"We had an amazing time at the Patrician! My girlfriend and I were celebrating our anniversary and this was the perfect place to do it. TJ was an exceptional host, and the service and attention to detail he gave to our stay was the best I have ever experienced at a boutique hotel or BnB like this one. We will be recommending the Patrician to everyone in our lives who is looking for a peaceful getaway or a perfect home base for exploring LA!"

"This guest house was perfect for a quick vacation to Malibu. The room was comfy and the views were great. My only “complaint” although this was nothing major, there was some construction going on at the neighbors homes which made parking tricky at times. Despite the parking situation, I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quaint getaway."

"I booked this “hotel” thinking it was part of a known hotel chain. It turns out to be a random guest house hiding behind a misleading, almost-identical name. The minute you book, you get a text from a random number demanding a photo of your driver’s license. No explanation, no professionalism, just a sketchy text message asking for personal info. Then you look at their one review and your stomach drops. Nothing about this place feels safe. The person texting is rude and unhelpful, and when I...
