The Wave Hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms, with some featuring laminate floors, great lighting, and big bathtubs. Daily room service is provided. Its location is praised for proximity to Manhattan Beach. The hotel has a small, clean pool with towels available and offers a solid breakfast, though some find it limited while noting the waffles are great. There are several noted downsides. Parking is available at an extra cost, though street parking is an option. Some bathrooms have insufficient water pressure and flow, and rooms lack microwaves. The large iron beds can be loud if bumped. Customer service receives mixed feedback, described as both very helpful and professional, but also stingy with amenities like towels, for which there can be an extra charge. Early check-in or late check-out incurs an hourly fee. Some room features, like phones and sockets, may not work properly. Overall, many guests found their stay better than expected and would return, feeling they got what they paid for, while others were disappointed and would not come back.
Had the king suite room for 7 nights, really nice room, enjoyed the big bath tub a lot! Room service came everyday and cleaned up the room which was nice. Only downside is you have to pay for parking, I would definitely go again.

The room was clean, staff was very helpful. Breakfast was pretty limited but the waffles were great. Pool was nice and clean with towels available. Parking available at extra cost, but there is plenty of street parking on the side street if you want to save some money.
