All rooms are located above one of the loudest bars in Santa Monica. Be prepared to feel the bass every night until 2-3 am. There is nothing you can do except for using ear plugs. Even through earplugs, the music was hearing loud. Not recommended for families. I saw a cockroach in the room. The communication with the host was OK but not as smooth as I would have expected. Requests at least couple of days in advance your room code if do not want to wait before the door to receive it.

The location was very convenient. It is a 2 minute walk to Santa Monica Pier, restaurants, shops and bars.

It could benefit from some refurbishment as some items show lots if wear and tear; needs deep cleaning! The bathroom was full of mold

Great location

We booked through booking.com and were given a phone number to contact about checking in and for parking. Hours before we were supposed to check in, I called the number to schedule a check in time but it went straight to voicemail. The person we were in contact with was unwilling to take a call and would only text. When we arrived to the property and had trouble finding the parking, he still was unwilling to take a call and insisted on only texting which was frustrating. After we had already settled in and were in our room, another couple suddenly walks into our room using the door code. We come to find out that they had put us in the wrong room and we were supposed to be in another room. It was unsettling knowing that the other couple had the door code to our room and had just walked in. The host did end up changing the door code for us afterwards.

We loved the location, it was walking distance to Third Street Promenade and the pier. A bunch of food spots around too!

Our room had no aircon. We luckily came in the winter, so just a heads up for summer.

Location. Big tick, lots of bars and restaurants around. And walking distance to the pier. It Is loud till 11pm in the week and a little later on the weekend, didn’t bother us because we like to go out. Could be abit noisy if you prefer to stay in.

Very noisy area late at night, which made it difficult to sleep. It was warm and I had to open the windows for a cool breeze. The absence of a lift was also inconvenient, as I had to carry my 60 lbs luggage up the stairs to the 3rd floor.

Easy to find, good location opposite Santa Monica Pier, clean facilities, many restaurant options nearby

The downstair front door was permanently open creating a security risk. The door code was wrong so I phoned the manager Gustavo, he came over and gave me the code to our room (202) and explained the parking situation which was not at all clear from the website You get a voucher - which you have to pay $27.00 for - to park over the road somewhere, luckily Gustavo was there to show my husband where it was, but other people we met were not so fortunate and had to spend $50.00 per night to park elsewhere. Room 202 is directly above the Whaler bar which has loud thumping music all day and night until 2am. The place was old and shabby, the bathroom was particularly unpleasant. Just enough coffee and stuff for two cups and the cooker did not work.

Had to chase up for entry codes even though I had let them know when I was arriving. Above a bar! Extremely loud, luckily I was jet lagged and it was only for one night.

No covers on plugs, some plugs did not work, broken toilet paper holder, some mold on ceiling, bathtub was not very clean. I’ve enclosed a pic of exit in parking and you can see there is nothing that says scan.

I would like my parking refunded. Since I paid cash for it.

Loud music and people on the street until early morning. Very uncomfortable mattresses. Bathroom showed a lot of wear, including chipped and stained tub, holes in wall where towel bar used to be, no towel bar, worn spots on the toilet seat and unless we fixed it, the toilet ran all the time. There was a variety of conditioners, but the shampoo was strawberry fragranced. All 3 window curtain rods were crooked, although consistently crooked... and each rod had different finials. Also, each curtain panel was a different color and not in a good way. The smoke alarm was obviously missing. There was an electrical outlate with burn marks and no cover plate. Nothing would stay plugged into the outlet next to bed.

While our room was above a bar with loud booming club music and loud people on the street until the wee hours of the morning, it was very centrally located and closed to many attractions, including the Pier, restaurantsand the 3rd Street Promenade. Although we only used the fridge, the kitchenette was spacious and nice. Reasonably stocked with kichenwares. The room was clean. The sheets were clean and fresh, and the pillows were good. The room was very spacious and had nice "wood" floors instead of gross carpet. The 3 large windows provided lots of light. The shower had decent pressure, and the water was hot. The shower doors were very nice modern frameless glass hinged doors.

above a bar that played music until 2am on a Thursday. We we’re told that they only played on Fridays & Saturday. Very disappointed. also was unaware of parking issues for the place. Had to pay an extra $20 for parking

very close to the ocean and Pier

Great location

This place is above a bar and read it could be a little noisy, but figured I was going on weekdays so it wouldn't be an issue. The music started around 4pm and ended at like 11ish. It seemed a little loud but not horrible. But what was more annoying and distracting was the door to the place continually slamming closed every time. Maybe can do something to gix the issue.

The location was awesome across street from Santa Monica Pier.

The LA county sheriff's knocks on my door looking for someone who have them the hotels address...I thought it was very strange, shocking they'd knock on my door Small hotel sound travels very easily my room next to the only entrance I should of avoided it.
