Compared to the hotel rates my conference was held in this was a fantastic bargain - at the time of this writing, I could have paid Standard Room $359.00/night instead I was able to stay all three nights for considerably less than one night at the hotel. Don't worry about no AC - check the weather and you'll see the nights (for my stay were in the sub-70's) were cool. The location is very close to LAX with only about a 30 min ride. It's a 15-minute walk to Henney's Tavern right across from Hermosa Beach Pier... Don't miss walking or biking the strand - great people-watching area!
Taylor provided a clean room complete with a towel awaiting. The bed was comfortable. Taylor was affable and polite. I would stay here again...
