Overall, it was a positive experience, and the staff were all friendly. They greeted us even when we’re just passing by or even when we’re not necessarily intending to do so ourselves. That was a small gesture, but a very friendly and kind one as an indicator to pay attention to the guests. The housekeeping was dealt with in a timely manner upon request. Here are some of my reviews, and they are solely for what could be improved: 1) Parking Valet parking was $60 a day, which I found uneconomical (though I hadn’t compared to other parking options in the area, so I am not certain if it's reasonably priced or not). 2) Noise from the room above The floor/ceiling is (or I assume) very thin that we could hear every step of the person upstairs, which was not desirable (although it might depend on who and how people walk). 3) Housekeeping On the 1st night, the body soap bottle was almost empty while shampoo and conditioner were full - we requested the full bottle the following night, and they brought it to us right away. There were no hand towels (we simply assumed that they didn't provide them). Then we later noticed that they forgot to leave hand towels on the 1st night, as we were provided after room making on the 3rd night. The housekeeper came and did all except that the used glasses were left on the table as well as the empty body soap bottle in the bathroom(?); the coffee maker (Keurig) was possibly broken, so the coffee was lukewarm...

The room had a very bad smell. I wish the front desk had asked me for my Marriott Bonvoy member number to add the points. Overall it was a nice stay, just needs some improvements.

Very clean and spacious rooms. Nice large lobby downstairs with lots of comfortable seating. I am an early riser and my family likes to sleep in. I enjoyed the lobby in the mornings, grabbed a coffee at Waterman’s and sat there watching tv or reading. Nice pool and hot tub on the second floor. The location was excellent. The pier, beach, 3rd street promenade, Trader Joe’s, Target, restaurants, shopping, all within a few minutes walk. Easy pickup by Waymo and uber right outside the hotel. The little coffee shop downstairs had limited offerings but still it was a very convenient way to get a coffee and a quick bite especially since we were there over Christmas and most other places were closed. Would definitely stay here again.

Everything was perfect. Some notable highlights: Very attentive and friendly staff who go above and beyond, modern and clean rooms and amenities, gym in very good shape, excellent location close to the Pier and right by a metro station. Breakfast was not included but there is a cafe by the lobby and the prices were reasonable.
