Manhattan Beach Hotels & Accommodations

Great hotel! Convenient parking (locked with gates), clean, good amenities (iron, fridge, coffee maker with coffee and teas, hairdryer, iron, shared microwave), very good breakfast (cereals, yogurt, fruits, waffles, eggs and sausage patties, bagels and cream cheese). Also, it has onsite restaurant with a 50% dining offer for guests.

Most important: we got an excellent nights sleep. Second floor in the back of the hotel (rm 222). It was quiet and we found the bed excellent. Service was helpful, polite. And the Wifi worked reasonably well - no problems with that. Also important is we booked the room for $84 (total) and in LA/Manhattan Beach area that is cheap. Walk in price was $109+tax. So all my suggestions are just ”future ideas” and I have no grounds to complain about anything since we slept really well there. And yes, we will be back again no future trips. Things that could be better: o ice maker ”out of service” - they had one unit and it was connected, would make whirring noise when pushing in the dispenser, but no ice. We used the in-room 'fridge to freeze some water bottles to keep our picnic things cool the next day. o inner courtyard looks like a small prison yard: the former pool and hottub are covered with what looks like roofing material and the fence around the pool area is locked off. No plants is the main problem. This could be a gem of a garden. My advice is to visit estate sales and garage sales to buy all the *large* potted plants they can find cheap (or free). o renovate the rooms a bit: e.g. rip out the old carpets and put in any (yes, even linoleum) floor that can be mopped - much cleaner, no place for fleas, bedbugs, or dust mites to live in. Wash the walls and paint where repairs have been made - simple things can make the room much more pleasant to be in. o put a window screen on the back window - which essentially faces a wall. But it was good (quiet) ventilation since it wasn't facing the street. o small grey mark on the pillow case and a stray hair on the bed - harmless stuff to us but other people might find more objectiionable. And some stains in the carpet that probably will never come out. Not a big deal.

Checks all the boxes for a family stay except housekeeping, which is still challenged. Bring flip flops for walking on the floors and Greenworks cleaning spray. Wipe down all touchable surfaces when you arrive. Towels are changed and beds made on the third day but there is no cleaning of the kitchen area or bathrooms, which is unacceptable to me. I will come again because it's a great location and the staff are wonderful But I will definitely be bringing cleaning supplies doing my own cleaning. Would happily pay for optional daily cleaning. Heads up to hotel management on stocking rooms. There was no bottom sheet for the pill out bed and only one pillow. No tea towels on arrival. No toilet paper, dishwasher tabs or dish soap restocking on third day. That's just sloppy.

Pleasant stay and room is spacious. Everything is clean and good for people who plays golf. Lobby is good to hang out to chill and there’s a supermarket and eating place near the hotel, it is walking distance. Would be good to inform customer on the Marriott points when checking in or checking out. Hopefully I am still able to obtain the points. Overall satisfied and everyone including the housekeeping team is friendly.

UN HORROR! Nunca en la vida nos pasó, ni escuchamos de nadie a quien le haya pasado algo así. Nos vimos en la obligación de dormir una noche en el hotel y a la mañana siguiente decidimos pasar otra por cuestiones de no tener que trasladar todas nuestras cosas a otro lado. Me acerque con mi papá al mostrador para reservar una noche más, y la señorita (de nombre Ana) nos comento que no había ningún problema con que nos quedemos, que podía hacernos la reserva en ese momento. Mi papá le preguntó si no necesitaba ningún depósito más, y ella dijo que no había problema, que podíamos pagar incluso DESPUÉS DE NUESTRA ESTADÍA, así que nos quedamos más que tranquilos. A la mañana siguiente salimos a conocer la ciudad y volvimos al hotel tarde por la noche. Al llegar, la llave del hotel no abría la puerta de la habitación, por lo que me acerco al mostrador donde había otra recepcionista, quien me pidió el número de habitación y sin preguntar ni fij**** nada, me hizo llaves nuevas. Cuando abro la puerta de la habitación noto que NUESTRAS COSAS NO ESTABAN, PERO SI LAS COSAS DE ALGUIEN MÁS, Y QUE HABÍA ALGUIEN ADENTRO. Asustados, vamos al mostrador a preguntar porque nuestras cosas no estaban en el nuestro cuarto y donde estaban! A lo que me contestan que, “como nosotros nos habíamos ido sin pagar y no teníamos reservación, ellos alquilaron la habitación a otra persona”. La recepcionista de la noche llama a la tal Ana, quien afirma que ella no nos hizo la reservación porque nosotros no pagamos nada. Le recuerdo que ella nos dijo que podíamos pagar DESPUÉS, y lo niega (siendo su palabra contra la nuestra por supuesto, siendo nosotros DOS PERSONAS); después me pide hablar nuevamente con su compañera, y comunicándose con ella en inglés y creyendo que nosotros no entendíamos el idioma, y estando el teléfono en altavoz (siendo esto escuchado por todos nosotros que si entendíamos el idioma que hablaban) le pide que corrobore si la reserva estaba hecha o no, porque ella creía haberla hecho por la mañana, que tal vez la reserva no se había guardado bien y que por eso se había vuelto a reservar por Booking. En base a todo esto, se tomaron el atrevimiento de SACAR TODAS NUESTRAS PERTENENCIAS DEL CUARTO QUE OCUPABAMOS Y PONERLAS EN UN CUARTO SIN USO DEL HOTEL, MANIPULANDOLAS SIN NUESTRO CONSENTIMIENTO. Tenían mi número telefónico de este país y podrían COMO MÍNIMO habernos llamado para consultar, antes de manipular nuestras pertenencias de esa forma. Nos dejaron en la calle un viernes por la noche, y sin saber si nos faltaba algo de todo lo que habían sacado de nuestro cuarto o no. Nunca se nos paso por la cabeza que pueda pasar algo así. Adjunto foto de cómo, al llegar por la noche, vimos que dejaron nuestras valijas en un cuarto en desuso.

