Not a bad hotel, staff were very helpful and friendly, although one morning the cleaning team were very nosy for over an hour. We wouldn’t stay there again, mainly due to the area, LA has really passed its sell by date.

Went with family. It was a wonderful experience from check in to check out. A very clean hotel. We had ocean view room and it was perfect. Located in front of the beach in the middle of the busy city. Noise is the only thing i would mentioned for anybody looking for a quiet stay, this is not it. The main street in front of the hotel is very loud. Theresa, and Eva were great amazing customer service.
