First thing is no one thought to tell us there were construction works. According to Michael a director of the hotel it was refurbishment!!!!! Which not as bad. What ever you want to call it there was drilling. Dry walling. New walls. Areas taken off the swimming pool area for the new building. Blocked off access areas. Blocked off pool areas. Dry walking. Workmen on site the whole time we were there. There was no lounge. No dining room. No more than 15 chairs around the pool for 165 rooms at any one time. all due the work. This hotel does not provide luxury even if everything was in order. How Expedia can class this 4 star I’m not sure. Maybe it’s the position but the position though good it’s very noisy especially in the on weekends. To say we were disappointed is an understatement. When booking anything these days the booking sites and trip advisor are what a client relies on. I would not recommend to anyone. Possible not Expedia either As some compensation my party was awarded a room with a sea view as opposed to our original room which was facing the back of a restaurant where the staff swore, exposed their bottom and “smoked”. We had a 6 year old with us!!!!! I was also not charged resort fee. To charge a resort fee in a hotel having construction around the only resort part of the hotel verges on fraud. We were given a food allowance if $60 a day for three people. I was told they would refund my whole stay minus the night we had stayed there I presume and I could

Very convenient to Santa Monica Beach. Rooms are clean and staffs are nice. But Ocean Ave is very noisy with people voices and loud cars passing by even pass 1am. Plus the pool and hot tube are being serviced beginning on the 2nd morning of our stay. My sons were disapponted. Power washing was loud early morning.

Horrible noisy construction directly under our room. Unfulfilled room service orders due to issues with the kitchen. Elevators had constant issues and routinely didn’t work. Avoid the Shore Hotel.
