โI stayed at the Gjelina hotel over a weekend to get some intense work done away from the distractions of home. The staff were incredibly helpful, shoutout to Elliot especially. Lots of places to sit and hang out (or work) like the rooftop terrace, the courtyard, and even the lobby. Great to have Ocean Front Walk right there for high energy breaks and walks. The room was surprisingly quiet for one block from the beach.โ
โIt is very unpleasant to stay here. Considering the price, it isn't valuable to stay in. They charged many different taxes in addition the hotel charged $40 per night for the amenities although we didn't used any amenities. The room wasn't spacious. The layout was uncomfortable.While we stayed the hotel there was their union strike for days from 7am to 8pm. It was unbearably noisy. โ
โIn a luxurious accommodation, thanks to the exceptionally friendly staff, the last day of the vacation was truly fantastic. Especially, the bicycle tour along the beach is a memory I will cherish for a lifetime. Thank you.โ
โGreat little motel, so cute and great location. Staff was very friendly and helpful, room was clean and had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again. โ
"I clearly left my clothes in the closet before checking out of this hotel. I contacted the hotel immediately after checkout, yet they kept claiming they had never seen anything and that nothing was found. I know exactly where I left my belongings, but the hotel denied everything and took no responsibility whatsoever.
When I complained in person at the lobby, they told me, "We'll follow up. If we find it, we'll contact you. If not, we'll consider compensation." But once I left LA, I sent multiple emailsโwhich they read but never replied to for days.
What made it worse was that while I was seriously explaining the situation, some staff nearby were smirking and laughing, as if it was a joke. It was disrespectful and completely unprofessional.
Thereโs a strong possibility that a housekeeper stole my belongings, yet the hotel conducted no real investigation, gave no updates, and offered no resolution. They just kept saying things like โWe understandโ and โWeโll do our bestโโbut did absolutely nothing.
Theft, zero accountability, and staff who mock customersโeasily the worst hotel experience of my life. Stay far away from this place."
"I honestly donโt understand why this hotel is rated as 4-star. Itโs a run-down building which doesnโt have any proper amenities..
This hotel deserves 2.5 stars. "
