It was our 2. visit. The hotel seemed to us rather ageing to be. Shuttle service to Santa Monica Pier was good and the location to Venice Beach. And oh well! … read more

From here you can by car ( you need in La anyway) everything explore what you want. Furthermore is the main shopping street and the pier, about 15 minutes' walk from the hotel. The hotel itself makes a very good impression and the room was always clean. A bit small, but perfectly sufficient. … read more

We can recommend this hotel without any reservations. In La in any case everything is very spread out and without a car you were in a fix. For us is Santa Monica a good starting point been (all important in 30 minutes reachable per car) and ideal, if you afterwards directly to the airport. Breakfast is in the hotel not directly possible, but next door to an IHOP, in which you good (from 7 $plus drinks) can eat. … read more

It was OK, furnishing is however so rather moderate of the colors... Functional hotel, with underground parking and elevator. There was nothing really especially good or bad to say. It is a hotel! Location is only good if you for everything is prepared car to go. There is however two streets further, a good Billardladen, a few shops and restaurants. Internet was unbelievably slow. … read more
