Loved this place. Close to lots of cute shops and restaurants. Excellent lounge and diner in house. Quaint quiet pool area, staff super friendly. Love all the Hollywood memorabilia. I'd 100% stay here again. Only thing I'd say it needs is a set of weights in the fitness center and a water machine in there.
