1. i am a recording artist frequently working in Los Angeles, having friends living in Venice i often stay at there houses while working, whenever i need some time for myself i will go to Cadillac Hotel as it is located beautifully on beach, i have always been happy staying there but this year i was greatly surprised walking in, the good vibes from the receptionist and staff really made me feel welcome, good and safe, all the rooms was renovated in a nice simple and clean style, the prices was even cheaper than before for some reason, i had some problems with my computer and the manager would go out of her way helping me with whatever she could, the building itself has a great vibe to it, maybe the history of this Hotel still spreads the vibe of classical Venice artistery, Charles Chaplin was staying there agin and agin, Jim Morrison was hanging out and jamming there, its a historic Venice Hotel indeed, i always liked that Hotel and i am happy to experince the upgrade this year, if you are visiting Venice i suggest you check out Cadillac Hotel and experince for yourself.
