there is one morning the kids next door was yelling and crying, and i could hear it quite well

morning breakfast was great. everything was close and kids had a great time in the pool.

i liked that those who were only staying there were allowed in. it was safer my kids and i.

it s hard to give kids a bath without tub

would have been nice to know when we made the booking so we could have reserved pool time for the kids

i guess they had kids and the kids constantly were jumping and stomping the floor which we could hear as early

not walkable for families with little kids

had very noisy neighbours and woke to kids stomping on the floor above

the only time available on saturday was 3pm which cut into our beach and shopping time, but my kids really

we had to have our kids sleep on a roll away cot

thing i would change is an option for a room with a bathtub instead of just a shower (for little kids to bathe

we were five in a room with two queen beds and a sofa bed, so one of the kids had to sleep in the sofa bed,

we have five kids and all we were looking for was some quick pancakes to get us rolling for the day and $12

kids enjoyed the pool

very nice hotel, great location for santa monica pier, close to kids playground.

the kids were looking forward to swimming in the pool but we werent able to and that made the kids

myself & my husband along with my 2 kids under the age of two basically had to stay in a full sizes room

traveling with kids is an adventure to say the least, and when you re expecting a pool and an in-house

it was a real turn off when you are traveling with your kids

staff and a super handy location if you have young kids - a swimming pool o

the pool was big enough and warm enough to be good fun for kids

the kids loved the pool (although it was a bit small)

kids really enjoyed the pool, which was a great escape from busy santa monica pier

cribs were too small for our kids, but that's just unfortunate

kids really enjoyed the pool, which was a great escape from busy santa monica pier

for kids you can stroll to the beach in a minute and people watch and town is only 10 minute walk

it was quite noisy at night, which when traveling with little kids can be an issue.

the tv was great for the kids too

location is at the top around the corner from the beach it was great kids loved it we all enjoyed it recommended

no pool for kids

explained what the hotel had to offer, gave my kids free sunglasses and buckets / shovel for the beach too

still a very uneasy feeling when you re traveling with 2 small kids

there was no pool or area to play with kids

rooms were a bit small, we booked a family room for 2 adults and 2 kids and i felt it was a bit small

rooms were clean and my kids enjoyed it

didn't feel very comfortable/safe with are 2 small kids

my kids wanted some upscale t -shirts or resort wear and there was none really nearby either

the kids shouldn t be allowed to take over the entire pool

there is no option of healthy kids meal.

kids really enjoyed the proximity to santa monica pier and the rides

were screaming kids running around the lobby in dripping wet bathing suits, which i thought was a bit

you can hear them specially with kids

that was scary for the kids

pool outdated and not staff to moderate the kids

first night we got in bit late and did dinner in the bar area, rather than going out

and drinks were very expensive, not many good options for kids

location close to santa monica pier, super friendly staff, nice rooms, great breakfast, kids loved the swimming

would definitely return and bring the hubby and kids next time

really enjoyed our time by the pool, the food was nice and the kids had fun

and lay-out of our suite, big painting fell of the wall during the night and almost fell on our kids

wall at rooftop pool is too low.. kids could climb it. needs immediate attention.

many families with kids

the gym is perhaps one of the best (if not the best) of any hotel i have stayed in

room everyday of our stay, not having soap and lotion replenished everyday of our stay, expensive room

is full of imagination and healthy the pool deck on 7th floor is cool and the huge brand new gym is amazing

clean comfortable rooms. kids enjoyed the large connect 4!!

was so small for 5 ppl, i booked almost a year ahead and specified for 3 kids and 2 adults, i m sure you could

to the beach, comfortable fits 2 adults and three kids just fine, very nice staff

room was very neat and clean.great cable and wifi.

very confortable room and well located. there is even a parking

the hotel also has adults and kids bikes to hire complimentary to guests, we hired the bikes for a day going

kids were welcomed being able to swim at anytime

the sofa bed wasn t comfortable for kids.

even the kids enjoyed their stay

the pool and large jacuzzi

it was overcrowded with kids

many hotels offer, lots of fun for families, kids swim watch movie and parents relax with glass of wine

kids. i wish there weren't so many or that there's a part of the hotel designated for them.

