"You are paying for the location and, if you opt for it, the ocean view. Otherwise, a very plane jane room which would cost 1/4-1/3 in another other location. add $33/day for valet parking."

"The beach of course"

"Gorgeous panoramic views; multiple trail heads close."

"Good Southbay location. Great balcony views. Peets coffee (lobby): Coffee Bean, Starbucks, multiple restaurants and Del Amo mall all walking distance. Great beaches are about 2 miles to the west."

"Coffee in all it's various forms and varieties, smoothies, baked goods"

"The loop trail to Inspiration Point is great for beginners: 2 miles, very even (no ankle twisting likely), easy grade, many places to stop and take a picture or rest on a clean bench, panoramic views"
