Worst Experience Ever - Do Not Stay H... – Posted Sep 03, 2009

Horrible
male with a moderate budget, traveling for leisure

Worst experience I have had at any hotel - I have stayed at hotels for 80.00 a night that beat this place . Total bait and switch on the price and the rooms were horrible. The continental breakfast is a joke consisting of packaged mini muffins that cost 50 cents or less at a vending machine . Manager scammed a price to get us there and then changed it at the desk . I dont appreciate having to log online and show a lowere priced advertised at 50.00 less (per night) and then get a song and dance at the front desk . Paid 20.00 per night to park and couldnt even get a space as they sell parking to everybody else in the city and oversell spaces - I had to drive around for an hour and come back 5 times to get a space . HORRIBLE - HORRIBLE - HORRIBLE

male with a luxury budget, traveling for leisure

Hotel was the worst experience. No parking as they oversell the spots to anybody in the city and the hotel guests get stuck driving around for at least an hour to come back and get a space(20.00 parking per night) . Advertised continental breakfast and got Min Muffins that cost 50 cents . Dirty rooms and if you look at the names below that have posted for this hotel - its FARZAM - which is the manager of the hotel . What a joke

Okay

The location is fantastic! We were able to walk to the wedding we attended at the Shutters Hotel, peruse the pier and be close to shopping and food.

The hotel was pleasantly quiet as well. We never heard anyone knocking around or street noises

Hotel is located in the heart of Santa Monica! Only 1 block from the beach, Santa Monica Pier, Mall, and Third Street Promenade. All rooms are non smoking, include free high-speed internet access, and complimentary continental breakfast.

Santa Monica pier is just across Ocean – Posted Jan 19, 2009
   
         
Good

Santa Monica pier is just across Ocean Ave and the Prominade Shopping is close behind the hotel. Not far from LAX too. Great place for a weekend get away. Don't expect too much from the breakfast included as bagles, juice, cereal, and coffee is...

Horrible

This hotel was terrible!! Not only were the hallways disgustingly dirty, but we had to tolerate an awful sewer-gas smell all night coming through the vents in our room, as well as in the hallway! Additionally, we only had one light in our room...

Okay

Rooms were old and run down and so were the hallways. You had to pay to use the internet in the lobby. Don't be fooled by the pictures. To go to the beach you had to cross a 4 lane street, walk a bit, then walk down many steps, cross an overpass...
