A kitch, hip vibe characterizes this former motel property updated into a contemporary place to stay in Santa Monica. The room was very comfortable, the location was great if you’re staying in West LA/beach area. Very easy access to the freeway system.

This small hotel, but it is very near Santa Monica pier and Venice Beach, I think it’s a great place to stay with a family or to go for business. The staff is really friendly and also really helpful.

Nice room. No A/C, so maybe not in mid-summer.
Robert, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

For a quick trip the hotel is fine. Rooms are small, much smaller than depicted. The rooms do not have a traditional coffee maker, fridge or microwave. Extremely basic and much farther to pier that depicted on map.

4/10 Fair

Not so good!
Wanted to give us a double bed and not queen bed as reservation stated…after long back and forth tired and angry, we got the queen size bed. Room had ants in the bathroom!
Gennaro, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

This is definitely just a dressed up motel, not a hotel. The price seemed a bit high for the accommodations, but maybe that's just how California is - we're not from California. The room was very clean and everything was decorated really cute. The parking was a big plus! The mattress was not good. It was loud - as you might expect a motel to be - but we brought a sound machine and slept good.
Amanda, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

it was a great place to sleep
Manuel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

When we arrived we had to clean the bathroom sink because there were hair shavings in it, having said that for the rest of our stay the room was kept nice and clean. Staff were friendly but knowledge of the area was limited. Not enough storage facikities for clothes in the room. Beds were comfy and bathroom was big. A pleasant 20 minute walk to the beach pier, bars and restaurants. Overall we enjoyed our stay
