Toby Orr. Staying at the Hampton in Santa Monica. Had issue with my key and Jered spent a lot of time helping me find it. This was also at 1130 PM. I had looked through the car and could not locate it. So appreciated his willingness to help and that he found the key.

Human excrement in the entrance.
Homeless shelter next door so children are not safe.
Train station across the road so you will hear the trains through the night.
Blood stains on pillow case.
Large stains on mattress.
When complained, Ian the manager says "I don't care if you post".
