We booked this hotel last minute when we extended our stay in the LA area I was able to get a discount code directly on their site and the cost was very reasonable for the location and facilities We didn’t get to check out all the amenities but those we saw/experienced were great

We had come from a nearby 5 star resort and to be honest, our room and in room amenities were nicer at Shade Though we didn’t use it, we appreciated the availability of the stocked mini bar Lighting in the room was fun, the bathroom was clean and modern, and the bath was fantastic On top of the usual bathroom stuff (shampoo, conditioner, lotion, etc) they had a toorhbrush/paste kit and fantastic smelling bath salts They also greeted us with cookies, can’t go wrong with that, ha ha! We were also able to check in quite early which was great since we had to check out of our other hotel at 11 The *only* not ideal part was the walk to the beach but we knew about that when booking so I definitely don’t hold that against them It wasn’t super far but would be a bit of work if you were wanting to take enough stuff for a day out on the beachWe didn’t get the chance to check out the rooftop pool We noticed at both hotels we visited they closed the pools at sunset which was new to us and inconvenient during early sundown months but wouldn’t deter me from staying again Just a head’s up for future visitors

I am in love with the Shade Hotel!! We had such a fantastic 2 night stay as well as our wedding at the hotel and it was all a dream Every room is superbly comfortable, location is great, staff is amazing and whole overall vibe is wonderful! I can’t say enough wonderful things about Shade Hotel Redondo and thank the hotel for an amazing stay

Wow! The suites in this hotel impressed me! What a bathtub is on the balcony overlooking the marina!!!!I liked everything! The neighborhood is great, safe and clean! So many seafood dining options around!I will come back!!!! It’s gorgeous!Would also be perfect not to have neighbors with a barking dog 24/7 I don’t know why such a nice places allow loud animals to the hotel… this part is disappointing

I didn’t lodge here My late parents’ friend visiting from Alabama stayed at the hotel She loved it

We had a late dinner in the dining room! It was great and the service was top-notch! I love the DoubleTree hotels We used them for Continuing Medical Education courses that were offered by my previous employer They live up to the highest of standards If you desire the best accommodations and excellent service you’ve come to the right place Also, they have a very nice sports barlots of great seating and plenty of televisions for every sport you could possibly desire! They have so many excellent accommodations for receptions and other special gatherings Be sure to include them as a possible venue when planning an event

My stay was awesome besides I wasn’t offered any of the complimentary items during the checking in process A mention of a breakfast ticket would of save me the embarrassment of going back to my room to get my wallet During my 5 day stay I had to request towels twice on my fourth day

To any future guest it’s only a reminder to acquire these amenities as well as dry cleaning if necessary My stay was very quiet for as busy as this hotel gets, to explain why I gave it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I stayed at the Doubletree in Carson, CA from 5/20-5/22 and it was a good experience The front desk hostess was very professional and courteous

My room was clean and comfortable-no signs of any critters I had the $20 breakfast buffet and the staff was incredible and the food was good! My only qualm was that my waffles were cold The coffee was good I liked the location, very close to the South Bay Pavilion Mall and other establishments My reasons for giving this hotel 4/5 stars is that it is a bit dated and that I didn’t appreciate the two young ladies behaving badly and immaturely while I was at the front desk checking in This gives the hotel a bad look for the staff I assume these two young ladies were housekeepers

The Jewel Riders Archive

There’s many different aspects to this review And I think that the over arching four stars is for the general experience Some of the service was amazing, some of the service was a little lackluster

The resort as a whole was a little underwhelming The activities offered hotel gas such as horseback riding or kayaking could have been more adventurous; and an actual beach access would’ve been nice The rooms were beautiful The food was decent A little over priced… But I would say if you enjoy sitting in your room and eating at restaurants and listening to live music this is the place to go But if you’re looking for an all inclusive type of a resort this is probably not the place to go

Erin Preul

Terranea has been on my list of places I wanted to stay for a long time I can’t say I was totally disappointed, but I was also not blown away For the price, I was pretty shocked at the poor level of service

