Самый ТОП у океана, но необходим ремонт и реновация
Pros:

Топ расположение прямо у входа на пирс. Стильный отель (в прошлом), но уже достаточно потрепанный. Наличие бассейна. Но в целом номера большие, все необходимое там есть. Можно взять пляжные кресла, полотенца, пойти к океану. Дружелюбный персонал. Заселили рано по приезду, дали час на поздний выезд. Но и цена за проживание не бюджетная. Санта Моника прекрасна!

Cons:

Отель достаточно потрепан. В номере запах сырости, по стенам что-то текло. Очень шумит кондиционер, спать не возможно. Когда выключаешь-душно. Окна не открываются. Нет завтрака. Был бранч по меню-по факту просто заказ блюд по ресторанным ценам. Пришлось идти в соседнее кафе.
