Good location, great restaurant right next door, decent parking and easy to get to Santa Monica and explore. The property itself is dated and we didn’t have the most friendly of check ins. We also didn’t get any of our benefits so was a little disappointing

In an city where hotel value died before the 2020 plague, Gateway offers for your $240 a nice roof deck, edible breakfast snacks with coffee, the sharp fragrance of weed throughout the halls, a comfortable room wirh windows that open to either let out or in the stench of pot depending on your preference. It's 15 minutes to the beach and within striking distance of west Hollywood restaurants. The shower pressure is good.