When we arrived, our room wasn’t ready – at 5:15PM! We had been told we could check in at 4 at the latest, so we were very frustrated to wait with our bags in the lobby after a long day of travel Not to mention, at the hourly cost of this hotel for an ocean view room, that was almost $100 of time we shouldn’t have had to pay forLuckily, the location was spectacular and the ocean view made up for a lot But we were also surprised that after a day by the pool, our room had not been cleaned We didn’t expect a full service even, just simply new towels and a made-up bed This kind of service is what we expect these days from a lower level hotel, but the price they ask you to pay makes the small details matter much moreI would recommend saving your money and booking a vacation where you will get great service I can only hope Terranea goes back to the quality I heard so much about before COVID – as it stands, I would not return

I didn’t stay at the hotel here, but I and my date spent some time at the lobby bar and the garden The lobby bar is a beautiful place, amazing vibe, with live music on the day we were there (a Sunday evening) It really was nice

We almost didn’t want to leave 😀 The food was good (we had the calamari something) and it was a lot I was surprised at the amount of food The drinks were pretty good tooParking was also not bad Just $12 for valet parkingThat was for the lobby bar The garden walk was amazing So so beautiful and the area that overlooks the ocean is breathtaking I highly recommend this place 💯Next goal is to stay for a day or two in the beautiful hotel, and try the other restaurants at the location

The beds are the absolute worse! The bed is extremely hard, you can feel every spring digging into your back, makes the loudest noise with every move! It was hard to stay asleep when you u consciously shift in your sleep If you have back problems this will definitely make you sufferI advised the staff serval times and even 1 week ahead of time

I would require a 1st floor room with immediate access to outside since I have trouble with stairs due to an injury When it was time to check in they said I had to go a second floor room, that had no immediate access to outside for fresh air When I went to complain because it’s difficult and painful to go up and down stairs, they brushed me off with the absolute worst customer service No sorrys just shrugs and oh wells Even got some attitude when I complain that I kept checking in to make sure they know I needed an outside room being on the first floor, can you believe that?!They have a tiny little trash can for their kitchen which is ridiculous since you can fit anything in it especially when you have an entire kitchen The cooking ware looks very run downAlso I find it very awkward and weird how the vents are so conveniently facing the bed, which I advised y’all checking before doing anythingAlso the room we were in had this huge window that faces the living room and part of the bedroom And the ONLY curtain u can close was a SHEER SEE THRU curtain!!!!!! Talk about not being able to walk comfortably thru the room without the possibility of someone looking inside! It was beyond stupid and lack of privacy!I found it very inconvenient and weird how the card you use to open your room can be deactivated if accidentally brushed against your phoneI’m also shocked there was no jacuzzi, very disappointedAlso found yellow stains on our white bed It looked fresh and it made me feel disgustedTheir breakfast was not appetizing, if you take the risk of staying here , you will see what I mean when you go down to breakfastOverall I don’t recommend coming here Sticking with the resident inn by Marriott As someone who is well traveled, this is not the place

Me and my friend stayed here for 3 nights The room was clean and spacious I did not really talk to the staff much because I did contactless check-in and check-out

The only staff member I really spoke to was housekeeping because we needed fresh towels and rags She did not seem too friendly with helping me out with that as she kind of had an attitude about it but I don’t like reusing my used towels and rags This hotel was the closest place to LAX where we could have free parking (10 miles from the airport) which was not too bad at all I would recommend staying here Even though we did not get to go they did have dining there as well as a swimming pool Beautiful hotel

Tiffany Vinson-Warford

This place is kept up for what it is however I wouldn’t suggest spending more than $100 a night There was no pen and paper, no microwave, no furniture on the balcony that are attached to the room, pillows are rather small, and my bathroom smelled like a sewer The location was great, a lot of things in walking distance

Would I stay here again? Yesas long as I’m paying 3 star prices

Jean Pierre

Location is OK and staff is nice and professional which is why I give a 2 star rating to this hotelI checked in late and did not check the room location: I was on 2nd floorWhen I woke up in the middle of the night with a really loud noise, I discovered room was in front of the huge AC unit of the building

