NEVER STAY HERE

This is not a hotel this is more like a run down skid row apartment complex with kids at the desk who cannot do anythiny. We had a room below a dance club that blared terrible music till 2 am. When I checked in they told me about the roof top bar but they assured me it was on the other side of the building (not true) then they said they could move us also not true. When I went up it was an empty dance floor with a terrible DJ and two bar tenders drinking with horrible music blaring to nobody. all a bit sad and tragic. I assume the economy will put them out if business but since the hotel does not tell you about the noice best to NEVER STAY HERE.

Loved the easiness for check in and out. Roomy and clean. No hotel extra riff raff. Price was great. Room w a view of Santa Monica beach and ocean. Roof top bar w great views. Pool area was nice for lounging w multiple places to sit- even around a fire pit. We will be back for sure.

Would stay again

Great stay, app made it easy and someone replied all the time. View was amazing of Santa Monica beach! Great location close to bars and restaurants and the beach. Made the stay perfect. Felt safe even though I was a female alone. Only thing that sucked was I couldn’t get a late checkout and there was no showers and my flight was late in the evening but other than that would stay again!

Hotel close to the Santa Monica Pier

We spent a couple of nights here as part of a longer trip in California. The rooms were fantastic! Very clean. Comfortable beds. The view was amazing!! Very walkable and convenient. The staff was so friendly. We were pleasantly surprised to find a pool and hot tub. Target was a short walk to purchase swimsuits. We would definitely stay here again.
