Walkable to everything in Santa Monica and very close to the beach. Overall quiet despite being on busy road. Public overnight parking is difficult to find super close unless you get there very early. The spots onsite are tight. I would definitely stay again.

The hotel is in a good location, walking distance to beach, food and shopping. It is a bit pricy for the property condition though. Also, parking is hard.

Did not like the parking and noise due to traffic. Constant honking on the horns. Have to expect since it is so close to beach.

Close proximity to beach and pier with many places to eat and shop within walking distance. Hotel staff were all very helpful and friendly during our stay. There is parking on site but if you have a full size SUV or truck please be aware that parking spaces are small with not a lot of space to maneuver. We will stay again in the future. Thank you!

Location was great! It’s really close to the beach & walkable to restaurants, shopping, & the pier. It is hard to park there, & expensive to park there. It’s also quite noisy due to traffic on the road, but it was clean & perfect for our needs.

In spite of the property being older, it is well maintained, clean and comfortable.
They can improve their service by having at least two vending machines, drinks and snacks.

Great location a couple blocks from the Santa Monica pier, downtown Santa Monica and walkable to Venice Beach. Cute “old school” motel experience, with clean and updated room. Two women traveling and felt safe although you are in a busy tourist area so always be aware of you surroundings. Definitely would stay again.
