No electricity and no service.

When I checked in, there was no electricity in my room. I asked for another room and the employee said indignantly that I would have to pay more. After about half an hour, he made some calls and was able to fix the electricity, but there was no apology. The room was very loud with traffic noise. Next time will go to the Wave hotel—same price but better rooms and service.

Manager wanted to argue about everything. He was more concerned with his feelings than actually doing what was right for the customer. He kept fulfilling promises he could not deliver. IT WAS AN ABSOLUTE WASTE OF MY TIME AND ONE OF THE LEAST ENJOYABLE EXPERIENCES EVER WITH A HOTEL!!! THE MANAGER TRIES TO MAKE THE REALLY SIMPLE REALLY DIFFICULT. . . I WILL NEVER BE BACK AND YOU SHOULD NEVER GO THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! YOUR TIME IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN TO HAVE TO LISTEN TO ONE WORD THIS GUY HAS TO SAY ;) HE WILL PROVIDE ZERO VALUE AND WASTE YOUR TIME!!!! ;(

My daughter and I stayed at the Seahorse Inn for the night after seeing a concert at the Kia Forum. The room was clean and had satisfactory amenities. The customer service was excellent. The location was good, close the concert venue and also many restaurant options in Manhattan Beach, and parking easy an accessible. Although the rooms are basic and not updated, I would definitely stay here again and appreciated the costumer service.
