Malibu hotel rooms a the Independent

"Very nice and private "

"Great location, although our unit did not have view of beach. Limited deck availability for beach/ocean viewing."

"White Marble floors and shower assured us of cleanliness. Sheets were new and bright white. We arrived very early in order to avoid L.A. traffic and the hotel owner (so nice) had his staff clean our room first because the prior occupants had checked out early. This is an old hotel which has been upgraded. Our room was large and had a new comfy chair but since there was a Keurig coffee maker with lots of pods and CoffeeMate creamers and a microwave, a small café table and chairs would have been welcome. Since we were only there for one night, we chose the most economical room. I believe that all the other rooms had patios with a table and chairs. Note: It is just a short walk to a gorgeous beach and 5 minutes drive to a Pavilion Grocery Store and a French patisserie. Also, close by car to some restaurants and a Starbucks. "

"Beautiful scene and the area around looks amazing."
