Un établissement parfait à un emplacement idéal pour un séjour magnifique.
Pros:

Tout. Le personnel est adorable. On ne peut rêver mieux comme emplacement, juste à quelques pas du Pier. Les chambres sont très bien équipées et les lits confortables. Le parking (avec voiturier) est un peu cher mais malgré le check-out à 11.00, notre voiture y est restée jusqu’à 15:00 de quoi pouvoir profiter encore tranquillement de notre séjour sans devoir la bouger.

Cons:

Rien

Pros:

Location was key and this hotel is just across the pier, so perfect. Rooms were good. A bit pricey was maybe it was to be expected with the World Cup games taking place in LA.
