Unbeatable location and walking distance from everything you want to see in Santa Monica, across from the beach and down the street from the best bars and restaurants. At $125/night you'd be hard pressed to find a better deal. Checking in/out was easy and Silvio was accommodating when I asked to edit our reservation to knock off a night when I was forced to come a day late last minute. Only flaw, which he warns you about, is the noise which gets pretty loud and the room is directly above the speakers of the club below. However, if you plan to be out anyways the club will probably be closing by the time you get home so you may miss the noise. On top of that, the location plus the price would definitely make me return and I would recommend this place to anyone visiting LA
