Incredible place to stay. Great location and comfortable, clean rooms. The staff are all friendly and helpful. Room doesn’t block out noise the best so if others are up late you can sometimes hear them easily but we didn’t feel like it was a major issue that ruined our stay by any means
The room had lots of water damage and it smelled like musty almost like wet clothes left in a washer too long! We stayed for 5 days and every evening we came back our card didn’t work and we would be forced to go back to the check in desk
This was a terrible experience. Using Expedia I purposely chose a room with two beds and paid extra for it. When I got to the hotel they told me I did not reserve and pay for two beds and would only give us one bed. I have the proof in my reservation. We’re still fighting with Expedia for a refund on the extra money we paid and the people that run this hotel are absolutely horrible.

The room was smelling heavy cleaning chemicals. The bed was so noisy. It wasn’t even a real mattress. Breakfast is only cereals and coffee which is not enough.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel in Manhattan Beach! The location is perfect — just a short walk to the ocean, shops, and great restaurants. The room was clean, cozy, and had everything I needed. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made my stay even better. Such a calm and beautiful area — I’d definitely stay here again!
