Thank you for the review! Our staff tries extremely hard to ensure our guests have a great stay. We are happy that we were able to accomplish that while you were here with us. All of our suites are fully equipped with a separate kitchen, living area, and bedroom. Our pool is heated at 82 degrees Fahrenheit and open from 9am to 9pm for guests to use. We are conveniently located one block away from the 3rd street promenade for anyone interested in shopping and a seven minute walk to the Santa Monica Pier. We appreciate the feedback about our décor and will seek out solutions. Thank you again and we look forward to seeing you in the future.
