Perfect location, exceptional staff
Super friendly, super helpful staff. Checked in easily and quickly after being delayed by half a day. Used the valet parking, that was a breeze too. Our room (200) was much bigger than expected, like a small apartment and had everything we need. They location is second to none and made exploring Santa Monica easy! Thanks again to all the staff there.

4/10 Fair

This room amenities should be an $80 room!!! “
Nice bed and clean room but no heater, loud annoying fan when turn on light in bathroom, terrible view, $25 parking down the street, and charged extra $23 “resort fee” even though Hotels.com listed all costs included online.
Darren, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Highly recommend
The building was historic and beautiful. The staff was very polite, friendly, and receptive to anything we needed. Having 24hr valet service was convenient however we didn't use our car much since we were a block from the beach, 2 blocks from the santa monica pier, across the street from the mall, and righ next to the shopping district we had everything we needed for the weekend. We truly enjoyed our stay and i look forward to staying again.
Inside our family room. Sitting room with pull out couch
