Guest Reviews

• Camelia (10/5): -
• Knez (8/5): -
• Maximilian (8/5): - Sehr schönes apartment mit sehr guter Ausstattung Die Lage ist gut, könnte aber noch nãher am Strand sein.
• Shawna (7/5): Great stay and location and arrival/departure. Parking was only issue. - Parking became an issue. I paid to have parking and then ended up in visitor parking and having to park 2 blocks away the last night to not get towed.
• Petr (10/5): -
• Lisa (6/5): Great potential to be almost 5 star, but let down by poor cleanliness & service, so nearer 3.5 star. - Despite busy road outside, good location and only 10 minute walk to Santa Monica pier. Apartment well equipped and spacious, with added bonus of pool and gym. Wasn’t overly clean and although we mentioned this to customer service/reception, who then advised they would address this, unfortunately nothing happened. Likewise we requested our coffee pods be replenished (advised on check-in this was ok) no additional coffee pods received. A tour of the apartment block re trash, pool & gym would have been helpful, but had to locate/work this out for ourselves. Finally road outside started getting busy from 4.30am each morning, causing us to wake.
• AYA (9/5): 最高！ - 5人家族で行ったのですがとても広く 快適に過ごせました。 室内に洗濯機があるのが本当に助かった。 プールも温水で子達はとても楽しめました。 サンタモニカピアまで歩くと大人の足で15分、子連れだともう少しかかる感じです。 スーパーが徒歩圏内に2件あるので本当に便利だった。 近くのイタリアンデリにも行ってみたかったなぁ。 レンタカーを借りていたので、ここのホテルを拠点にあちこち行けて本当に楽しい度になった。 またロサンゼルスに行く事があればこちらを利用したいです。 夜、車の走る音がダイレクトに聞こえるため 子供が寝付けないと言い、廊下側の寝室へ移動しました。 廊下側はさほど気にならなかったようで寝れました。 私は音があっても寝れるタイプなのでメインベッドルームでぐっすり寝てました。
• Maria (8/5): Würden wieder kommen 👍 - Schöne saubere Wohnung für 4-6 Personen. 15 min zum Strand. Ein neuer Supermarkt wird gerade gegenüber fertiggestellt. Restaurant sind auch einige in der Nähe. Pool war warm. Abends kann man gemütlich oben am Dach bei einem Feuer sitzen. Bahn gleich um die Ecke. Keine kostenlosen Parkplätze vorhanden. Gegen Gebühr gibt es aber eine Tiefgarage. Vordere Schlafzimmer sehr laut. Beide Schlafzimmer schlecht zum abdunkeln. Check in war ein wenig kompliziert bzw. hat der Vermieter sich erst spät gemeldet . Kein Selbst-Checkin.
• Julie (10/5): Brilliant! Great property, fantastic facilities, amazing views, super clean and fab location. - Great property, fantastic facilities, amazing views, super clean and fab location.
• Guest (8/5): -
• Annett (10/5): - Superschönes Appartement. 10 Minuten zu Fuß bis zum Pier.
• D.P. (8/5): -
• chieko (7/5): 大成功でした♪ - 写真の通りの素晴らしいアパートメントでした。ロケーションもとても良くて、サンタモニカのプロムナードから徒歩10分、トラムステーションはすぐ横、ベニスビーチやメルローズ辺りからは車で10分弱、そして人気のレストランも割合近くに沢山ありました。 気にしていたトラムの音もそこまで心配は要らない程（私は耳栓必要）でしたし、何より窓が大きくて気持ち良く、景色の良さにも圧倒されました。 プールもありましたので孫は喜んで入っていましたが、静か過ぎてちょっと戸惑いました。 とても清潔であったか？というとまぁまぁでした。でもここはアメリカですので良かった方だと思います。 窓にかかっているスクリーンが薄いので早朝から明るくなり目が覚めます（私はアイマスク必要） 洗濯機乾燥機がありとても便利でしたが、音が物凄くうるさくて驚きました。でもここはアメリカなので使えたことが良かったです(笑) 備品のタオルとハンガーがもう少し沢山置いてあると良かったです。洗濯の回数が増えてしまいました。
• Marc (10/5): Exceptional -
• Petr (3/5): Poor - dirt under the bed and on the mattresses, heating not working, toilet not flushing in the bathroom. unfortunately no one responded or communicated, no one came to fix the toilet or the heating during the whole stay despite urgencies !!! they had the money paid in advance !!! I am very shocked that they rented this apartment with a non-functioning toilet to someone after us according to Mr. Fernando's review from January 2025 and did not fix the toilet, despite us pointing it out to them on the 1st day of arrival and then when we handed over the keys !
