I usually stay at the El Segundo Courtyard because it is close to LAX, but I am visiting customers in Torrance, so chose this Courtyard instead. It is pretty much undistinguishable from the El Segundo Courtyard (which is not a bad thing), but 2 people working there make it special. Patricia and Dean work most nights in the Bistro, and they are the stars of this Courtyard. They are friendly, efficient and just wonderful people. Congratulations to Courtyard on hiring these 2 stars!

This was my first stay at this Marriott for business. I'm glad my company sent me here because I know I will get the consistency of good service. The lobby appears to be newly renovated. The room was what I expected of a Marriott Courtyard - clean and comfortable. I will be staying here frequently and will give an update in a couple months. The beach seaside restaurants are 15 to 20 minutes away. For LA, this hotel is still considered close to the airport.

This hotel is in a good spot if you have meeting in beach cities or LA. Only 20 minutes to downtown after rush hour and 20 to 40 to other beach cities south of LA. When on an expense account budget staying in LA can be challenging. This hotel fit the bill. The service was great from front desk to attendants behind the counter at dinner and happy hour. Leave your car at front door until you check in because there are entrances all around the property that will make it easier to get your luggage in and out. Redondo Beach is minutes away a straight shot on 190th so taking a break for dinner or a walk is easy. I will stay again.

stayed here back in December for a quick weekend get away and this turned out to be actually a very nice courtyard! Wouldn't mind staying here again! For the price I nailed on Expedia it was well worth the money spent!

I had a pleasant stay here. The hotel was located right off the highway and easy to find with the GPS. Plenty of free parking right at the door. The check-in staff were super friendly and efficient and everything went smoothly. The only small problems were 1) Some Courtyards offer free breakfast for Gold Members; this one doesn't and 2) this hotel did not have a room safe which I feel is essential. The rate was fine and the room was neat, spacious, quiet and clean. Not a lot of choice for restaurants in the immediate are but they are only a short drive away.

I stayed at this hotel for one night for business and chose it based on location to where my meeting was being held. Because of the freeway and the direction I came from, it was a little difficult to get to but my GPS on my phone got me there. The staff was super friendly and helpful (without being annoying) and I loved the way the hotel is decorated. It's very modern, so I felt confident that the room would be as well. My room was great....clean, modern and comfortable. The only drawback was the noise from the freeway because my room was on that side of the building, however, I DID choose this hotel based on it's location so I'm not complaining. I just turned on the A/C unit and it drowned out the freeway noise... With tax, my room was just over $200 a night and I typically

I had a business getaway for the first weekend in March. Loved the atmosphere, interior design of lobby, friendliness and helpfulness of staff. Very convenient to highway, traffic noise undetectable at my room. Patio view was nice but space too small.

This is an expensive Courtyard. I did like it and will probably stay again as it is near the work location I was visiting. The extra cost for me was worth the short drive to work. Check-in was quick, welcoming, and easy. It is a little tricky to get into/out of the location at rush hour due to traffic. No problem parking in front. But that is also what makes it a convenient location. Rooms are on the small side, but still standard Courtyard (you just notice it more when pushing the desk chair back and bumping the table). But it was a King so the bed does take a little more room. I really liked the balcony (4th floor) overlooking an actual Courtyard (pool). The Gym was standard with 2 treadmills, bench, Ellipitical?, and dumbells. Did not use the pool. It is the design

I have stayed a few times at this place. This has become way too expensive for no incremental addition of amenities or facilities, except the lobby. It is a fairly clean place and located at a very accessible location for business travellers to Toyota, ANA and Torrace area. The restaurant has some new food options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Rooms are a tard smaller but still clean and good. However, there is no value for money.
