Location is OK, and it’s clean, but I had a lot of issues with my stay. To begin, there were no towels in the room when I arrived, then the wifi was not working, for the majority of my stay (the portal to sign in for bonvoy wasn’t loading), and the phone reception in the room was insufficient for internet. On day two I awoke to a terrible smell from the bathroom where the sink was backing up, inexplicably. Finally, I was checked out of my hotel room early, inadvertently I assume, but that created unnecessary confusion and needed attention to be resolved. I was given Bonvoy points as a remedy, but honestly that doesn’t go very far and this property is hard to recommend. Pool and hot tub are nice and a rarity at this price point in Santa Monica, unfortunately not much else that is remarkable. This stay will be memorable for the wrong reasons unfortunately :/

I've stayed at this hotel several times, and every time I walk in, the hotel staff are fantastic. Bright, cheery, helpful, nice. And when you go to check out, and they remember your name, priceless. Great property, great location (I got my hour walk on the beach in).
