Pros: The property reminded me of the show Melrose Place. Several units surrounded a pool with vegetation. We stayed in a one bedroom unit that had a door separating the bedroom and bathroom area from the living area. In room 315 the bedroom window was next to the street, but the noise didn’t bother us. That says a lot because we live in the country and aren’t used to any traffic or pedestrian noise at night. The hotel provided the softest towels I’ve ever used. Both beds were comfortable. The couch easily pulled out to a queen size bed. Large TVs that worked great. Wi-Fi available. Full kitchen with sealed bags of ice in the freezer were provided. There is lots of shopping and restaurant options within walking distance. We visited CVS and Target several times. It is a couple blocks from the beach and within walking distance of the Santa Monica pier (wear comfortable shoes!) Don’t miss the 7th street shopping pavilion. Very cool vibe and lots of neat little stores next to a mall. The staff at the front desk was always helpful and friendly.
Cons: I didn’t see an elevator so we hauled our luggage up the stairs. The room had a slight odor, but once we bought a couple of Glade plug-ins, it was fine. It could’ve used some updating, but we’re not very picky people and it didn’t bother us. The pool wasn’t heated, but since we went in December we weren’t expecting it to use it. If you go in the summer and need air conditioning double check that that’s available. Fans provided.