I could not sleep again as it was so awfully noisy See photo to see my “view” from the roomI can understand that there is this type of issues, but room like this should be heavily discountedBe warry of this if you decide to book there

Anne-Line Christensen

We arrived very early, extremely tired after a night flight The staff was wonderful and told us to get some breakfast at their place and took care off all of our luggage After that we went to the beach with beach chair and bath towels from the hotel

They gave us an early access to the room and the luggage was already taken care ofThe room was a little bit smaller than it looks like on the pictures but the view was fantastic Big bathroom The bed was amazing but the sofa bed was terrible to sleep on for our teenagers The madras was thin and there was always some noise when mowing around during the nightAs this was pretty expensive nights compared to other hotel this period, we was surprised that they didn’t make the sofa bed before night time We took some pillows from our bed to the sofa bedThe most sad part is that the bathroom was not clean when we checked in On the floor under the sink there was a lot of red something and was easy to spotI told the reception and they said they would take care of it Later that evening they gave us extra new towels, but the floor was still the same… I told they about this the next morning and had the same answer as they day before The day went by and no one had cleaned the bathroom The next day I had to go look for the cleaner’s my self All the staff on the hotel was super nice and friendly A big plus

raymund cordero

Our stay has been wonderful for the past few yearsThe hotel is in a great location and the staff has always been wonderfulMy family has been to this location for at least 3 years now

Every year, as we leave the premises we have scheduled our vacation for the next year It’s always the same time to celebrate a birthday This year we even spent 2 more days than our usual To my dismay, tonight’s evening manager tells me to my face that there is really nothing special about my family coming every year It is “supply and demand” and we are not any different from any other customer!! Really???I was trying to buy book our next year’s celebration as she was telling me thisI told her that I was extremely appalled!Is this what her company really expects of her??If that is the case, there shouldn’t be any customer loyalty to the very people that we believed had our interests always in their priority? My family is extremely disappointed 🙁

Jose Alonso

My Family and I (party of 9) booked 2 adjacent rooms together for the 4th of July weekend and we had an amazing experience! The staff was wonderful, great to talk to, easy to request items, and the hotel and rooms were clean The room was larger than standard, with a king bed and a foldout couch plus a kitchenette with a cooktop and refrigerator and microwave Plenty of space for storing all the luggage plus beach items

The Hotel provided beach towels, boogie boards, beach chairs, coolers, and kids sand toys, all complimentary! This is our new home away from home, definitely recommended to all!

Us girls had our annual girls trip here this year, almost 2 weeks ago Yes during the pandemic but everyone at the hotel was very safe, wore masks etc We were required to wear them too walking anywhere (when you were coming into contact w/ppl) or walking into or out of restaurants

The little shops & coffee shop/bakery had the line at 6ft apart & limited amount of ppl in the little shop The 1 lady working in the shop was a bit rude but anyways, I cam here to review our room, pool & the property We had the larger room,w/a kitchen & a connecting normal room The balcony on the larger room was BEAUTIFUL! It had 2 lounge couches, a round glass table w/an umbrella & a fire place! The property is absolutely beautiful & relaxing We had a cabana at the adult pool for 2 days,which was great The pool never got packed & it over looked the oceanside can’t say enough good things about this place besides that you should go! I can’t wait to go back here w/just my hubby & another trip w/hubby & our daughter!! There’s also alot of amenities like a golf course, spa, excursions, kayaking & guided hiking but most were closed or very limited due to damn Covid lol Oh well, next time!

james Pe

This place is amazing Very spacious, has its own washer and dryer, full refrigerator, Microwave, two-burner stove, auto-light fireplace with timer, two toilets (one with its own sink), full bath, full shower, Krupps coffee maker, dish washer, the list goes on This bottom floor unit has an outside porch fire pit

The sofa is a king (I think) hideaway bed There are two large wide screen TVs I wish there was a DVD player, but hey, they have almost everything else The housekeeping is doing a great job with cleaning and restocking everything Room service has been great, and doesn’t take longer than quotedHighly recommend staying in a bungalow if you can spend the $$