were unsupervised kids splashing and playing in the hot tub

homeless people around i didn t feel safe walking alone and specially with my kids that s the one thing i

was just great - clean, quiet, perfect location - amazing hotel while travelling with kids

we hired bikes right out the front and the kids loved the beach activities

s hard but families with young children should be reminded that others are trying to relax when kids are

traveling with four kids so that is not always the case

great to stay with kids

we needed a room, because we came ealry in the morning with 2 little kids

we chose a suite to have space for our two kids and it worked really well

we got upgraded to the bungalows next to the pools and the kids and i had an amazing relaxing stay

i just wish my wife and kids had been with me and then it would have been truly perfect

they even thought to send milk and cookies for our kids

property is excellent for kids as i could be in my room and look at the pool in the courtyard

nice hotel. nice staff. my kids loved the place.

good size room for a family with young kids

no a/c at the rooms, only ventilators. pool is small and good for little kids

very nice apartment with kitchen, very comfortable with kids

close to the beach (although i would pick a different hotel closer to the water if i had kids with me and planned

we were traveling with our toddler and they had a treasure chest for kids so she was able to pick out a toy to

there was no fridge to use for the kids.

we enjoyed family time in the city with our adult kids for a celebration

famous penthouse restaurant has a limited menu, nothing really suitable for kids

hotel can be very noisy - the walls seem very thin (got woken up at 6am to kids staying in the room next door

no gym or pool

the kitchens are poorly poorly stocked

bad wifi

lighting is atmospheric but a bit too dim to be functional (for reading print or cooking in kitchen)

toilet in kids room had to be fixed three times.

great for kids and families

recommend it to couples or families with grown up kids

pool area was great, clean and quiet

kitchen, balcony off bedroom was ridiculous

i was travelling with 3 kids. perfect

especially noticeable when a family with kids next door

made hot chocolate for my kids too

also being on 20th street - it's a fair distance from the shops and beach for those with kids

the room service is delicious though it took quite awhile for it to be sent over

my kids were exhausted and it was a little alien to us the neighbourhood so my kids were scared

were spa like

we had a queen suite and stayed for 3 nights in june - and it was just perfect (a lounge/kitchen dining & large

position is 1 minute from venice beach and breakfast is delicious at a nearby bakery

was brilliantly ant and really made for a relaxing enviroment futher more the complimentary breakfast was chefs

it would be ideal to have a little kitchenette

the parking lot is small

the decor, the white walls and the intricate designs, the vibrant energy, the location, free parking, the staff

), great location, complimentary parking (enough for all guests even if all rooms are sold out

is an older property which could be updated, particularly the kitchen

kids super amused

the room is small but goo enough fit with 1 adult and 2 small kids

i felt it was very overpriced the room was small for 2 adults and 2 kids. no ocean view.

the workers is very nice anything i needed they were on point my kids love it

ppl across the hall were insaaaane with the kids till 5 am the last night and the elevator didnt work for a few

friendly and free off-street parking

while it is little pricy, it is actually the best value for money, for it has a) free parking and b) breakfast

free parking too

free and convenient parking lot

there is parking, the space is limited and you may not get a spot, especially if other guests failed do not

they also allowed us to come back to use the wifi, bathroom etc after we checked out which was great when we

wifi didn t work.

open wiring, very old and unclean kitchen no information on the entrance, how you get into the hotel

everything was exceptional proximity to beach, excitement, good wifi, food options, secure building and parking

tv didn't work fireplace didn't work no instructions on how to use the appliances

with food within walking distance, having a door code on the app also made me feel safe having my kids along

we have stayed 3 days as family with 2 teenage kids and room size was really good to accommodate us with large

young kids talking and slamming doors after midnight

i travelled with 3 kids and the room we were given had bunk beds which they all loved.

