anyone heard about/stayed at the Chateau Marmont?

Also a very cool hotel. Not far from the Standard and other clubs on Sunset. Very cool bar/restaurant inside the hotel called Bar Marmont.

Also, sfer's reccomendation of staying near the beach is good too. Santa Monica, Manhattan Beach, or Malibu area hotels would be nice.