This hotel was AMAZING!!! The views of the ocean, the patio, the room decor, the cleanliness, the staff were so kind and accommodating and the location is my personal favorite so location deserves 100 starsReasons I gave it a 4 The biggest being that my neighbors made nonstop noise from about 9p to 4a that sounded like someone dropping a bowling ball every few minutes

In between the horrendous thunderous noise was chalkboard screeching noise I lost sleep completely Also the parking is terribly tiny, the room is a bit small and there was construction right at the propertyThat said, I’ll be booking my return to this location soon This is still my favorite because the vibe was so free and bright Hopefully neighbors and construction won’t be an issue I’ll be happy to park in the tiny spaces and will deal with a smaller than expected room size because everything else about it was above my expectations I’ll see you all soon!!!!

Hannah Emfon

I really hate to give this review as I’m not a complainer at all but the staff give me no alternative Communication with the hotel was awful I asked before arrival via email what the hotel could offer outside of the standard packages for my wife’s birthday after chasing on numerous occasions with no reply I finally got a standard response of the packages offered on the website to which I declined (they weren’t to her liking) upon arrival I was told there were items in the room to celebrate (these weren’t agreed) when advised I hadn’t agreed to anything they said leave them to one side and we will refund you

We did this and I have since requested the refund 3 times via email (I can’t call as we are in the UK) and have received no response Service and communication is poor which is unfortunate for such a beautiful hotel Management clearly do not care about their standard of service!

Elisa A

Last week was my 2nd stay at the Sea Sprite & it was amazing!! A young guy with glasses brought our luggage all the way to the 3rd floor when he didn’t have to, I didn’t get his name but he was really great Anne checked us in again & was so pleasant My plans in LA are all over & can be far from the hotel but I don’t mind it because of the view & the amazing service they provide

I plan on staying here for all future trips to LA Thank you to all of the staff & the little guy with glasses!

Michael DeGroot

Decent enough hotel Located in a great spot to walk for food or the beachBreakfast was fine just not a lot of selection compared to some others I’ve had

Our room had a balcony area, but was in a tight spot between buildings so no real view there We did get early check-in

Daniel Torres

Location is within walking distance of beach, but hotel is really not up to Hampton Inn standards Building is old, parking lot is small, and rooms are “spartan” in furnishings and decor No carpet in room and everything is dated in appearance

Towels were damp which may be result of housekeeping staff overloading dryers so that nothing tumbles and dries as it should Rooms could be cleaner too Staff is friendly, however

THIS IS A REVIEW ONLY ABOUT THEIR WEDDING EVENT OFFERINGSMy fiancee reached out to the hotel regarding having our wedding ceremony and reception there We met with what I presume is their Event Planner person Some of our family came along, so we could get their opinion as well

The Planner seemed to initially mislead us on the pricing, because all of us recalled her saying the per person price accounted for everything No mention of separate ceremony and reception room fees (which makes sense to us now) So, when we received a price estimate for a wedding package, it was much higher than the approximate calculations we previously did during our visit We brushed it off as a misunderstanding on our partA few weeks later we met with the Planner again, to try to bring the price down She mentioned the possibility of doing a day time wedding, which would be about $3000 cheaper We liked the idea, and provided updated information to the Planner She calculated an approximate total cost and we liked what we saw She said she would send us an official updated estimate in email My fiancee said the Planner said she would send it over the weekend, but she never did Finally, the following weekend my fiancee emailed the Planner asking for an update, to which the Planner replied that she was going to call my fiancee but realized she didn’t have her number She then asked for my fiancee to email her number to her We called BS on this, because the Planner had a whole week to do as she said she would, and never emailed my fiancee asking for any additional contact information until she was contacted by my fiancee My fiancee nevertheless gave her phone number, and the Planner didn’t call her that dayA week or so later, the Planner gets back to my fiancee, informing her that the Director said they won’t allow us to do a day time wedding on the day we want (a weekday), because they have businesses at the hotel during the week days This was not listed on the pamphlet for the wedding package offerings, and the Planner didn’t mention such a restriction eitherNeedless to say, we decided to not have our wedding at the Portofino Hotel Their customer service was horrible and they were unprofessional in their lack of effective and timely communication Such behavior is extremely disappointing, especially since it has to do with such a very important and special day, the planning of which is already stressful enough Get your act together Portofino People, because you look ridiculous

