The stay was a trip we will never forget.
Pros:

My sister and I had a suite. The room was quiet and had plenty of space for us. The hotel is located on the beach, which is amazing. The outdoor patio was excellent for breakfast. We rented bikes from the hotel and rode the boardwalk to Venice Beach for some shopping and lunch. The staff went above my expectations.

Cons:

We were on the first floor overlooking a parking lot. Everything else was perfect and I will stay here next time I visit.

I absolutely loved my stay and next time I will stay there for at least one week.
Pros:

The location was perfect. I had a view of the ocean and the pool area. The food was 5 star quality. I would have liked a pina colada or a similar tropical drink but the bar staff at the pool didn't know how to make one.

Cons:

The bartender at the pool.

Wonderful Stay
Pros:

Perfect location, right on the beach. Studio king had pull out couch for our two kids. Big room and bathroom. 5 minute walk to the pier and 15 minute walk to 3rd St Promenade. Hotel staff were professional, kind, and went out of their way to make our stay special. Huge shout out to Hakeem at check in, and Sergio (hotel car driver). If you travel 3 miles or less, hotel offers free rides and if you’re lucky, Sergio will be your driver who will serenade you (upon request) with opera! Hotel restaurants are great and free drink tickets were appreciated. Can’t wait to return!

Delightful and unexpected!
Pros:

Excellent location and staff was truly delightful! We will definitely be back… such a GREAT location and convenient to all “hot spots” in LA!

Cons:

Lots of homeless/strung out people which is so sad because of all the money that is supporting getting everyone help. Many stores have moved out of the shopping district because of the theft…
