Hmm, the rooms are like studio apartments without furniture, closet. Very Spartan. Bathroom shower was nice. The pool and jacuzzi balcony were fantastic and the staff did well. They fixed our shower and drain promptly, clean, our room was quiet. It is a cost friendly place in such an expensive part of the world. People complain too much. Not lux if you need that

Everything was great except they were not ready for our 4pm check-in because they let someone stay until 3pm for a late check-out, at least that's what they told us. The cleaning lady was still in the room until 4:30pm. She didn't have enough time to clean the wood floors, so the floors were dirty. My husband hates to complain, so I kept having to clean my feet. I'm not saying it was horribly-dirty, which is why I still gave them 5 stars. The front staff were always friendly and helpful. If you're a light sleeper, know that this place is on the very busy Pacific Coast Highway. Ask for a room in the back, but then again, there's a pool too.

Self check in and out is a great idea, but no staff on call, so we had no remote and no one to talk to. This is a refurbished Best Western..

The hotel staff are young, friendly, and vibrant; however, I wish the property were. It's a confusing place that resembles an old apartment complex. My bed was lumpy, and the room needed a touch-up paint job and more amenities, like a shower cap. Entering at night is strange. You enter through the garage, drive up to your floor, and enter a code to access your room. I needed to change my hotel dates, and although I am a Bonvoy member, the hotel did not want to change the dates, which were two months away, and instead wanted to keep my money. Two hours on the phone, to Boston, you can call the hotel directly, and a central argument, they agreed to change my reservation dates. Also, there is no mention of stairs. The second room I reserved had a flight of stairs to access the room. Luckily, a sweet staff member carried the bag for a friend who is disabled. However, the room was a two-bedroom suite and was intended for two people, so there were no room changes. The lobby staff are excellent, and had it not been for them, the experience would have been miserable.

We were really disappointed with this place. The only good part was the location. It was very bland for being remodeled in the last 2 years. Beach towels were hard to come by as the laundry service was not timely. No microwaves in the rooms. You have to use one in the lobby. We would not stay here again.

Unless your room specifically says ocean view, be prepared for a VERY dark room with tiny windows. The bed was also lumpy and unsupportive. Walls are pretty thin as well. Otherwise, it’s a fairly fine hotel.
