    The rooms were very nice and clean. The breakfast was our 3-region tour by far the best !!! You can also borrow bicycles free of charge and use the shuttle. The staff was very friendly. We really can only recommend the hotel.

    The room offered a comfortable workspace, and I appreciated the cleanliness and modern design. The complimentary breakfast included a variety of artisan breads and fresh fruits. The outdoor patio provided a relaxing environment, perfect for informal meetings.

    Limited dinner options.

    Immaculately clean rooms on the top level, Wi-Fi. Location - great next to quiet neighborhood-Tartines bakery, Santa Monica Pier and the Promeade and the restaurant. Also, in a quiet area of Santa Monica;)))

    Location: the hotel was right by hospitals, the lounge/common areas, and southern California. Popped in House of Billiards for shots before sleep, it was not very far from the venue. The food was great, drinks were hot.

    On the evening of arrival, there was a small reception in the lobby with drinks and snacks, which we liked very much.

    The typical American breakfast.

    The Ambrose provided us with a relaxing environment in which to unwind after a long flight from Australia and before tackling the travails of a cross-US flight. All staff were friendly and professional and we appreciated the environmental sustainability practices there. We appreciated the fruit and yoghurt for a healthy breakfast and the bagels were good when we wanted a little decadence. We also very much appreciated the free shuttle to and from downtown.

    There were rather too many high-sugar high-fat pastries on offer to be able to construct a healthy breakfast.

    complimentary tesla rides
    spacious clean room
    friendly service
    lack of breakfast variety

    We had such a great time staying here with friends! The service was great, and we loved the complimentary Tesla rides and the free bike rentals. We visited the beach and the Santa Monica Pier, both awesome. The room was super spacious and clean.

    We did find the breakfast selection a bit lacking. It wasn't a full-scale offering.

    Well-mannered staff. Huge balcony. Own parking. Free trip on a short distance. Comfortable location: not close to noisy roads, but 15 minute walk to the Promenade with stores and reataurants.

    No spare room for the breakfast - in fact breakfast in the lobby.

    I loved the location, the dark wood furniture w/ clean lines, and the spa like comfort of the rooms. Much better than staying in a stark cold room at a Marriott or Hilton.

    Would have liked a better selection of healthy snacks in Honor Bar and more healthy choices on 24 hour menu.
