Atmosphere, comfortable & conveniently located within 5 minutes walk out to Venice Beach. Everything you needed was in your room (snacks (cookies, candy bar, chips, salsa, beef jerky) drinks (beer, soda, coffee, water, red bull).. (King room with balcony)... if not they have a general store/ breakfast Cafe on the first floor & a cute pizza (fish bowl dining area) in front of the hotel lobby. staff were super kind & friendly from check in to valet check out.

I love this hotel but it’s not for everyone as it’s a bit hipstery. Rooms on the south side have sweeping beach/ocean views. It’s location in Venice is incredible - a block from the beach, 5 min walk from the canals and 3 minutes by car from Abbott Kinney and 10 mins from Santa Monica. Had breakfast at the hotel several times - delicious and decent value (lots of folks like Eggslut next door).

Christy United States of America

perfectly well located at the heart of Venice, and yet not noisy at all. We loved the decoration of the room and its space! the rooftop restaurant is definitely a plus offering a lovely 360 view. Staff was very nice and helpful. I particularly enjoyed the text messages offering help. thank you, we’ll come back!

Christine United States of America

the hotel is close to the beach and it has a really good view to the ocean. and I also liked the shampoo and conditioner, the quality is good.

Marcia Brazil

Gregory United States of America

The staff was awesome. The location was so close to the beach but also food and shopping. The Hotel allowed us to use complimentary bikes that we used our whole trip. We even traveled up to Abbot and Kinney to shop.
