San Gabriel Valley Adults Only Holidays

Would stay again

Amazing location, beautiful views of the ocean, plenty of green landscape m, trees, and relaxation spots for winding down. Excellent food located on property, and staff were all friendly and helpful. The bathroom could use an update, but the positive ls far outweigh the bathroom decor. We will be back at the Fairmont SM.

Cleanliness needs to be focused

This was the best guest experience I have ever had!! The hotel, staff, room was incredible...I felt like a VIP. Will definitely be staying there again.

We stayed at The Aster while attending a show at the Pantages, and the location couldn't have been more convenient. The hotel was very clean, and our suite was spacious, but several aspects of the stay were disappointing. Upon arrival, we were asked for our full name three separate times—by the valet, front-door security, and the front desk—this felt excessive and unnecessarily repetitive. The front desk was efficient but not particularly welcoming; there was no effort to engage with us about our stay, plans, or whether we needed anything. While the room itself was large and spotless, the view was unfortunate, looking directly onto a rooftop dominated by a concrete wall, mechanical equipment, and a service stairway. A few basic details were also overlooked. There was no bottle opener in the room, and the bathroom shower featured a partial glass enclosure that allowed water to escape onto the floor after every use. The robes provided were small for anyone with a larger frame, and the bed was one of the least comfortable hotel beds I've experienced—extremely firm and noticeably worn. The biggest issue, however, was noise. Room 414 is directly below the fifth-floor kitchen, and we could hear footsteps, rolling carts, doors opening and closing, and other servicactivity throughout our stay. Nearby laundry facilities added even more noise, and the service stairway outside was active until 3am. Food was fine, but nothing memorable.

The room was very clean and updated. Nice and quiet. The only issue was the a/c unit cutting on and off and didn’t cool the room as much as I prefer.

This was a nice boutique hotel on the outskirts of DT LA. It was conveniently located within walking distance to Grand Central Market. The hotel was clean and felt safe, although I wouldn't hang out around the neighborhood alone at night. The biggest inconvenience is that it is DOWNHILL from Central Downtown so while it looks to be close as the crow flies, if you think you're close to DT, be prepared for a hike, especially with luggage. I had to call a car to get to my destination because I wasn't going to hike uphill lugging my suitcase with me. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay.