Forgot to comment, I remember that the parking brother at the door was very warm! Hotel location is very good, use yelp navigation to walk to find a delicious steakhouse!

Perfect place for a shuttle airport hotel! Shuttle very 15 minutes and a great place to prepare for a trip. Pool and bar is nice. Spent way more on drinks and food than I imagined but not much around… it was fair in the end. Great bar staff.

The breakfast is quite good, the variety is many, it is not difficult to eat. 2 km from Manhattan Beach, 25 minutes walk, it feels good to walk in the morning. nice environment. The room bed is slightly smaller, two people are a bit crowded

The most important function of a good hotel is to enable a good night’s sleep in a clean and comfortable environment. During our four night stay, the hotel was perfectly quiet. The bed was comfortable. We were not awakened even once by external noises. Our room was immaculately clean. The maid came each day and had our room back in order before noon. We stayed in room 636. It had all the amenities we want from a hotel room. It had a refrigerator, a safe, a large TV, plenty of drawer space, and two comfortable beds. The bathroom had a separate tub, walk in shower, toilet area and sink. This is the largest functional bathroom area of any hotel room that we have seen. The hotel is a green facility. It is off the electric grid, with all power generated from solar panels on the roof. The front desk staff is very efficient, with check in taking about a minute and contactless express check out available. When we needed help with luggage, a staff person was available. When we needed an item we forgot to bring from home, a staff member brought the item to our room quickly. The hotel has a first class Japanese restaurant on the premises known as Ise Shima. It was open for three meal times. Room service is available. We visited for the breakfast buffet, which featured numerous healthy items for a traditional Japanese or American breakfast. We had a perfect experience in the restaurant, too. For the cost of the room, the entire experience is a great value. One can obviously see the great pride the staff has in delivering a perfect hotel experience. The hotel has free parking out front and security at the entrance. A guest cannot take the elevator above the first floor without a room key. The Wi-Fi was free and easy to access. It worked well. A public computer is available on the first floor. A small store also exists, accessible only with a room key. The hotel location is ideal for business or tourists. It is centrally located in the South Bay withi minutes of freeways I-405, I-110, and Route 91. LAX is about 20-25 minutes, downtown LA is less than 30 minutes, Redondo Beach is ten minutes, and Disneyland or Knott’s Berry Farm is about a 45 minute drive. We use the hotel as a base for visit of all attractions in the LA basin.

At most hotels we usually struggle all night trying to block out the parking lot lights so we LOVED the blackout shades here. We found the room to be very clean. Firm mattress. Can't beat the price! Walk is .8 miles to the beach through a quiet residential neighborhood. The bathrooms lack towel racks and TP holder (maybe because remodeling is still a work in progress?) but that would be a nice addition to the bathroom. We were greeted and treated kindly. You can hear cars whoosh by on the street but not loud enough to wake even light sleepers. Minutes to the airport but no loud airport noise. We'd definitely stay again.
