10/10 Exceptional

Great

We only stayed one night but were impressed with the cleanliness and facilities. The location was great too. We used it as a stop off on the way to LAX and it allowed us to go into Santa Monica before an easy drive to the airport. Nice, friendly staff too.

Roberto, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Good staff, below average place to stay

I had a very disappointing stay at this hotel. The building is quite old and the facilities reflect that. There was no air conditioning, which was not clearly mentioned at the time of booking. Fans were provided, but there were not enough proper outlets to plug them in. The parking was very limited and congested, making it inconvenient. The worst part was the flies and insects coming out of the sink and into the room, which made the stay very uncomfortable. On a positive note, the staff was nice and helpful, but overall this was a bad experience and not what I expected. I left feeling very disappointed.

Julie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Room was very small for four people. Good location and parking availability was a plus.
Derek, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay

Very nice. Older motel with very nice updates. Very good value. Free parking was a huge plus. Good towels and linens. Extremely clean. No air conditioning but they did provide a box fan if needed. We slept with a window open and the ceiling fan. Mattress could have been softer.
Michael, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Such a cute little place to lay your head. It was pretty quiet, beds were super comfy & it had a nice vibe. Easy access to beach on foot, or a quick uber ride. We’d definitely stay again.

The room was very clean and comfortable, the service was excellent, and we could easily walk to the beach. We have stayed there twice and will continue to do so whenever we visit family in Santa Monica.
