My stay at Oceana Santa Monica was a mix of luxury and some frustrations. The rooms are spacious and beautifully renovated, and the location is perfect for beach access and local dining. However, the service was inconsistent, particularly with the slow responses to requests and concerns about safety for my kids. Overall, while the experience had its highlights, it didn't fully meet the high expectations set by its five-star label.
