Gary United States of America

It was well kept, comfy beds, and close to the beach via walking and public transportation.

Felicity United States of America

This hotel is located within Santa Monica proper, not too close to the beach and pier which is fine with me. There were plenty of coffee shops and local places to walk to for food. Electric scooters and bikes are available for a quick ride to the beach. The rooms were clean, bright and homey. Parking was underground with a daily attendant, very helpful and kind man. You can re-enter throughout your stay. Parking is an additional fee though!

Louise United States of America

Liked everything. we stayed there because in the morning my husband had to have a procedure in UCLA and it was only 3 minutes from our appointment.

Raisa United States of America

Location was close to family and not far from the beach/shopping area.
