This property has attentive, friendly staff and is walking distance to the beach and pier. State Street is walking distance and there is a 7-11 across the street along with a neighborhood market. If you want total luxury, upgrade to a room that is like a small apartment with a full kitchen and livingroom.

We stayed at this beautiful property May 9th & 10th, 2025. We stayed in suite number four, which was an upgrade. Our suite was the size of a small apartment and contained a full size refrigerator along with all the other amenities that a kitchen would contain. The bed was super comfortable; we both slept very well! The location is perfect; took us about 10 minutes to walk to the beach. There are also bicycles provided which are complimentary. The breakfast was sufficient; cereals, quiche, breads, pastries, & fruit. . The staff was incredibly friendly and we would not hesitate to stay at this property again.

Comfortable quiet and large

Great stay, room was large with full kitchen. Bed was comfortable and bathroom had been recently updated. They offered a reception in the evenings with wine and finger foods. Walking distance to a few bars and restaurants. Not really walking distance to pier or shopping but we utilized uber all over town. There are two gas stations right next to it so you can walk to grab drinks or snacks. They had bikes to use but we didn’t end up using them. Enjoyed our stay.

Way too expensive for what is basically a motel

This was a quick one night getaway from LA. The property is basically a glorified motel. The door and window of the room open to an outdoor walkway on the second floor. The “first” floor is the parking area so if we open our blinds, we see people walking by our room and cars parked below. The room furnishings are basic. Our “VIP” amenity was a bottle of sparkling wine that couldn’t have cost more than $5-6. The description on hotels.com oversells the property. The location isn’t bad as it’s a few blocks to the beach. But $445 a night for what is basically a motel room is exorbitant.

We liked the room and the breakfast. We did not like the wait or service at check in. The African American guy at the counter wouldn't even look up from his writing or make eye contact. After about thirty seconds I asked if I could check in. He was annoyed. All he said was "I need your license and credit card". That is no welcome. Also, there was no elevator. Otherwise all was good.
