“Oceana Santa Monica's plush stays, dissent”

Oceana Santa Monica, LXR Hotels & Resorts is a beautiful Santa Monica hotel right across from the water — spacious incredibly-comfortable rooms with high-quality linens and plush carpets, daily cleaning, delicious in-room dining, a well-decorated property, and superb kind staff; one guest compared the value to a Four Seasons and wanted to keep it secret. Two severe dissents: loud noise with a promised sea view that wasn't delivered — a rate mismatch; and no service — a poorly-skilled front desk below three-star level, night-long leak sounds and bad insulation. A bathtub was wished for.

Rooms
Spacious, plush rooms; a view mismatch once.
Service
Superb mostly; a no-service dissent exists.
Location
Across the street from the Pacific water.
Food
Delicious in-room dining for the guests.
Cleanliness
Daily cleaning kept rooms fresh inside.
Value
A Four Seasons comparable value per one guest.
