Amazing

Amazing, incredible amenities and comfortable bed. The hotel has so much character and we really enjoyed ourselves! Could've liked to have complementary water in the room, and not $13 dollar per bottle, but that was the only downside!

Good location but hidden fees

My parents stayed here after losing their house in the Palisades fire because it was recommended by friends. The place is a bit dated and had a $500 hidden resort fee not mentioned until checkout. But the location and cookies were great.

Perfect!

This hotel is such a gem...perfect location, quiet but so close to the beach and restaurants, shopping. The decor is so gorgeous and the rooms are large, clean and comfortable. So many sweet little touches. We've stayed here three times and love it more each time we come! One of our favorite hotels!