Markelle Reilly

Do not recommend This hotel was NOT worth the money Literally the only good thing was the view

$32 for parking is absolutely ridiculous being that we paid $400 per night for a small room that had no microwave We ordered room service for breakfast and got the notification saying it would be up to our room in about 30 minutes Hour and a half later it never showed up We couldn’t get ahold of the hotel or the restaurant to find out what was going on We finally got fed up with waiting and checked out My husband got this hotel as a surprise for our anniversary and we’ve honestly had a better stay at a Best Western that was way cheaper! I wouldn’t pay more that $200 for this hotel They’re basically robbing everyone

I wanted to love it because we stayed at another Pacifica property before, and it was a great experience all around, but I was left unimpressed by this property A few great things were location, the beds, the staff, but a few bad things were the noise from the traffic and not so charming view of the busy intersection, the extra charge for parking when they have a huge garage, the pool and spa location in the property, the snack bar was closed, no room service during the 3 night stay because of COVID? Not that I necessarily wanted it, but I’ve stayed at several other properties in the last 2 years, and I do not remember them canceling the room cleaning offering That said, the housekeeper was in the hallway all through the day, making plenty of noise and leaving her cart by our door a few times

Oh yeah, overnight and early morning, the traffic noise is less, but I could hear footsteps from the room above at those times to make up for itIt’s very likely that in a room in a higher level with courtyard view (they may even be able to see the ocean in the higher level) would be a much better experience but unlike many other properties where the difference in view is slight and worth a price premium, here the difference is so radical, I think it may be like staying at a different property (view and noise difference)Bottom line, I doubt I will ever stay in this property again with a room facing the street if I had known, I would have paid extra here it is worth Also 4 months ago we stayed at a property one mile north in the same street and the experience was far superior Great breakfast included The rate difference was minimal but we figured we’d try this one next time we’re going back to the other one

First and foremost Diamond & Benedict we’re excellent on every aspect regarding customer service Friendly, welcoming and attentive to their guests needs The rooms are clean

Location is great The only thing that could use some TLC is the hallway carpet, they were a little dingy and could use a good cleaningOther than that the place and staff were excellent!Thank you!

I’ll keep it short I think this hotel has a lot of potential and I would love to come back but there are a few things that they would need to change before I would consider another stayI’ll start with the pros- great views of the ocean from the balcony, short walk to the beach, across the street from a grocery store, friendly staff, nice patio with furniture and games

The cons- cockroach in our room, the most uncomfortable couch I’ve ever sat on, poor lighting in the room, and generally a dated feel to the room and building (minus the lounge area and patio, they were quite nice) I’ll also mention that many modern hotels have a desk and chair for business travelers Unfortunately, we did not have a desk or a chair in our room My wife was working remotely for a portion of our stay and it was not a comfortable space for workIt seems as if they started renovating an older hotel but for whatever reason stopped half way through If they fully updated it and improved on the things mentioned above, it would a really nice place that I would love to return to

Amazing service!!!Definitely recommend for clean rooms and tons of space for hosting eventsWe just hosted our wedding at this location and were AMAZED at how great the service wasThis particular Marriott’s Senior Event Manager, Elissa, truly went above-and-beyond in ensuring we received all the help we needed, fulfilled every request, and was very proactive from day 1

