Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to be a mix of good and not-so-good aspects. The rooms had all the essentials and a few extra comforts on top, but unfortunately, they weren't as hygienic as expected based on the 5-star ratings. On the bright side, they were clean and well decorated, offering a great view over the marina. However, my stay was tainted by finding the room dirty and with someone else's liquor left behind.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms weren't the cleanest as expected from a 5-star rating, and the musty smell was a downside, but having a balcony overlooking the beach pathway was a nice touch. The service was helpful, although being charged an upgrade fee without a receipt wasn't ideal. The location was fantastic right by the marina and beach. The dining options lacked variety but were decent. Facilities were average.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and came with a big terrace that I enjoyed. The service was friendly, although I was charged an unexpected upgrade fee. The location was perfect, right on the beach and close to various attractions. The dining options were adequate but didn't meet my expectations. Overall, a good value for the money.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, right on the Marina beach, which offered a great view of people enjoying the beach activities. The rooms were comfortable and had all the essentials needed, with some extra comforts. The service was friendly, although there was an issue with crediting for overage. The location was perfect, with an amazing view of the marina and the beach just steps away. The dining experience was decent, with a continental-style breakfast. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor hiccups.
My beachfront room was sweltering when I arrived, but the stunning night view made up for it. The staff were lovely and super friendly, offering exceptional service. The location next to the marina was fabulous, with easy access to the beach. However, the lack of sleep due to the heat was a drawback, and having tea and coffee available would have been a nice touch.
I couldn't get enough of the stunning beach views from my room day and night. The hotel is definitely a cut above the rest with its clean and bright rooms facing the bay, where families and beach lovers were having a blast. The service was top-notch, although there was a small hiccup with the upgrade fee not being clearly shown. An ideal location for a relaxing beach getaway in the LA area.
