My stay at the hotel was a delightful experience, with exceptional customer service and a beautiful beachside location. The rooms were luxurious and well-appointed, making them worth the price. However, some aspects of the service fell short during peak times, leading to a frustrating dining experience. Overall, the hotel offers a top-notch beachfront experience but could improve on service consistency.

I had a wonderful time at this hotel! The location is unbeatable, right by the beach and the vibrant boardwalk. They offer great entertainment along with delicious food and drinks in the lobby. I always felt welcomed by the friendly staff. However, some areas in the hotel could use a bit of freshening up, and the dining options were not up to the level expected for the price. Overall, it’s a great place to experience Santa Monica!

I had an amazing stay at this hotel, right on the beautiful Santa Monica beach. The rooms were spacious and offered great ocean views, making it a luxurious experience. The staff was incredibly attentive, which made a significant difference in my overall experience. However, I did notice that the restaurant service could use some improvement. The hotel is conveniently located, with easy access to various dining options and attractions nearby, making it a great choice for both relaxation and exploration.

My stay at Shutters was quite the memorable experience, with exceptional staff who truly went out of their way to accommodate us. However, it's a shame that the beach area in front was not well maintained, detracting from the overall enjoyment. The atmosphere around the hotel had its ups and downs, particularly regarding safety and cleanliness. While the pool area was lovely, it did get crowded, so arriving early is advisable.

The rooms felt cramped and had a damp feel, likely due to the air conditioning not working effectively. For the price, I expected a more spacious and well-maintained accommodation.

Our stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While the staff was incredibly warm and accommodating, the surroundings left much to be desired. The location didn’t feel very appealing, especially with the view overlooking a parking lot. However, the dining experience was great, and we really enjoyed the onsite restaurant. Overall, I'd say it’s a mixed bag—definitely some charming aspects, but not without its flaws.