Our guests who stayed at this hotel also told us about how much they enjoyed their stay, as this is a place that has pretty much everything on site (restaurant, coffee place, room service, etc) It was close enough to the freeways to allow for an easy drive in and was right across the street from a major shopping center, so it was in a pretty nice and lively areaThe hotel staff were also very accommodating with all of our guests who checked in, as I remember we had a few folks who needed XYZ support and it seemed like they definitely got it when they arrivedI also found this hotel to be very military friendly, as we had a small military service held here and they seemed more than okay with us doing our thingAlthough it is a bit pricey, I think it is well worth it because it seems like the staff and management really go all out to support the guests and ensure they have what they needI would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to host a major event (they have HUGE ballrooms that take up 3 floors of space!) and I’d also recommend it to anyone looking for a nice room to stay in with easy access to local food and drink, as they have both on siteIf you do plan to host an event here (like a wedding or a work meeting or whatever), I would highly recommend Elissa as she was really great to us and gave us a ton of supportThank you, Elissa!

Rooms are nice Looks like it was recently renovated Hotel is very busy; hard to get any upgrades

Very convenient to the mall next doorStaff very friendly and professional While they weren’t able to check me in when I arrived, they did their best to get me a decent room as soon as possible

Iwanda Williams

The hotel itself is beautiful But when I made my reservations and paid for this room, I was not informed that it was a hold of $100 per night until I arrived at the hotel The manager did reduce the hold but I ask for the corporate office number

Everything I call the number it’s a fast busy signal I will not stay at this overrated hotel again

My family staying here after an accident at my parents home Staff helped us get adjoining rooms on 1 hour notice Then helped us move parents to the closest handicapped-accessible toom within a week

Breakfasts are wholesome and variety is good Cleaning staff is accommodating Rooms are generally quiet Gated parking is a plusThe only thing is that carpet and hard floors are so old and dirty they are sticky and socks turn black in a day Would love it if floors were steam cleaned periodically

I’m 62 old wife 64 We requested room on first floor We reserved 2 or 3 weeks in advance

Nice spot for family vacation The rooms are good size Includes small kitchen, full fridge, 2 burner stove, dishwasher, stocked cabinets with utensils, dishes and cookware

Plenty of closet storage, hangers, iron board w/ ironer Prefer the central air cool and heat blows from top of ceiling so cools whole room evenly We got double bed with sofa sleeperBreakfast buffet M-F is 6-9am Food is mediorcetypical fake eggs, country taters with sausage, flap jacks, oatmeal, cereal, muffins, yogurt, rainforest coffee, juice machineAll in all, breakfastsad Best thing was the fruits The only other problem was a stinky gas leak smell in our front door Lasted for a few hours Made our room smell like fartBest part about this hotel is location Close to all local amenties, Del Amo Mallhuge nice mall you can spend whole day shopping, lots of different restaurants to choose from, 5 min away from Redondo Beach, 8 min from Hermosa Beach

Had a big family reunion at the hotel! They were very accommodating with the family, with all of the check ins and the use of the Catalina room for games and activitiesOur specific room had a lovely view of the ocean The sliding glass door to our room had great noise canceling as well

We were able to hear live music from a local car show with it open and then close it to take a nap Great room, clean and functional, no issues!

Christina

Checking in for our reservation was fast and the hotel is walking distance to the pier The hotel is decorated nicely There is a bar in the middle of the lobby as well as a gift shop

My room had a decent view of the ocean and was a nice size The bed soft and comfy For one night the room was about $250, parking $32 and deposit $100

Sea & Bill Peterson

This Sonesta is outstanding The staff were wonderful, especially Angel Luis, the manager, was amazing

The only downside is the parking situation The fees are high and the automated system was not functioning People playing their personal music by the pool was irritating; especially the young kids and their heavy metal sounds We had to close our doors and go inside, despite having notified the front desk It would have been handy to have a restaurant on site

Probably the worse experience we had with customer service in this town The front desk was very rude and made a horrible first impression to us and our family friend’s on day 1 It was very clear that management was horrible and the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree in the hotel industry