• Tamure (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alison (1/5): DISASTER!!! - The property manager changed our accommodation 2 hours before we arrived and sent to another hotel.. no explanation told however after travelling 33 hours we were exhausted. Being an ex travel agent, I spent many hours researching for the right accommodation for our family and didn’t even get to stay there 🤬The shores hotel 15 minutes out of town had no washing machine, no dryer, the A/C was portable and had wires and tubing laying everywhere! The glass top on the kitchen table was not secure! We had to hire a vehicle as we were too far out of town as I have a son with a disability. They have offered a 10% refund however that won’t cover our out of pocket expenses! This stay in Santa Monica was an absolute disaster… I would really appreciate Booking.com supporting us and seek the 50% refund we deserve… your customer was NOT satisfied with the treatment we received….and DIDNT GET WHAT WE PAID FOR…..😡😢 See above explanation
• Steven (9/5): Superb -
• Katie (10/5): Wonderful time in the penthouse - Clean very nice and new
• Adreanne (10/5): Great stay at this apartment. Very clean and convenient. - The apartment was very clean and close to everything. Nothing
• Chf2000 (9/5): Superb - The Ocean is quite far away - so i would not call it Oceanview :-)
• Nicole (8/5): Loved it! Would consider staying again! - Beautiful apartment, modern, comfortable and clean. Beautiful terraces and lovely pool. A bit too bright in the bedrooms.
• Ste (8/5): Supernice penthouse appartment - Really nice appartment in a newly built building. Tidy, well equipped, penthouse floor. Just what you can see from the pictures. We spent a week in Santa Monica and everything is within a 20 minute walking distance. Easy accessible parking. Highly recommended! No gym access available on the property. The pool area pictured is not on this property (there is a pool though). Adress is further east then indicated Communication: several emails, messages through booking.com, What'sApp etc from so many different people, sometimes with somewhat conflicting messages.
• Brenda (10/5): Great location. - This is a great location. Walking distance to the beach and shops. Communication was clear and prompt. We didn’t get to use the pool because we ran out of time. The Nespresso did not work for me. I don’t know if it was faulty or if it was human error on my part. It didn’t ruin our trip, there was a coffee pot and coffee for use.
• Moore (9/5): Great base for your LA trip. - Location was ideal for exploring Santa Monica and beyond. Plenty of space and the BBQ facilities on the rooftop were fantastic for relaxing outdoors in the evening. Didn't particularly dislike anything about the property. It was very well set up.
• Zack (7/5): Great, but little things that could changed to make it better. - Excellent coffeemashine: Nespresso! Best coffe you can get in Santa Monica! Giant TV screen in the living room. Excellent AC (heating and cooling). Perfect kitchen, dishwasher, laundry, tumbler - all there. You will love the private heated pool. Great garage for your car. Great view of the city. In the add it says that there is an oceanview from the appartment. Well, the Ocean is about 1 mile+ away from the appartment. With binoculares is a view possible. Without - I couldn't see it. Some people may have better eyes than mine and can see it. The guest bedroom....well, the window in there is somehow special. It never gets dark in the bedroom. No night jalousines in the bedroom. For people who can only fall asleep in a complete dark room, that bedroom will be a challenge. We spent about one hour to find the adress. The street nbr. was wrong in the add. It is not 615 but 800. Wifi: wont work on my phone. I guess it works only on phones with wireless charging system. Mine doesn't supports wireless charging.
