I must have stayed at a different Ramada Hotel than the other reviewers stayed at. The hotel is well located on Santa Monica Blvd; and I found it to be close to many, many restaurants and much nightlife. The price was reasonable for the location. But the service was atrocious. The employees were annoyed that we wanted to check in; check out was almost as bad. The design and finishes of the hotel were worn out and many years out of date. I forget what the valet parking charge was, but it was outrageous. I did not want to valet; but we were not given a choice. When we checked out, we were told that there was no valet service and they could not locate our car. We rode through the parking garage with a security officer and eventually located the car. But where were our keys? After another half hour of searching, suddenly the keys were found. Despite the great location and fairly reasonable price, I would skip this place.
