Top Santa Monica Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place LAX/Century Blvd

Hyatt Place LAX/Century Blvd

8/10 Good
"The hotel was very quiet, clean & room was spacious. My only complaint was that we arrived before check-in time at the end of a cruise and my sister-in-law was ill so we requested early check-in . They said no rooms would be ready before 1pm which we understood. It was great that she was able to get in early but my complaint is that the hotel changed her $50! I have traveled a lot of places & never been charged extra for early check-in! I was especially upset because the only reason we needed it was that my sister-in-law was ill and was unable to go on our excursion."