Some positive things?The location is good Adjacent to some great restaurants and it’s on a quieter side of the area which was niceThe pool gets full sun which is nice and never gets talked about It’s nice if you want to get away from the hectic beach and sandGood value for the facility/rooms and cleanliness Parking is easy and it’s a quiet areaThe facility would be great if the front desk and management wasn’t horrible This is why they deserved 1 star Paying several hundreds a day to be talked to like you’re about to be evicted for not paying your rent is not cool

James Kolb

The hotel is at a great location, but FAR from being considered a true Hilton property The hotel and bar offer absolutely nothing complimentary (Coffee, tea or even water), breakfast items are a menu choice and are very healthy, but a little pricey The rooms are very comfortable and spacious

The staff was accommodating and friendlyThe pool and hot tub are clean and comforting, however the entire pool area had ONE functioning umbrella for a dozen plus chaise lounges When asked maintenance if they had more umbrellas, he stated parts are on order! Overall…very satisfied

Brian Martino

This is the perfect place for quiet, fun, rest, and relaxation The rooms are perfectly appointed Beautiful oceanfront view from my suite

My meal from foodservice was delivered quickly and friendly and was set up unobtrusively The steak was cooked perfectly! Which is saying something since its difficult to find a rare steak in SCalifornia! The check-in process was seamless and was made to feel valued The staff is just incredible, everyone! Thank you for a beautiful stay!

Stayed a week on Family vacationIn a pretty good location, fairly close to several attractions/entertainment options Beautiful beach within 8min of hotel; Manhattan Beach/Pier (Less busy than Santa Monica)Good staff service, with good breakfast, and reception food n beverage options

The Hotel does a decent job keeping the facility and rooms clean Just needs to be cleaned more frequently, if possible, and a little more thoroughlyOverall, a pretty satisfactory stay for the week!!!

Hai Parnes

The hotel located on the 405 But you don’t hear nothing They’re very kind clean, and just did remodel

Very good service! very recommend!! we had a lot of fun and a answer of all our requestLess good: If the Check is in 15:00 the room will not be ready before! also we were there 14 nights and the GYM where close because of broken mirror that didn’t fixed!but still we are recommended for this place the feeling it’s good you will love it

JF FK

Overall the staff in the kitchen area really made our stay pleasant The Mexican and Filipino lady always greeted us with a smile each morning and offered to make waffles prior to it being busy, the free dinner offered from Mon-Thurs was an extra added bonus too, free wine selections and beer craft on tap The ladies offered to take our plates it was next level service

The cleanliness of the hotel was amazing only down fall was the fact that house keeping is only offered on certain days unless you request it with 24hours notice No daily house keeping Parking was $18 per day Another issue I had was they only had one set of elevators so if your room is on the other side of the building it was a far walk to the elevators There was stairs but it could be an issue if you have to carry things up etc overall nice hotel

Tess German

Such an Exquisite Hotel and Grandeur presence Entire hotel immaculate and rooms are well appointed I like that the sink is outside/separate of the shower and toilet area

The shutter that divides the two beds is a genius idea The decor is elegant and traditional but yet felt modern The room size was massive for a standard double room It felt like a 500 sq ft room The coffee in the room was very goodUnfortunately, we only stayed one day and arrived late so we didn’t get to eat at the restaurant or enjoyed the outside courtyard nor the many areas to explore and to just relax and soak in the atmosphere We did, however, get to enjoy the fireplace while having a late night snack I would highly recommend eating at the restaurant as the food smelled heavenly Additionally, there are many shopping centers/plaza across the street which we didn’t get to take advantage of as well The entire area is completely safe and very well lit as it is a very lively town The hotel does have a private parking for a fee I will definitely come back and stay longer

Lisa Ford

Ayres Hotel is comfortable and homely Staff are friendly and we loved the pool and spa Rooms were serviced daily and everything was spotlessly clean and today

Location is good, next time I would ask for a room not overlooking the freeway Stayed here with my husband and adult son Plenty of room for the three of us and privacy between the beds and the shutters were a great idea We will be back!

