When we pulled into the hotel a homeless man was going to the bathroom in the bushes right near our car. Our room and the patio of our room smelled like urine. There was lavender spray but it still smelled bad. That was disappointing. The staff and the food was good.

Such a cute hotel that really paid attention to the little details! We really enjoyed our short time there. The rooftop area is awesome and a great place to get a drink, good food and great view of the ocean and pier. The location is walkable to about everything core to Malibu (Nobu, the pier).
