Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Dining options are limited on site — The only food service mentioned is the continental breakfast; there's no restaurant or room service for other meals. Guests have to go out for lunch or dinner, though several nearby restaurants are noted.
- Not a full-service location — Some might find the hotel a bit removed from central LA attractions — it's in San Pedro, so expect to drive or use public transport for most sightseeing. The location is a highlight for cruise travellers, but less so for tourists wanting to be in the thick of the city.
- Check-in window closes at midnight — If your flight or drive arrives late, you'll need to plan around the 23:59 check-in deadline. The 24-hour reception may help, but official check-in hours are specific.
- No pets allowed — The hotel is strictly non-smoking and pets are not permitted, so those travelling with animals will need to look elsewhere.
