I had a mixed experience at The M Malibu. The location is fantastic, right across from the beach, but service and check-in were problematic during my stay. While the rooms were clean and decorated nicely, there were some inconveniences like noise from the road. The pool area was a lovely spot to relax, but dining options nearby were limited.

While the hotel is decently priced and has a cozy pool area, my experience was far from great. The room I stayed in was less than satisfactory, being cramped and too close to the noise from the street, making it hard to relax. Additionally, the lack of significant dining options on-site was disappointing.