great location ! stylish decor and bunk beds for kids

we loved the rooftop bar and our kids loved being so close to the basketball courts

the foyer gets very busy in the evening with people waiting to go up so probably not a hotel for kids

the guys at the bar on the rooftop were also the best -- friendly to the kids, helpful, and offered great

the hotel isn't designed for kids -- altho the rooftop bar was friendly to us -- we had to leave at sunset

no pillows, no proper blankets, we had to take some from our double bed in the other room, so our kids could

a little wore but it was clean and served our purpose and a great price for the 3 adults and two kids

is clean.very confort them my kids love it

cleaning staff super friendly also with our kids

we liked having a separate room from the kids

the kids were super impressed

kids loved the ping pong tables

the kids loved the hot tub

facilities, especially the pool and hot tub which the kids loved

the chilled out atmosphere & kids loved the wee pool & ping pong tables

pier and beyond, and lots of cycle lanes around the whole area so felt safe on the roads with kids

it was loud. many of the guests were loud and unruly, and it wasn t just the kids!

me and my husband went into pool area just for kids to be running back and forth from pool to jacuzzi splashing

great gym if you want to get a workout in and a nice bar/restaurant area in the lobby for work or some

pool req room and on site restaurant all exceeded expectations

for example, with laundry i had to deliver it and pick it up at the front desk

the sofa bed is thin and not very comfortable. ok for kids though.

very kids-friendly and pet-friendly

it is right across the street from mother s beach, so good for people with kids. it was clean.

really good clean room, good room service, perfect location

the sofa bed is thin and not very comfortable. ok for kids though.

better than expected with a small kitchen with micro and fridge

nice kitchenette butno silverware or plates

ample parking

wifi was surprisingly good, kitchenette with microwave and small fridge was a nice addition, and

the rooms were always cleaned up, the small kitchen made us feel very comfortable and like home in a great

was quiet felt very safe and bed was very comfy, kids loved the giant tub and the private patio

was quiet felt very safe and bed was very comfy, kids loved the giant tub and the private patio

parking is tight. only one way in, one way out to busy street.

as a guest, you are given a menu with breakfast options that will be delivered to your door at your chosen time

service was exceptional - from friendly check-in to support with our breakfast, parking, and bags

all very pleasant and staff really nice specially with our kids

but the restaurant was doing a change over at the time kids were hungry

was excellent ; location was very good; pool and gym were excellent; bar was very nice; patio dining tables were

pool, gym, restaurant

there should be a bit more instructions as to which floor the facilities like the gym and spa are around the

our 2 kids slept great

hotel is very clean, and loved that the lobby has kids games laid out for free

room was next to the breakfast area, which was very noisy at 7am, you can hear kids running in the hallway

i m traveling alone with my two young kids and didn t feel very safe when i pulled up

breakfast was amazing

staff, inclusive breakfast, marina location, cleanliness, bar area was nice.

very well maintained. very comfortable with kitchen and sitting area. breakfast was very good

breakfast was good , they have variety each day

we stayed in a studio which had lots of space for 2 persons with a sofa and a small kitchen

fitness center was a disaster

nice fitness and pool

very good quality restaurant in hotel is good guy on the reception wasn’t friendly, but he did early check in

nice view, big room and bath. big tv screen. nice gym and pool.

pool restaurant gym laundry all very good

outdoor pool is nice and also the bar area

kids loved the pool

pools can get dominated by small kids

it was clean, staff was friendly. pool was heated, kids loved it!

parents if you can t control your kids on a vacation in a hotel where there are other guests staying and

this place is a hidden gem and we are looking forward to spending a few days here without the kids for our next

the staff were great, especially with my kids.

we were traveling with kids under 6 and after a long flight (6 hours) all we wanted was sleep

very close to ucla, we were sending our kids to college and the hotel was right in the westwood neighborhood,

i even emailed the hotel prior to arrival to check if the sofabed would be suitable for 2 kids

we told it s not our rooms , for other guests , went down to reception, to be told that our kids will be on

ideal for people visiting kids at ucla

wifi needs upgrading

the wifi service is really bad.

laundry entrance outside down alley.

free parking free breakfast good location

food was lovely in the restaurant and they were very child friendly great kids menu

room service was great.

