Breakfast was fresh and portions generous. The hotel is very quiet . The only complaint is about the hazardous shower. The spray head is very high. . There are no grab bars and no non slip pad in the tub. It’s slippery for any age person. At least place a rubber mat. At best install a hand held shower head.

Beautiful hotel, comfortable beds, walkable location, and very clean which is the criteria I care about. They offer wonderful services like free bike rentals or a Tesla transportation system within a certain radius ( didn’t utilize since we had our car). I would definitely stay here again when I’m in the LA area.
