Auberges à Los Angeles

Points positifs: La vue

Points négatifs: Le restaurant est un endroit à éviter, le service est médiocre, hôtesse est paresseuse

Points positifs: Hotel is right on the boardwalk with very nice restaurant (voucher for 1/2 price breakfast0 on 1st floor for people watching and of course the beach and ocean. We were upgraded to an ocean view room (no. 12) which was very nice with small living room, kitchenette, and wonderful queen bed. Parking was only about 150 feet to south (overnight $25). Kyle (manager) and Jose (who checked us in) were gracious and made sure we had what we needed. We even got a temporary parking by hotel after we checked out. Rented bicycles only 3 doors away; basically well situated to beach activities, dining, and not too far from Santa Monica pier.

Points négatifs: We liked everything, but would caution that there is no elevator. While there is a halfway house across the alley, we had no issues nor did we see anything untoward. The real spectacle is on boardwalk.

Points positifs: La propreté et la chambre

Points négatifs: Les gens fument du pot juste en dehors de la maison. Nous les avons regardé de notre fenêtre. C'est une bonne chose que nous n'avions plus à sortir.

Points négatifs: The Inn is run without any staff present and often not even available by phone. I arrived at 5pm and no one answered the door. There was a message that at 3pm a code was sent out that could be used to open the locked doors of a front and another code for the assigned room. I advertising this miserable place, there is NO indication of this unusual arrangement for Check-in time. Could it be that I was the first customer who had no connection to a Los Angeles wifi? as it turned out, my cell phone was not picking up anything cellular. At one point, someone came out who did not identify himself but he said that he could give me the passes if I gave him the codes. IHe literally pushed me out of the door when I could not get my computer going. SOne arriving guest lent me a cell phone but there was no more answer from an outside phone that there was from the phone on the wall. I am 72 years old and disabled. It was an unseasonably cold night. I was shivering wait outside. Finally, I borrowed an entering client's phone and called the police. this place must be closed down I am considering taking legal measures against the travel services that presented this property to me and will be writing blogs describing this brutal treatment of a property that had no one available in person or by phone to process customers. The police promised to make its own investigation. hl
