The staff were the most attentive and courteous that I've ever experienced from a Motel/Hotel. We got the key to our room and the manager came out after we parked and said that he saw a child and another adult in the car so he wanted to show us a different room for the same price where the single beds were the same as our room, but this one had a wall separating the Queen/King bed and the 2 twin beds for more privacy. We kept the original room we booked because I doubt my 5yo would sleep in a bed where she can't see me, especially in a strange place. The room was very tidey, quiet (with the exception of having banging noises from the Jack N the Box and the neighborhood at night). Also, it is near everything. About 1 mile from the Santa Monica pier and 2 miles or so from Venice beach. Just a wonderful little spot for the right price, wonderful and welcoming staff and close to a lot of things.

The only thing I missed was having a microwave and coffee pot. Although there is a Jack N the Box about 50 feet from the hotel parking lot where you can get coffee, it'd be nice to not have to get dressed when needing coffee.

I don't remember my room number, but it was in-between two rooms. Parking was easy. The staff was very friendly. If I had had a longer stay, then I would have utilized the outdoor patio area. I stayed the night of July 4th so could visit with friends that live near the Santa Monica Beach.

The hotel is an older building and has thin walls. I am a very light sleeper, so the gentleman that was snoring in the room next to mine kept me awake throughout the night. Also, the other tenants letting their room doors slam in the morning time woke me up, as did their noisy loading of their cars since the parking lot is so close to the hotel. Even with hear plugs in, I still not sleep well because the noise.

Came back to a cleaned room every day, fresh towels, bed sheets changed often too . All nice n white. Comfy soft bed lovely. Fab courtyard/garden with lots of seats. Sit & watch the squirrels . Secure & locked gates ..Staff lovely. Looked after our luggage for us on the last day till 6pm so we didn’t have to walk around with our suitcases all day, and on our return to pick them up they allowed us to use the courtyard to get organised & use the guest bathroom before heading to the airport. Thankyou Property right next door to Jack in the box so we were able to get our coffee there each morning.

blocked shower drain & bathroom sink A jug and cups would be good so guests can make coffee.

The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Very nice garden in the rear for relaxation away from the Lincoln Avenue traffic noise. Good amenities, nice big towels. The room was kind of small but serviceable; we had three beds, with twins in a private alcove which is good for families.

The location, while convenient for cars and public transit, was in an area that can sometimes get noisy/boisterous in the evening and we had such an experience one of our three nights. Beds in adjoining rooms were back-to-back and walls not so thick, which led to a rhythmic and loud post-midnight percussion experience.

Warm welcome from the staff. All the necessary comfort in the room, fridge, air conditioning and very clean. Ideal location, 15 min walk from the pier. Free parking. I recommend this place

For the star rating of a 2/3 star Motel you won’t find better, well run, with free parking, very close to a 7 eleven, Starbucks and for those who are driving around to see California there are plenty of gas stations near. I felt very safe and would book again without hesitation.

On the drive to the Motel like most city’s and county’s you will see the odd person with mental health conditions on the road side, no fault of the Motel it’s just the world we live in.

The hotel is a great place to get away from It all and chill. It is cool and fun with great owners.

I love everything about the hotel so I will have to say that it's the cutest motel that we have been too and I give it 5 stars ++. I am.glad we found this gem. It is always the place we will visit in Santa Monica 👣

Rooms were clean and beds very comfortable and cosy. Location great for walking to local shops and restaurants, and beach. Bus stops close by if you're getting tired of walking !

Would have loved a kettle in the room for morning tea/coffee. second bedroom had two beds and there wasn't much space to walk inbetween them.

Really cool smart funky little motel in a nice part of town grant is a really nice road walked to a health food shop a few blocks away, easy to get to downtown Santa Monica trains etc bus from LAX stops right near beautiful little garden out the back the owners were soo lovely

Nothing it was perfect

hot water, wifi, room keep warm, Jack in the box just in front of you! your car parking just outside the door! The service staff was very kind!

There is no toothbrush toothpaste, but it can be bought nearby!
