Staff was very friendly. The beach chairs and other equipment was nice to have. Very close to the pier/beach. The only thing wrong with the room, was no where to hang towels and the cabinet where they keep the fridge and bar/coffee was not very functional. Looked nice but something lower with some drawers would be more useful and then the tv could be centred between the beds. ( this last bit is me just being picky.) Overall great place to stay. Will definitely stay again and recommend it.

Pier side charged me unreasonably $40 for “amenities fee” without my knowledge. This is not right and I email them twice but no reply. I have to dispute this charge and if that’s their way to provide service, I advise everyone don’t go there….

Really nice hotel in a perfect location near to the Santa Monica pier. There were only two things we found we didn’t like about this property. 1. The hotels restaurant/lounge/breakfast room had really slow service and the food we had there was not good… at all. 2. all the extras they tacked on to the price: mandatory valet parking at $65 per day, resort fees, and a couple other fees we’ve never seen before.