it's conveniently located. the staff is exceptional. the room service food is decent.

hotel charged $250 per staying per pet, which was not outlined in the booking process. scam

might not be as good for small kids

close to our kids

drawbacks are 1) no elevator, so this is not an appropriate place to stay if you have very young kids or use a

it's a good choice for adults or families with older kids who are able to appreciate the small, quiet atmosphere

comfortable bed, darling garden, unique decor, morning breakfast, great front desk staff.

breakfast, no parking, no late check out, roaches out front on sidewalk, room was as tiny as can be, massive

any extra were high: tip-free restaurant with an additional 15 % discount: $250 for 2 adults, 2 kids

the kids liked the fresh apples at the gym

food / view from the 17th floor, but one of rhe room we took for kids was not cleaned for one day, towels not

glass and invades personal privacy and causes embarrassment if you are traveling with family or kids

disappointment as we'd partly chosen this hotel because we wanted to go swimming with our young kids

kids loved the game room and i loved the wine hour from 5-6 with the wine and appetizers and the

almost got trampled to death by a cohort of kids in the lobby having a mat mitzvah and nobody care nor did

room service

convenient location to ucla, where i was visiting, coffee in the morning complementary. nice gym

on the website it could say that there are not spa tubs in every suit so i know to ask

conveniently located, street parking, pool and bar, friendly staff

room service was quick & courteous

great decor. wonderful room, good morning coffee and pastries, lovely pool

the amenities made things so much easier and fun, stk, room service, the gym were a plus

breakfast was a little over priced

no bath for small kids.

no kids menu

inside ucla and very convenient for parents like me who accompany their kids move in to university s campus

it's been on our list since my kids began college at ucla

poor wifi

was bad we arrived hour early driving 400 miles with kids and i was told they will charge 100 dollar extra to

then told us the air was broken, and asked us if we wanted to move rooms at midnight when my kids were already

the breakfast is disappointing

news channel in breakfast room could not be changed (communist news network in full fake news mode)

nice room good breakfast less noisy than nearby hotel with respect to the road friendly staff

wifi signal was nearly non-existent in the rooms

smelled terrible, hallways were hot and muggy, gym was closed, the cafe/coffee bar was grossly understaffed

smelled terrible, hallways were hot and muggy, gym was closed, the cafe/coffee bar was grossly understaffed

could use an upgrade in some respects - a swimming pool - upgrade of the rooms

the room is big. the gym is good. there is a grocery store right across the street. very nice.

pool it s super cool being on the roof but it april is was far too cold even though it is said to

did not have breakfast., had lunch and it was good!

breakfast expensive for what it was

the bar and lounge area in the main lobby is frequented by a lot of younger hip los angeles peeps

best thing about this hotel is the gym it s a full-size gym with many new machines

beautiful modern with full kitchen. staff was very nice, location was good. beautiful pool area

the gym

hotel has a lovely welcome area, beautiful courtyard pool, and a unique escher-esque wing with a jacuzzi

the wifi is not secure so it feel uncomfortable to use it for private communications

beautiful pool

a beautiful bar and restaurant downstairs

i had room service, which was fine, and also one meal in the restaurant--the pasta

bar was a little too hopping with beautiful people, with live jazz music, to just relax in after

i would have liked a bar or light meals available on site

room service wasn't good.

the bar and restaurant downstairs was excellent - the staff very friendly

room service breakfast was very good

wish the bar was open.

lovely buzzy atmosphere in the bar and courtyard

the pali hotel is also pet friendly with a skilled valet staff

humid , dark rooms and no kids friendly visitors

it was our anniversary- chocolate covered strawberries and sparkling wine, upgraded room, rose petals on the

the wifi could be better

the gym could be better

the swimming pool could have been a bit warmer

the concierge went out of their way to make any request happen and the whole team treated our kids super well

only 45 guest in the entire place and stuck me next to a family with screaming kids that slammed the room door

happy hour in the bar overlooking the downtown sunset very enjoyable

only 45 guest in the entire place and stuck me next to a family with screaming kids that slammed the room door

