Amazing little place! Stayed here with my boyfriend for one night before flying out of LAX. Rooms are cute. Great views and right next to a cute walkable strip. Staff were very kind and found me to make sure everything was right with parking. Owner was on call when I needed him early in the morning. Absolute five stars!! Would stay again!

Hermosa Beach Stay

Quirky accommodations in a fantastic location. Historic building that’s under continuing renovation/improvement. Room was super clean, check in and access processes are unique- if you’re comfortable with atypical accommodations this is a great value.

Roulette.

The initial room we were placed in was not to an acceptable standard at all. Terrible beds and bedding and poor HVAC, and the room was not equipped as shown in the pictures. The day we received the room I felt was advertised. I asked for improved bedding and it was provided. No cold water in room except for the shower plumbing. Hotel's great location is offset by the age of hotel. My stay varied from terrible to nice. Seems room assignment can be roulette. Hardest review of a room I've done.

The Vurp is a totally unique property with interesting history and friendly staff. Be aware that this is a historic property with vintage fixtures (original tub, for example) so if you want a luxury bathroom, this is not the place for you. However, our large studio room was recently renovated with fresh paint, furnishings, and linens. We found it very comfortable. The experience was totally charming and the location is unbeatable—right on the Strand and walkable to everything you need. We did have a bit of trouble finding the place but a call to our host sorted it out very quickly. Parking is a little tricky but we will definitely return.

Hotel is such a unique gem. Owner is trying to preserve the historical feel while updating interior. While the updates seem to be taking some time, the accommodations are CLEAN. Staff is so friendly. Location can not be beat.

Great location

The spot was right on the beach and ownership is great. The communication was awesome and my room was ready when I got there. Only negative is I could hear everything in the hallway and wasn’t able to rest well. I recommend putting a towel at the bottom of the door andbringing earplugs.

Super friendly and nice staff

Extremely accommodating, helping to look for a lost item after we left. They are upgrading the rooms and still needs some work in the bathroom, but otherwise super comfortable and great value. Parking was no problem.
