Pros:

Hôtel très sympathique à Venice, près de Santa Monica, la chambre était spacieuse et le personnel de l’hôtel très aimable.

Cons:

L’option parking pour $38 par jour semble un peu hors de prix compte tenu du fait qu'il y a énormément de places de parking gratuites (en extérieur soit) dans le quartier à proximité.

Pros:

The room was spacious and cozy. Staff was always friendly and helpful. Our room was cleaned every day. It is close to Abbot Kinney which is a very popular street but about 25-30 min walking to the beach.

Cons:

Our room was close to the pool so sometimes there was noise in the early morning or night. But overall it was not a big problem

Grote ruime kamer
Pros:

Ruime schone kamer. Wij waren een soort verbaast over de grote. Leek eerder een appartement. Werd elke dag netjes bijgebouden. Het bed lag erg lekker. Het personeel was vriendelijk. Hebben een prima verblijf gehad.

Cons:

Misschien het wat kleine zwembad

Stylish accomodation with some limitations
Pros:

The hotel is a cleanly designed adaptation of an older building . For the area, the price is decent. The rooms are large, and nicely appointed. The communal pool/ firepit hangout area could be fun , if a little outside space is what you are looking for with your stay. Be aware that the windows of many rooms are into communal walkways or spaces, so offer little privacy- curtains would need to be closed- no views and restricted light. There is street parking around back , but it is an urban area, and the paid, covered garage may feel safer.
For the money in the area, it is a good choice- if mainly you will be out of the room, or your room has an exterior window. The staff were very friendly , and the room was spotless.

Cons:

I did not like having to keep my curtains closed. There was also an LA county fee of $11/ day which I was not made aware off.

Pomimo powodzi w pokoju podczas opadów deszczu, personel zadział błyskawicznie i przeniósł nas na inne piętro ;)
