Such a cute hotel that really paid attention to the little details! We really enjoyed our short time there. The rooftop area is awesome and a great place to get a drink, good food and great view of the ocean and pier. The location is walkable to about everything core to Malibu (Nobu, the pier).

My room was too cold, the heater was too difficult to use BUT the food made up for freezing. Hats off to the chef[s] for spectacular plating and perfect toast.
