when we go away is to actually sleep in. On check out when I mentioned the wake up call I got a very scripted apology and the amenity fee was removed from my bill.
It's a great hotel. Typical of older architecture, so I'm not sure the "small room complaints" are truly valid.
The hotel is amazing. Great location (two blocks to the beach) and walking distance to the town. Internal design is great, love the charger next to night stand, very convenient. Staffs are great and very friendly.
Few blocks from the beach....rooms aren't great but the service and brunch will bring u back.
Over-all good experience but the room although clean was dated. Beautiful view from fourth floor upgrade but no elevator. Magnificent breakfast which was a definite #10!
To start we were 8 hours early to check in, we thought they would hold our bags for us instead they had our room ready to go. Oliver took our bags up for us to a wonderful room with a gorgeous view of the garden, pool and ocean. Listening to the waves break each morning is so relaxing. The champagne breakfast is great, the service is prompt and they are always there asking if everything is alright and offering something to make the stay even more pleasant. Oliver and Jessica were the best !! They will take care of you.... We will always stay at the La Playa from now on. I could go on and on !!!
