Miyako Hybrid Hotel Torrance

Wow! This beautiful little hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. We decided to do a staycation while attending the 2nd Annual Sake Festival at the hotel on Saturday. We didn't want to day drink and drive back home to West LA, so we booked a one-night stay here for $225, including taxes, on Expedia. There's plenty of free self parking, which is just great. Valet services are available if you need them, but we didn't. For that room rate, I really didn't expect much, but the Deluxe King room was massive! Very clean and just gorgeous! Large bathroom with a shower and tub area separate from the bathroom sink and mirror and Japanese toilet. There was every amenity you could think of in the bathroom, and lots of towels. After dinner and drinks at the hotel, we took a soothing soak in the bathtub, then wrapped ourselves in the plush robes, which was very nice. The king bed was large and comfy, with 6 pillows and very nice linens. There was a living room area with a couch, table, desk, and a separate little bar area with a sink and faucet and microwave. The only downside was the room temperature, as the hotel has central a/c, which you cannot individually control. Engineer brought us a box fan so we could sleep comfortably that evening, as it was otherwise too warm.

HVAC issues. Changed rooms to get A/C. 2nd room also no A/C. We were told it wasn't working bc we took a hot shower. Poorly handled.

Have stayed at the Hybrid around 15-20 nights in the last year and I can see the place going downhill. 1. My last trip, there was no hot water in the room and the TV didn't work. 2. This trip, there were no bath towels in the shower, the TV didn't work and when the person in the next room turned on the shower it was so loud it felt like an airport runway. Also, there was no ironing board or iron provided. Management needs to take note of this...

Excellent place to stay. Very clean and within walking distance of several eateries. Will stay here again.

I have stayed here a couple of times and enjoyed it. This time I did not. I booked an Exec.King, which is located on the top floor (which I prefer because it is quiet) and has a sliding door which you can open to get fresh air and step out into a small area. At check in I was told I was "upgraded" to a 2nd floor suite. After staying in the room for 2 nights it was actually a "downgrade". This 2nd floor "suite" instead of on the top floor (where my original room was) this room looked straight into the parking lot. There was no sliding door so no fresh air, just windows. Because of its location on the 2nd floor, during the early evening and early morning there was a banging sound from either above or below. I suspect it was from below since the floor below is the lobby area, restaurant and public rooms, it was loud enough that it woke me up, this happened both nights. Like another post said the Wi-Fi constantly went on and off. Yes, the room is larger but the noise, no fresh air and looking at the parking lot was not an "upgrade". I suspect they didn't have a room on the top floor and wanted to make it sound like I was going to be in a better room. Not the case.
