California is a fertile, peaceful place where you’ll find a near-equal balance of vineyards and deserts, beaches and mountains, hippies and traditionalists. Catch an epic wave in Big Sur or swirl a glass in Napa Valley. Be dazzled by the Joshua Tree night sky or just star-gaze in Hollywood. Swish down the slopes of a Tahoe ski resort, or cruise across the Golden Gate Bridge with the top down and the music blasting. Above all, don’t forget to soak up some Golden State sunshine.

I stay here whenever I have a morning flight out of SFO. I've never had a bad experience. The staff are always polite and welcoming when I check in. I wish the restaurant was a little less fancy and had vegetarian food, so that's a minus, but the cafe/store is open 24 hours, and honestly that's what i really care about—I can get a yogurt parfait at 4am before I head into the terminal for my flight. The decor here is rich and understated. Lots of dark woods. Everything feels solid. Beds are comfortable, views are fine, taking into account that this is right at the airport, so that's what you're going to see. Despite being right on the airport, the noise is muted. I did hear some machine noises at night, but they were not loud, and didn't disturb my sleep. I think it was probably the HVAC. It's reasonably priced for what it is. I would consider it a splurge if I were traveling for personal reasons. 10/10, will stay again.

We are a family-owned historic boutique pension-style hotel located in North Beach, one of San Francisco's oldest and most popular tourist destinations, and only a few blocks from Fisherman's Wharf. Built in 1906, our hotel maintains an atmosphere of Old-World charm and ambiance with specially selected antique furnishings - no two rooms are alike. The walls of the hotel are filled with a collection of memorabilia and history. Our style is simplicity and sanctuary - there are no room telephones, no televisions, and on the order of European pensions, shared baths which are meticulously cleaned daily, and are private when in use, but for all guests to use. Our rooms are cozy and small, our prices are proportional. Our staff is available while our Front Desk is open to help you find anything your heart desires. A truly unique, non-standardized hotel experience.
Like many others in the world, our honeymoon booked for July 2020 from Australia to the US was cancelled due to COVID-19. I have contacted this company for a refund via telephone, countless emails and via social media and NOT ONCE have I received a response. Whilst I understand the huge impact this time has had on businesses, we have had our own financial difficulties as well. Very disappointed in this business and I would not recommend booking.

Let your California dreams flourish at vibrant V Palm Springs, a modern oasis at the foothills of the San Jacinto mountains. Lounge at the poolside cabanas, encircled by luscious palm trees, and treat yourself to a refreshing cocktail from Elixir. Dip your feet in the crystal-clear pool while soaking in the exciting atmosphere. In the mood to explore? Venture out to Palm Canyon Drive and make your way through mid-century modern boutiques, welcoming pubs, and colorful art galleries. As evening falls, sip on a cold beer while dining al fresco at GiGi’s (we also recommend the tacos at breakfast time). Watch the sunset from your cozy space and plan out your adventures for tomorrow.
Great for people wanting to party. Live DJ at the pool. Poolside bar. Not a place for a quiet getaway. You can here the music inside your room. Room floor needed cleaning and food prices were too high.

I happened to come across this property and really enjoyed my stay. It is easy to access and just a few minutes from the airport and quite close to downtown Culver City. The indoor courtyard is lovely (as shown on the photographs). The room is comfortable--more for one person than two--with a spacious desk, comfortable bed, nice bathroom. The lights, blinds, fans/AC are all controlled from a panel for ease and practicality, although there are also switches in the room. The Wi-Fi was superb. Breakfast is light but well staged. I really enjoyed the set up, convenience, and decour of this hotel. I strongly recommend it.

The hotel was fabulous and great value for money. Lois at check in made us feel extremely welcome as did Nelson and the rest of the staff. The rooms are tasteful with large tv screens, modern furniture, hairdryers etc. The pool area is clean and has some really lovely chilled music playing. We'd highly recommend staying here. Thanks L3.

Originally built in the months following the great earthquake of 1906, the hotel saw a complete renovation in 2013-2014. During the project, we had one goal: create an atmosphere with you, our guest, in mind. Where you might find a bit of sanctuary from a day busy with meetings or just out seeing the sights. A place to relax and recharge. From our lounge areas, patio and great, comfortable beds to our complimentary continental breakfast, all are just some of the thoughtful details to enhance the experience of your stay. At Nineteen 06 Mission we proudly provide our Guests with 100% GREEN Terra Nova toiletry items, complimentary eco-friendly slippers, and a great continental breakfast to kick start the morning. Our single person Luxury Showers might be just down the hall but wait until you try them. We think you are ready for something a little different, something a little special. Welcome to both!
Really good value- good size room, big showers, heaps of towels, shampoo, body wash on offer. We appreciated the tea and coffee stations and the chap on the desk was super friendly, with great recommendations and really accommodating of us leaving our bags, helping us print boarding pass out etc- he's a real gem and totally made our stay.

Terrific new hotel, large rooms, great breakfast. Very modern and has a lovely, friendly staff. Tip: to go up the elevator, press which for you want on the iPad and it will tell you which elevator to take.

Discover LA during your stay at Venice Suites, featuring spacious suites near Santa Monica with full kitchens that are perfect for extended stay lodging.
Guest parking is expensive at $20 a day/night and inconveniently located several blocks from the hotel. You pull into a narrow alleyway and put on your hazard lights to unload, then you have to go park your car several streets away in a garage (unless you can find street parking-good luck with that!) It's about a 10 to 15 minute walk, not the five they tell you. The building itself is funky, old carpeting in hallways, with an ancient elevator. However the rooms are fine, clean. Dishes and glasses were left in the dishwasher, rather than put away in the cabinets. For our "partial" ocean view room (east of the stairway), you had to crane your neck around the corner to see a smidge of water. The windows faced other building windows. The rooftop lounge area does not look as nicely staged as this photo shows. Neighborhood is sketchy, lots of people hanging around, and can be noisy certain times of the day. Quiet in morning and at night for the most part. Would I stay here again? No.
