    Hotel exterior
    Francz K.

    This hotel requires security deposit of $50 at check in payable only by a physical debit or credit card! NO contactless payment such as Apple Pay, NO cash and NO gift card! Beware if you are using prepaid card like PayPal debit card or cash app debit card that deposit will be refunded after more than two weeks! Additionally they falsely advertised some of room amenities on the hotel booking site because there is NO microwave in the room! NO kitchenware! Rooms are NOT soundproof as I could hear heavy stomping of feet from the room above me! Also the balcony/terrace in my room is for decorative purposes as it offers a view of a drab looking private residential apartment complex and is also so narrow you can't even fit a chair! Only positives here are the surrounding neighborhood looks safe! There are seating booths in the lobby with mounted flat screen TVs on each one of them for personalized entertainment! There is a fitness center, swimming pool and guest laundry on the first floor!

    Tried this hotel for the first time and have to say originally it was due to a great price but turns out to be a great Marriott Courtyard The very positives - very easy and FREE parking - great front desk support - friendly and helpful staff throughout stay - very clean both room and interior of hotel - outside well kept And for the cons , can't come up with anything... okay one light was out in the room , but everything else was working well! And as amazed as I am to find free parking anymore also in this room was two full size waters and they didn't have a 6 buck tag on them ... also free. Heck I think will add a pic of them now , that is what it has come too ... getting excited about free water !!! One thing will say , this was a pool side room , meaning right on the pool so need to be okay with a little noise or you might want to ask for something off the pool But again , great Marriott Hotel and will be back soon ... thanks to everyone who made this an enjoyable stay

    Comfortable room and beds :)

    I thought this hotel was located in a good location. It was close enough to a variety of Japanese and Korean restaurants, so you have many choices to choose from. But it was also far enough away from the main streets which helped make for a more quiet stay. The hotel is also located at an optimal location from the airport where you can just take local roads instead of having to deal with freeway traffic. The hotel rooms were comfortable. The beds were supportive and the rooms had decent insulation to stay quiet. I do think the hotel is starting to show its age a little. The furniture and room decor is definitely feeling a bit outdated. But with a proper renovation, I think this would be an even more inviting location to stay at :)

    Broken in bathroom door

    This unfortunately was one of worst hotels I have stayed at in a really long time. I needed a quick place to stay after traveling from the east coast and have happily stayed at Marriott hotels many times in the past. From the second I arrived, the experience was miserable. Instead of a kind welcoming face to be greeted by after my travel, I was greeted by a rude and stern woman first unlocked the front door of the lobby. She refused to check me in until after making me go to the business center to print an unnecessary document since she wouldn't accept the email copy. I asked her if there was a manager and she said "no but I'm the auditor". I was very tired and considered a new hotel at this point, but since it was late I decided to just stay anyway. The room itself was disgusting. As soon I as I entered the room it must've been 80 degrees. There were handprints on the walls in the bathroom, the bathroom door was cracked like someone was trying to break in, and the paint chipped. When I went to take a shower the pipes made a terrible noise and the water barely streamed out. When I tried to speak to the front desk they tried to blame my issues on the availability of rooms they had and also stated the manager was busy. I called back to speak to the manager Mario and they said he was busy again and would call me back. I never received a call back and they over charged me! I finally got ahold of the manager Mario by calling again and he was working the front desk. He was kind and realized my experience was definitely not up to par for a Marriott hotel. He said he would fix this for me. He never got back to me again. I've never had such a miserable experience before and will definitely not be returning. Anyone that's thinking of a hotel to stay at for the night. Skip this one, it's not worth the frustration and disappointment.

    King Size bed...so comfortable
    Mina F.

    This location is in the heart of Torrance. Very convenient and close to the mall/restaurants/park. I booked through an app so it was a breeze to check in and out. The room is spacious and newly renovated. We got a King size bed with a pull out sofa (very comfortable beds)...Perfect for the 3 of us. There's a ton of USB chargers in every corner of the roo There's plenty of parking (not covered) which is conveniently right outside our room. We had a room on the second floor so the elevator was located right by the entrance. It's also very quiet. No noise from the street even though the hotel is located on the Main Street. We would definitely stay here again.

    I remembered staying here some years back but didn't realize it when I booked. This visit I was here for a week and wanted a location closer to the airport. Added bonuses were a mall and some restaurants close by (I.e Kings Hawaiian). Only 15 -20 minutes to Redondo, Hermosa & Manhattan beaches. Interesting layout with elevators located on both sides vs in the front. Nice balance if you park on the side of building. They have a limited bistro that has coffee, snacks, breakfast & dinner options. Small but full bar that is open from 5-9 pm. Pool is open from 9-7 pm and heated (81 degrees). It is a nice space with an outside lounge area that has a fire pit. Although I didn't get a swim in as I got back later. Fitness room is adequate with various cardio machines and dumbbells. The Elkay water refill station was a nice touch. I checked in late my first night and all of the 3rd/top floor rooms were gone and they offered to move me the next day which worked better. I hadn't entered my Rewards number when I booked and of course that makes a difference. My double Queen bed room was clean and a good size with a mini fridge. Not much difference between 1st and 3rd floor (except 3rd floor room shower had pressure) given usually the higher you are the better the rooms. Upper floor rooms had a deck. There was a musty smell coming out of the AC unit which they addressed but unfortunately it was back a couple of days after. Overall, service was very good with friendly people at the front desk and throughout which I've found to be consistent with Marriott . I would stay here again.

