It's not like the photos, it's not accessible for those with a stroller or for taking things to the room! The apartments in the photos look like they're beachfront, but they're not. Really disappointed.

Disliked: Room comfort

Mediocre, nothing special.

The room was fine. Nothing special. I woke up with 4 bug bites which I hope were from mosquitos and not bed bugs but I didn’t have time to look around. Very noisy at night - could hear what sounded like a loud maintenance cart, people talking all hours of the night. For $250 I would find somewhere else next time for this less than average hotel.

I stay at this property when I am in Santa Monica because it’s walking distance to the restaurants and to the beach and the rooms are clean and conveniently located in the staff is pretty nice but for the amount of time I come there the staff should recognize me and maybe offer me an upgrade sometimes, but all in all the property itself is very good so thank you
