Charming with a perfect location
We love this place. It’s charming and spotless with an amazing location. The service is very friendly and there are many additional amenities in the lobby that you can choose to bring back to the room. It’s a gem and we would love to come back.

Well located neat and tidy motel in Santa Monica, two blocks back from the beach, close to loads of restaurants and cafes etc. Rooms could do with a bit more supply of plates / cutlery / coffee & tea etc.

Room was clean and comfortable. It’s not a trendy, recently renovated type of place if that’s what you’re looking for, but it’s in a great location at a great price! Every worker we interacted with was kind and helpful. No complaints whatsoever!

Nice small motel near the beach
Nothing special. But everything you need for a night or two near the beach. Plenty of parking, which is a plus. Room lacked sound insulation so the big snorer next door seemed to be in my room. Staff friendly and helpful.

This is a real vintage motel. It reminded me of places we would stay when I was a child. The check-in went smoothly and the man at the desk was friendly and helpful. There are coffeemakers and a microwave in the lobby and guests can choose which one to take to their room at check-in. The motel is in a convenient location, close to some restaurants and the beach. The Santa Monica Pier and Venice Beach are both about a mile away. The biggest problem we had was that we stayed on a Friday and Saturday night and there is a bar across the street that was very noisy well into the night. Not the motel’s fault, but certainly worth mentioning. Otherwise, it was fine for the price and offered free, safe parking.

Very nice man and his cute dog working the front desk. The room was spaciuos and clean. My only issue was that the bed was a firm box spring and the pillows were flat. But a nice one night stay overall.

This might be the best 2 star hotel on the planet. The staff were super friendly, and the room was to die for. I can totally recommend the suites, so roomy.
And the beach is a 5 minute stroll away, and they have free towels and surf boards.
Sensational, I’ll be back again