the staff was not only congenial, but they introduced me to a lot of the features as the salon, gym, etc

the beds are crazy comfortable, we shared a suite with our kids and everyone had their own bathroom

the crowd got a little rowdy for the little kids to be around

had a false fire alarm in the middle of the night and we took our kids out of the bed and the sound of it still

good with kids for longer stays

super convenient location right next to a ralphs to get some snacks and a cheap lunch for the kids

with children and the hotel is maybe a tad too lavish for kids to fully appreciate, although the staff made them

we had a spa massage it was so good and relaxing

i love the banana stuffed french toasts in the room service menu

gym could be larger

breakfast quality is not at the standard of the hotel

there needs to be some time with no kids at these rates

room service which we rarely do was very nice at 145 am ( we had skipped dinner ) we do miss the

staff in the pool

by the pool another couple had brought their wild cat on leash just to chill

the lobby always smelt like food and the laundry takes a long time

and you had to get ice from the bar if it was open or the front desk

kinda wished that monday s had the bar open

of breakfast,expensive parking , slow wifi, aged furnitures ,air conditioning and room

but small gym, very clean and well equipped for an efficient workout

we enjoyed evenings at the bar with the lovely bar staff

bed was comfortable and clean..loved the jacuzzi and the kids loved the pool

that i can't open the first time the battery was dead, then they let me in the hallway whit my kids for more

t like that there was a bar right at the main entrance, forcing me to walk by with my young kids

as we were traveling with kids, having access to a microwave was essential, so this was inconvenient

once the kids woke up fully at 5:00, we went to switch rooms

no cot was available and 1 of our kids had to sleep on the floor

hotel, but very thin walls, and unfortunately had a screaming kids next to me which kept me up all night and

chef therefore no room service or food at bar/restaurant

location is great, comfortable beds, spacious rooms, great service, bar and restaurant on site

i did kindly complain the next day about the poor room service and asked if they could comp my parking ($50)

kids are welcome sure but that s about it

the only thing i didn't like was that the pool bar and pool close to early.

i was told) but it should be used more often, for example they should open up an afternoon bar or a lounge area

the downstairs lobby area and bar were sophisticated and comfortable

gym not great, wish it had a peloton bike like the avalon.

she went above and beyond to help me and my kids

card was over charged for my stay but the staff made up for it and made me and my kids

good price, friendly staff and kids love their watermelon complementary drink in the

having that, i was staying with my kids, so the king s bed was not an option

kids running around in the hallways.

and don t miss the rooftop bar and pool

the pool on top was amazing both for swimming and watching sunsets

there were a lot of amenities - like several restaurants in the hotel, a roof top pool and a supermarket

marcus at the bar was exceptional. helpful with local tips & made some beautiful cocktails.

we needed more towels and wanted to order room service

when my husband went down with the kids to get breakfast around 10-1030a they were closed

breakfast was perfect for the kids

room my kids and i were given had antique furnitures

lobby, the bar and restaurant and immediate neighbors - scruffy residents should have priority as guests on

gym could have been bigger and better equipped

the breakfast is free for all of us and to my surprise they wanted to make me pay $18 for my kids parking

there is no microwave in the bedroom. it helps a lot when you are traveling with kids.

the pool was nice, the room had a nice view, the location is second to none

no late night room service.

the breakfast

took me forever to warm up leftover food for my kids

the facilities and the location, also breakfast was good and free for kids under 12.

kids, older folks, college students, international folk

they also says breakfast is included for 2 adults + 2 kids in their

we stay there is always a lot of kids at the pool so i m never able to enjoy

kids in the pool drive me nuts when their shrill screams echo off the concrete walls and the

didn t seem to be a location for kids. pool was very cold.

pool could get busy and room service was average

location, helpful staff, nice rooms, fast room service

i like the early check in.

they even provided special welcome amenities for our kids, which made them feel like vips from the start

check-in which made the room far more comfortable as my husband and i were traveling with our two kids

mattress on the sofa bed wasn't the best, the kids said they could feel the metal underneath

breakfast is a must

location, breakfast, comfy beds, staff, gym
