Pros:

Sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt in guter Lage

Wir haben uns im Gateway Hotel Santa Monica sehr wohlgefühlt. Besonders hervorzuheben sind die hervorragenden Betten, in denen wir wunderbar geschlafen haben. Das Zimmer war sauber, das Badezimmer angenehm geräumig und die Lage des Hotels sehr gut. Positiv fanden wir auch die Fliegengitter an den Fenstern, sodass man problemlos frische Luft hereinlassen konnte.

Insgesamt ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt!
