Nice clean hotel, service was good and the room and sleep were great. However upon checkout the hotel tried to charge me an additional 100 on "lounge" charges for a night I hadn't even checked in yet! Make sure you request a receipt before leaving! Otherwise good hotel!

Positives: Easy to find, nice and clean.

Negatives: They tried to overcharge me upon checkout!

A good views and mostly good service. $26/day parking (plus tip)and $13/day for wireless service in your room essentially adds $50/day to the price. The Internet service was slow and I would have liked help with my luggage. The hotel store had very few products and they put only 2 towels in the room. But the staff was very friendly and our room was nice. The beds were small.

Positives: Attractive with good views and good restaurant.

Negatives: $13/day for wireless which was quite slow, and $26/day valet parking are essentially hidden costs. They didn't offer any help with luggage.

I loved this hotel, especially for the price! Great location and the outdoor bar/nightclub looked like fun. The halls are in need of remodel since they don't match the lobby, but maybe that's in the works.

Positives: I loved the lobby - warm and modern. And the view from the room at night was nice.

Negatives: The bathtub had a thick ring of dirt around the drain, as if the mop bucket had been dumped there.

We only stayed here for two days and one night as it was close to LAX and offered an interesting area to explore.

<BR/>

Positives: The outside drinks and snack area was very attractive.

Negatives: The dining area was very poor and out of keeping with the general standard of the hotel.

We should have been told that our room on the 5th floor was above the outdoor bar which has music on Friday/Saturday nights. We couldn't get to sleep until after 2 am, so since we had traveled from the east coast, we were up over 24 hours before we could get to sleep. No mention of this from check-in.

Positives: Great lobby area and good location.

Negatives: Bar/lounge noise on Saturday night, very loud in room.

Comfortable, alluring ambiance in the lobby. Friendly, capable staff. Clean, comfortable rooms with ample support for business equipment. Convenient computer in the lobby dedicated to printing boarding passes.

Positives: The lilies and fruit enhanced water in lobby. Glow lounge. And the bed linens.

Negatives: No bathroom fan.

Nice hotel for business travelers. The lobby was very with an outdoor heated sitting area and nice bar. The only downside was the valet only parking, even though they have a giant parking garage, you have to valet. Not much around the hotel, but a short drive to 3rd St Promenade.

Positives: Modern hotel, with upscale lobby, bar and patio.

Negatives: Valet parking only.

It's the third time I'm staying there, I love it. I love borrowing their bikes and stroll the long beaches nearby. I love the breakfast by the pool. I love that internet is available 24hours. I love their outdoor lounge with cozy and beautiful sofas, fireplaces and intimates salons.

Positives: Comfortable, warm , nice design, all amenities, bikes available! Lovely rooms.

Negatives: Having to pay so much for parking!

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 22 Oct 2009 rated 9 out of 10.

I would probably not stay at this hotel again. We had no problems and it was nice, but nothing exciting that would draw us back to this particular hotel. The room was just an average hotel room. Valet parking was $26/night! Good deal, but nothing exceptional.

Positives: The lobby was beautiful.

Negatives: Parking was expensive. The rooms were just average.

Clearly a budget business hotel masquerading as something superior. Despite a great location the hotel did little in presence or staffing to live up to its 3.5 stars. I have had far more pleasant stays in cheaper hotels. As a mid business break meeting my wife it turned out to be disappointing.

Positives: Location was fantastic, everything else was not.

Negatives: Generally tired &amp; shabby look - close to dirty, poor service from bar wait staff.

One is immediately impressed when you walk into the hotel lobby. Elements of Feng Shui were well utilized. The hotel brunch offered a huge selection.

Positives: Beautiful hotel, chic design, and romantic courtyard.

Negatives: Awkward location of pool.

Overall, the experience was nice. I reserved two rooms. I paid for marina view, but one had an obstructed view. The facilities were nice, I think overall appearance of the amenities is above average. However, some touch up work (scuffs on doors and other small details) would help raise the appearance of the property from above average to excellent. Mandatory valet parking was a negative in an otherwise pleasurable experience.

Positives: Great location and nice view.

Negatives: Mandatory valet parking and common areas need repair.

The hotel was in a great location and the staff was very friendly. The hotel seemed to have been recently redone but the areas such as the elevator and hallways seemed to be neglected.

Positives: Great location with cheap public parking across the street.

Negatives: Hotel was refurbished but not all aspects and you noticed the old.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 09 Aug 2009 rated 10 out of 10.

This hotel was in a great location. Nice if you have a view of the Marina, not so great if you have a view of the parking structure and Washington ave. We enjoyed the larger bathroom, soft sheets and pillows large desk and dresser area was nice too. Should have more luggage racks.

Positives: Nice decor, nice staff ambiance, water and coffee was available in lobby for free.

Negatives: Pool was too small and charge too much for parking.

Great hotel in wonderful area of town. Excellent service, from check-in, bell captain, concierge and housekeeping. Room was well appointed, comfortable, very clean. I'd stay here again whenever I had a chance.

Positives: Well appointed, good service, convenient.

Negatives: Nothing - we loved it.

Wonderful hotel. Very comfortable beds. I would ask for a room away for the Club &quot;Glow&quot; because it is very loud until 2 AM. We were &quot;lucky&quot; enough to have an after club party in the room next to us. I finally called the front desk at 3:45 AM to break the party up.

Positives: Pretty downtown area, several homeless people around but they left us alone. The hotel beds were incredibly comfortable! The staff went out of their way to make our stay very nice.

Negatives: We were put in a room next to the Hotel Club. It was so loud that there was no way you could sleep throughout the night..
