    The room was close to the pier which was exactly what we were looking for. The motel is older but clean and slept my family of 5 comfortably

    Some guests were extremely noisy after 12 midnight. Maybe there should be a message to come back quietly after 11 pm. Also NO internet and the TV didn’t work!!!

    It is a little bit pricey. And if the luggage storage time can be a little bit longer, it will be great! My flight was at midnight, but the lady at the reception said I had to pick up my big suitcase at 5pm

    The hotel is in the best location of Santa Monica, a couple of minutes walk to the pier, so close to the metro station. The staff is very friendly, especially the lady at my 1st day. I arrived early, she let me checked in immediately which was so so nice.

    There was no common area to sit down and relax. The lobby wasn't open for tea during my stay.

    The location was great. The set up was nice with two bedrooms. Enjoyed the cleanliness.

    The location is great. 2 minutes walking to Santa Monica's Pier. But it is too expensive for a 3 stars hotel. But all of them are expensive in this area.

    Rooms a bit small for long staying. Coffee not in the room, only after 9 am at the reception.

    Very close to Santa Monica pier and not far from Venice beach. Parking available.

    The suite was a bit too small for five persons. Our car didn't fit in the parking by the hotel. We used the public parking near the hotel for a small amount each day.

    The location, the cleaning and the towel service.

    The price was expensive for the quality, but it's all pretty expensive around there.

    It was very well located and for that you pay the price for basic accommodation. The bed was comfy and the shower had good pressure and was hot.

    Our room keys stopped working half way through, but the staff were prompt in getting us new ones. There wasn’t always someone at reception.

    The location you couldn’t beat it. The room was clean and comfortable. We were able to store our bags post check out.

    My parking experience at the hotel was extremely disappointing. The maneuverability in the Parking Area was Severely constrained Due to the limited space available. Arriving Late at the hotel, I Found All The Parking Spaces Already Occupied. The Assigned Spot, which I had to navigate into, provided to be a significant challenge, requiring careful maneuvers to Prevent Potential Damage to my car or Neighboring vehicles. Regrettably, my efforts were not entirely successful, and I discovered a small scratch on one of the side doors of my car. This damage was incurred while attempting to navigate within the confined space, ultimately colliding with one of the columns present in the parking structure. This experience has left me dissatisfied, emphasizing the need for improved parking management and space allocation at the hotel.
