Ξενοδοχεία Romantic σε California, United States

"This hotel is in a great location in Downtown LA. From LAX, I took the FlyAway bus ($12.75) and then two subway stops ($1.75, flat fare) to Pershing Square, and it was just across the street. There's a paid outdoor parking lot opposite the hotel (I don't recommend renting a car in LA – traffic can be bad, parking is expensive, and California gas prices are high, around $2/liter. Public transport is only $1.75 per ride, with a $5 daily cap, and a $20 refill on a Tap Card is usually enough to get around LA). Safety-wise, I'd say it's decent. It's in a transitional area between the more dangerous Skid Row and the safer Financial District in DTLA. I'd advise against coming back too late or wandering around at night. If you do come back late, it's best to take an Uber. If you're walking, try not to stare at the homeless, and don't engage if they talk to you. The hotel has a live front desk and security. You need to use your key card to enter after 6 PM and also to use the elevator. It feels very safe during the day, so you can confidently go out and explore. Theft and robbery aren't as prevalent in the US as some might think; you'll see plenty of people playing on their phones while waiting at traffic lights, and people carry their backpacks normally. The hotel rooms, while not huge, have distinctive lighting. There's a tablet by the bed that allows you to activate a 'sleep mode' with one tap, and you can control the lights and TV channels through it, which is very cozy and comfortable. However, there's no kettle for hot water. For someone like me who likes hot drinks, you can go to the bar on the first floor and ask the staff for hot water for free. They also have various free tea bags. Coffee and alcoholic drinks are extra, though. If you don't feel like going out at night, ordering a drink and chatting with an American is a great way to experience the nightlife – Americans are really good conversationalists!"

"It was already evening when we arrived in Monterey. After checking in, we hurried to dine at a Thai restaurant not far away. The town was very quiet. Although we didn’t pay much attention to the environment around the hotel, when we went to the hotel for coffee early in the morning, we saw how beautiful the sea and sky next to the hotel were. The guest rooms were also very clean. I felt that the trip was worthwhile. It was a pity that we should have stayed one more night. I guess I’ll make up for it next time. 😊"

"The hotel is old and appears renovated at some point but perhaps not by contractors experienced in finish work. Overall, nice stay because we made it a nice stay for us. DO NOT PAY FOR THE BREAKFAST. TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT. Floors were squeaky so we heard walking until wee hours of the morning. Choose a top floor if you can. Cleaning crews were noisy in the morning right outside our door so don't count in sleeping in pass 9:00 AM. Toilet was loose and rocked as you sit. Shower and sink had mold in the grout joints giving the impression of unsanitized although the smell of bleach upon arrival was quite strong. Our window had wood rot and the crank was broken so the window could only be pushed or pulled open by the muntins. Hotel was a bit pricey for what you get but this is a tourist destination so expect mediocre for high price."

"This hotel is well-managed. There's a self check-in and check-out on the 3rd floor, and the security guard at the entrance is very welcoming. This is a chain hotel, with locations in both San Francisco and LA. It's right in downtown San Francisco, very close to Union Square, making it super convenient for getting around. The window view is also quite nice."

"Facilities: The heating in the room is super powerful, and the seaside is humid. After the sea breeze is super cold, turn it on and let the wind out immediately. Don't be too comfortable! The basic facilities in the room are very good! There are also timed warm lights in the bathroom, each design is very practical, and the hotel is very thoughtful. Hygiene: clean and tidy! Environment: There are enough recreational items in the hotel, and there is no problem staying in the hotel for a whole day; it is close to the beach, and you can walk to Moonstone in 5 minutes. It is very convenient, and it is a seaside where you can watch the sunset! There is a complete plank road, which is very safe. Service: The service of the hotel and the restaurant next door are very good!"

"What a gorgeous place! We extended our stay as we loved it so much. The staff are excellent. They offer a high standard service and not a stone is left untouched. The place was immaculate and attention to detail was impressive. We loved it and will certainly be back."

"The hotel is an old hotel, but it is very comfortable, with perfect infrastructure, good service attitude, clean and hygienic, and beautiful environment."
