This is a lovely small hotel near UCLA Medical Center in St. John’s Hospital. It is not in the center of the dining or shopping scene for Santa Monica, but is an easy Uber ride away if that’s where you were going. They do have nice restaurant delivery options and there’s a beautiful bakery across the street for breakfast and a light lunch. if you are visiting Santa Monica because of a friend or relative at the medical center, there is a medical center rate at the hotel as well. While I couldn’t participate in the evening Wine hours because of my schedule it’s a wonderful amenity that I saw many people taking advantage of . I’d like to thank Brandon and Nick for being so kind during my long visit.
