The property and the location in Santa Monica were both great. The only drawback for us was that the room was rather tight/cramped and there was music playing loudly in the outside courtyard at odd hours (like in the middle of the night or early morning).

The staff is excellent at this iconic, historic hotel. They always remember my name, even when I go weeks before visits. My only complaint about this place is the lack of coffee in the rooms or availability of it before 7:00 AM. My work requires me to leave the hotel before 7:00, so I have to find it later in the morning elsewhere. There aren’t any that open much earlier within a reasonable walk at 5:30 AM.
