The location couldn't be better! Right at the foot of the Santa Monica Pier! Entrance to the high way right there close. Bicycle rental place and parking garage right across the street! Free use of boogie boards included. Cool tubular fireplace in the lobby with a warm gas fire crackling was a nice touch. Also we had a very tasty and quality brunch at the bar of the hotel restaurant, and the bartender was so very nice, and shared around a complimentary fresh carrot juice he had just made from huge carrots brought back from the farmer's market a couple blocks away! We loved our stay at the Pierside!

So the experience is definitely needed to work on as when I got there we got charged for valley parking yet we had to park our own car as there were no valley available. As well they charged me incidental fee which is fine but hasn’t been returned.. as well ima assume that the manager went to where our car parked and was just keeping an eye on us which ima go ahead and assume because I’m possibly brown and it looks like only white people would be there and he went all the way to our front window and peeked his head and asked us if we were ballet parking .. honestly was a bad experience over all.

Amazing stay! Perfect location, nice staff. What they can do better: put a multi machine on Gym area, fix A/C from Gym, put a shower at the Pool, have better options for breakfast at the restaurant. Overall it's amazing!

The hotel is in a convenient location and very walkable. The property looks like it has been renovated, and the decor choices look great. Lobby is nice. Staff were friendly. The property does have lingering issues of an older building: Bathroom was small, toilet was weak, the lights went out while my daughter was in the shower. Our room had a pull out bed but no bedding. We did not visit the on site restaurant.

The only good part about this hotel is the hotel staff was really great! Other than that, it wasn’t the best experience. I wish I would have spent my money on a different hotel. Had to change rooms, phone didn’t work, the elevator was so small (I’m claustrophobic) I had to walk the stairs every single time I went up or down from the room. Not to mention I had 2 kids with me, 1 of which is a toddler. The site makes the hotel look a lot nicer than it is.
