Overall I thought it was expensive for what you got.
Pros:

I liked the bicycle rental discount and location.. bed was comfy as well.

Cons:

The housekeeping was lacking.. the first day we didn't have a bath mat and the rest of the days we never got hand towels and wash cloths.

Love the location and the vibe, but disappointed in the breakfast
Pros:

Great location and well decorated.

Cons:

The restaurant is good, but the breakfast does not reflect any connection to the restaurant. It used to be good but now it’s like a cheap hotel continental breakfast.

Beautiful stay in Hermosa!
Pros:

Rooms were clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated and had all the amenities we needed. Loved the bar/restaurant area; so kind that they give guests discounts and free drinks upon arrival. Location is amazing right in the beach and close walking distance to restaurants on the pier.

Cons:

Was overpriced for this type of hotel.

Never again
Pros:

Directly at the beach close to center.

Cons:

The staff is unprofessional and doesn’t know how to talk to customers.
The cleaning was unacceptable. Trash not emptied, dirty sponges left next to our toothbrushes, horrible smell in the sink not fixed but covered up by blocking the sink with water (i couldn’t believe it) wasn’t fixed in 3 days staying there. No towels in the room at arrival. Room 9 is horrific and unacceptable at foot level of the restaurant guests and directly exposed to all the noise. Restaurant is central in the hotel making the view useless since opening the blinds exposes you to the restaurant guests which look directly into your room.. Noise all day from staff at restaurant plus music.. The hotel staff themself doesn’t keep the quiet hours making noise until 11:30pm cleaning the kitchen and yelling, whistling and slamming gates… At 06:00AM moving tables and cleaning outside making noise..
The building itself is old so if somebody lives above you will hear every single thing.. In our case a heavily overweight person wich on top was up almost all night making us wait for the ceiling to come down.. When i asked them to be quiet they were shocked telling me they just normally walked from A to B.
I would never stay in this hotel again. Management incapable of directing staff and addressing issues if the receptionist ever passed them on!!

Very enjoyable. We love the Hermosa beach area
Pros:

Love the location and facility itself. Having a louge area to watch sunsets, a restaurant and bar were nice and the included breakfast was an added bonus. room is amazing with all kinds of extras included

Cons:

Well vehicle parking is at a premium in the area so i understand the $46 fee. I don't know that we were aware of that but I was expecting something. Since we only stayed one night I'm not sure if that is a daily fee or one time fee. It is what it is.

Pros:

Location was perfect. The bar / restaurant area was fantastic with views of the ocean. Rooms were decent

Cons:

The breakfast was an absolute joke. Something you expect at a 1 star hotel. Yes it’s advertised as continental but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be fresh and decent. The croissants were dry, the bagels were stale, there were limited supplies, the packaged cereals were awful, there was no spread or hot water for the instant oats, the coffee was weak. To add to the misery on one of the days we missed breakfast because the staff had not refilled / or set up breakfast
