Lovely hotel with a fantastic location - Santa Monica Pier is right there. They have lots of amenities available included in the price (games, beach equipment, etc.) which is a nice bonus. The only downside is the lack of self-parking, but convenient public parking is available over the road for a maximum of $22 per day (resets at midnight).
