Oh my Goodness. We loved this hotel. It was retro remodeled. It was located in the perfect spot on Venice beach. The view from our top floor room was beautiful. We also visited the rooftop restaurant for lunch one day. We ran to the rooftop to see the sunset over the ocean one evening. The Erwin is the tallest hotel with the best sunset view on Venice Beach. The hotel offered bikes for use, tennis rackets, volleyballs, conhole, sunscreen, coolers, paddle tennis equipment and toys at no charge. We took the bikes for a ride to Santa Monica (my favorite place on earth). We rode round trip a little over 3- miles. The biking path and walking path are wonderful. The riding path is well-kept, safe and wide. The hotel is adorable. Our room was exactly how we imagined it. The free breakfast was beyound how we imagined it would be. The offerings were healthy, fresh made, and served with hospitality. We loved breakfast. Usually free breakfast means, danishes, friut and cheap coffee. No, we were offered premium coffee, delicious eggs, sausage, fresh-squeezed orange and grapefruit juice, freshly-made waffles, and fruit. This was a pleasant surprise. We normally go out for breakfast or pay for breakfast at the hotels we stay at. This free breakfast was hearty. The staff that served us was wonderfully friendly. The concierge was helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. He is the man in the know. He was so pleasant to speak with every morning and afternoon upon our return.

If you’re only looking for location, then it’s a 5/5. It’s in the heart of Venice Beach and 1 minute to the water. Outside of that, the actual hotel is pretty terrible. We paid for the Epic View. Definitely not epic. The photo of the room when booking indicated it’s ocean facing. Maybe 5% of our view was the ocean. The shower didn’t drain. We showered in a 1” puddle every morning. The towels had stains. We killed a spider. Paint is chipped on the wall. If you’re on the top floor, you can’t be a light sleeper. The restaurant upstairs kept me up all night. We did get one complementary bottle of water to share between the two of us that we could refill from the hallway.

My wife and I were duped by Expedia. The hotel as a whole was in poor condition. The carpet and couch in the room was very dirty and at end of life. 1 cleaning would not refurbish. All of the hallways had a nasty smell. I was deceived by the pictures on Expedia web. And the price. Over $700.00 us. Please don’t become a victim.

On the Expedia ad, it offered shuttle service from the airport which was ideal for us and the reason we opted to stay. Then found out they don’t. They were aware that it was on the websites as an option and the woman said they needed to change it but it hadn’t been addressed.