Lynne Henley

The employee that was on the desk the night of my arrival was very professional and he greeted me with a sincere and warm welcome I was so exhausted from the work day, that he had to literally verbally guide me to my room The room was exceptionally clean throughout which made the night very relaxing for me

I will truly recommend this hotel to my guest and use it again for local retreats

The Manhattan location of Shade is retro, stuck in the 90s with it’s mahogany decor, faded carpets and dark interior design If you’re lucky the get a ground floor room you might encounter the sweet sounds of restaurant and kitchen clattering The hotel is centrally located near the pier and many local restaurants

The bed was firm and comfortable, the ac worked too well, and the bathrooms were more like a 25-3 star hotel We were surprised at how busy the hotel was, we couldn’t check in until check-in time, 3 I’ve usually found it quite easy at other hotels to get an earlier check-in

Cory Moulton

Great location and comfortable rooms, if a bit dog eared and dated Carpets etc could use a refresh Staff is wonderful and the hotel has a very comfortable vibe

Food good as well Only compaint is the $20 per person / per night “resort fee” So annoying Just charge AND list the rates you need to charge in order to make money Or, let me decline resort fee at check in and take away my rights to use the elevators, pool and public restrooms

Elizabeth Peterson

Highly recommend The Shade Hotel After issues with our AirBnB, we decided to stay here From the booking, through the changes, checkin, valet, room, restaurant, bar, to our departure, everything was great

The staff all went above and beyond to make sure our stay was great Location was perfect for our trip We will definitely be back to stay again Thank you to Ron, Marissa, Gustavo and Daniel for making our stay amazing!

We had a nice stay at this hotel and it was a positive experience overall We arrived a little bit early, around 1:30pm and we pre-checked in so that once our room was ready we could head up We were excited to try the restaurant but it closes and every customer must be out by 2pm

Seems a strange time to close down when you’re most likely to have guests waiting around for their rooms, interested in having drinks and food while they wait This was very inconvenient and one reason for a loss of a star The room was clean and pleasant with a lovely balcony Large shower with a tub inside, great bathroom with bidet and heated toilet seat Room was tidy, although desk chair was worn, with parts of the fabric missing It was fine I also took off a star for the exercise room They have one treadmill, one elliptical, one bicycle, and a couple of weight machines No free weights at all, not a single one There is one single mat to be used and that’s it I guess the guests here don’t tend to exercise much This was a disappointment for me, as I counted on at least a couple of free weights Parking was easy and overall we did enjoy our stay They only clean every other day, so if you’re staying for two nights like we did, you will not have your room cleaned during your stay

M Z

I’m very impressed by the tidiness of the facility and the hospitality of the staff here The room was sparkling clean and made me feel extremely COVID-safe I really loved the oversized shower tube and the super comfy bed

In addition, the restaurant affiliated with the hotel has very high quality food I loved the unagi don I ordered Make sure you order ahead of time because they can be busy during dinner rush hours!

This is a gem of a hotel located near Torrance with its own parking lot and extended lot for events The entrance is quite striking with blossom trees and very well kept entrance in keeping with the Japanese style The lobby sports a simple entrance with hotel lobby and check-in on the right and the Japanese restaurant directly opposite the entrance

There is a stunning fire built into the wall between the lobby and the bar in the restaurant also Rooms are a good sized and very well equipped King size bed is very comfortable and the room has a good tv with many channels to keep everyone happy Each room has a balcony with full height windows that can slide open to allow fresh air to enter There is a safe and a jewelry store and the room also comes equipped with tea and coffee and a coffee machine along with an iHome music player A working table with plugs for notebook and computer connectivity adjoins the window area making for a relaxing place to work The bathroom is well equipped with a toilet and bidet and a deep Japanese style bath for relaxing and a wet room shower AVeda shampoo and conditioners and bath salts are provided and available on request The hotel prides itself on its covid policy with each room being cleaned to a very high standard which gives confidence to guests Staying here is nice, it’s quiet so easy to work or relax There are antibacterial dispensers located in the elevators and a snack bar downstairs along with an ATM I highly recommend this hotel Great service, wonderful staff, super clean and totally in keeping with Japanese style with an awesome on-site Japanese restaurant on the ground floor
