I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On one hand, the location was perfect for exploring Manhattan Beach with great restaurants nearby. However, our room was extremely loud all night, making it hard to rest properly. The coffee machine in the room was a nice touch, though I wish all hotels had this as a standard.
