We booked a weekend getaway here for our 25th anniversary. We previously stayed in January 2025 and had a great experience, so we returned for two nights. Check-in was smooth, but we were surprised to find our total differed from our Expedia receipt. We were told parking would be $49/night, which hadn’t been disclosed on any communication received from Expedia. To their credit, the manager kindly reduced it to $22/night, which we appreciated—though it still felt odd given each bungalow has a designated spot. The bungalow itself was clean, spacious, and well-stocked with coffee and two complimentary waters. There was a noticeable lingering cleaning product smell for a while, but overall the room was comfortable. We also enjoyed the small private yard with chairs, and the location near the jacuzzi was a plus (even if our previous visit had a better view). One ongoing frustration is the lack of in-room entertainment. Although were were given a list of channels, the TV itself has no guide, so you’re left scrolling through channels, and there are no streaming options or ability to connect your own device. After a long day out, that made it harder to unwind. Overall, we had a good stay, but a few inconveniences may make us consider other options next time.

The hotel is absolutely beautiful and completely worth the stay if you’re into Art Nuevo and LA decorative arts. The neighborhood is spotty, but I can solidly recommend the LA Central Public Library for its centennial charm and character. The only downside was that the hotel swimming pool was not available for several hours, and with no insights on when it would reopen.

Left too early.

This resort has so much to offer all ages. Perfect for our family and all groups. Our 2 bedroom unit is very large and the best part is the lage balcony with the fabulous view :) We are already planning our next visit!
