Bluestem Hotel Torrance Los Angeles, Ascend Hotel Collection

Location is good to get to LAX. It is a gated courtyard, so we felt safe. Location is walking distance to the San Franciscan steak house which a total hole in the wall, has been around since the 60's and is FANTASTIC! Old school steakhouse with good prices and big food! Make a reservation if you can. We barely got in.

Very contemporary great design High pressure water in shower Cute towel swan on bed Very attentive and responsive staff Great safe gate controlled parking Very nice outdoor courtyard with table chairs and gas fire pit We switched rooms (see below) and level and iPad behind by mistake. Housekeeping found it immediately and brought it to us in our new room (we didn't it was missing yet)

In general, everything.. staff very kind, they welcomed us with a smile, although the place was small, it was cozy and with a good vibe from the moment we entered. Rooms little small but very clean and smelled really pleasant compared to other hotels we have visited. I really liked that this hotel don’t have carpet since my kids have allergies. I just wish they can have breakfast in the future.

I love how clean the property is. The staff are very polite. The room was beautiful. I have a wonderful stay.

The location is in an industrial area but only a 15-20 drive to Redondo Beach. Hotel staff are very friendly and welcoming. Our room was clean and very nice. Private gated parking is great. Amenities are provided. Because of the pandemic their restaurants are closed but they offer a menu with breakfast and lunch from a nearby restaurant. And then again because of the pandemic they avoid getting in the rooms therefore housekeeping is a request by only. The hotel is a very nice small boutique hotel. Stylish. Recommendation: I suggest housekeeping should put water in the rooms when guests first arrive. I'd definitely stay there again.