    Prepaid Breakfast ticket

    Will stay again! 1. Free parking and easy to find a spot closer to hotel side entrance that is close to the elevator. 2. We prepaid for breakfast and the food was good. Great selections. We had dinner there too. the Burger and fries were delicious. Great service. 3. Our room was close to the parking lot on the top floor so it was quiet. 4. There was a pool and firepit but we didn't use it. 5. Our room is very clean. We later learned it was prepared by a staff they just hired. Good job! 6. There is no microwave oven in the room but you can come down to next to front desk to use the public one. There is a fridge in the room. 7. The wifi is MEH but we just ended up using cellphone as tethering. 8. The lobby area was nice , we came down a few times to kick it. 9. We also used their iMac to play some kids online games. 10. Didn't check out their fitness center. 11. There are restaurants right across that we didn't have to travel far. 12. The area seems quiet except the street is a boulevard so expect traffic and fast speed car once you exit the hotel. We stayed at Courtyard Hawthorne last year and compared with this one , the free parking and the less hectic lobby and surrounding area gave us a pleasant stay.

    We visited Torrance before and thought we were getting the same Marriott Courtyard, but this was a different location, and it was so much nicer! From the property, location, parking, staff, and accommodations, everything was much better. The room was spacious and clean, and the double desk served as a dining table. The bathroom was huge and the beds were comfy.We looked out of the window and discovered we had a balcony! No furniture, but a balcony nonetheless. On our 1st night, my BF dropped this sweater close to our door and the next morning the cleaning lady was kind enough to return it when she realized someone had checked into the room. We were able to park near the side entrance and access our part of the hotel with such ease. The only issues we encountered were the loud work crew doing renovations in the room next door at 7:30am and the lack of microwaves available. We had to use one on the floor below (it was very clean). I know we will be back and this hotel is our first choice. Thank you Marriott Courtyard Torrance!

    My stay was remarkable, from friendly smiling faces to helpful front desk staff - no RBF's here like the one I got in Texas (totally different hotel chain). Next time I stay in the Torrance area, I will definitely book my stay here. I was attending my dear friend's wedding in Rancho Palos Verdes, and they were staying in Redondo Beach at Crowne Plaza. I used my points at this hotel, being the saavy traveler that I am, not that I travel often cuz I don't get out much from SF Bay Area. I just love Marriotts; they know hospitality! My major was hospitality, didn't do well during recession, but life never works out the way you planned. The maids were friendly and accommodating when I needed more towels, except I startled one in the hallway when asking for towels. She jumped and said "mija"! The ladies at the bar were nice, and I got a double shot of Don Julio on BOGO margarita night, which are Saturday nights after 5pm btw. I flew in Saturday evening - score! The outdoor pool had a nice ambiance. It was so warm in November, kids were playing and swimming in the pool. The fire pit is a nice touch to sit outside in SoCal during the Fall season. I couldn't believe how beautiful the weather was, people are wearing parkas in SF, and it's blizzard weather in Maine. Be sure to tell your Lyft drivers (no Uber for me) that it's the Marriott Courtyard on Sepulveda, not the other one. Beds are hella comfortable. I love this area, the nearby mall Del Amo is humongous with lots & lots of parking unlike SF. There's a Din Tai Fung in it. King's Hawaiian is right across the street. What's not to love about this area...not really a question! 'Til we meet again ~ cheers & see you on Yelp (SYOY)!

    Black substance in bed.  Both beds!
    Rachel K.

    Horrible! From check in to checkout the hotel staff ensured our experience was awful! When we checked in - using a friends and family discount - the front desk person instantly became rude to us. We checked in the room, I dropped something behind the bed and noticed a black substance and candy wrapper under bed. We were instantly concerned about the cleanliness of the room. In further looking noticed stains and general lack of cleaning. I called the front desk to inform them. They said pack your stuff and come to the desk. Not ideal when only staying one night and just getting settled. We go to desk and I ask if new room has been cleaned and checked. I was assured it had been. Nope! Second room was also dirty. At this point it is late and we are tired and hotel staff is offering no help or suggestions. We decide to stay and just get up and shower and leave in the morning. Upon getting up in am to shower we notice someone else's hair in the tub! I go to all to front desk and she states there is nothing that can be done because of discount used. BTW the room is around $200 per night with discount which was paid on the card. I ask to talk to manager and she offers me 1000 points. That is about $10! We would have been way better off at a discount chain.

When I realized that they offer periodic dog walking days, and that they had a cool TROLLS exhibit going on, we decided to finally seize the day. Overall, it was pleasant and worth the drive. We are a bit spoiled in our part of LA with The Huntington, Descanso, and LA Arboretum. Based on my experiences in these places, I would say that South Coast feels more rugged in good and bad ways. The positive side is that it feels less curated and polished and more like a relaxed meander in nature. The downside is that signage was lacking, and the road into the parking lot and the lot itself were in very bad shape. Many trails are dirt, and not paved. This wasn't a problem for us, as we wore clothes suitable for dog walking (like we were going on a hike). However, it could be a surprise for people who show up in sandals. At the same time, the public art, programming, and cafe elevate the garden beyond a mere walk in the park. We really enjoyed the whimsical TROLLs and permanent pieces. We didn't participate in the butterfly exhibit or purchase food or drink, but these both looked nice. I am not sure whether we'll be back, due to the hour+ drive and our proximity to other options. However, I am glad we finally did it!
