Our stay was great! Staff was amazing and bike rentals were a plus! Our only problem was with the folks staying in the room above us - they were definitely enjoying their time in CA, although we knew when they got back from the bar at 1am...

This place !!!!!!!!!! Was amazing , I came across it while looking for a get away. The staff is excellent, the room was very clean, it’s in the heart of everything in hermosa beach and walking distance away from most food places. I got the penthouse suite , the view of watching the sunset on the roof top was breathe taking. This place felt like home to be honestly, it was calm, quiet and very relaxing and the staff was truly exceptional. Thank you again SW !!!

Our room called Ocean Pearl was pretty small and had no windows. Did not have a microwave. Strangely, the bathroom was huge. Also had no refrigerator but did have two wine coolers that we used for a refrigerator. The bed, although okay, was actually a Murphy bed. I saw other rooms and they were bigger and better. The roof garden on top of the building was great. Very big with barbecues. In our entire time there we never saw anyone at the front desk although the phone was answered quickly the two times we called. The location was magnificent and the price was good. I imagine the other rooms were probably more expensive but might be worth it as ours really was a little too small. Because of the great location and price we would return.

Love this little hotel! Great for the price and in a prime location super close to the water. There’s self check-in meaning it’s harder to get in touch with the front desk, but I had a great experience and would love to return
