    The breakfast was quite the joke. Some apple juice, coffee and some bars.

    Excellent place to spend some days in LA. We were lucky they had room available since we initially booked a place in a super shady area

    We had a nice stay. Balcony room on upper floor overlooking beach. Lots of beach activities all day to watch: volleyball, kids playing, picnics, kayaks and paddle boards out on the bay, etc. Room not fancy but has what you need, microwave, fridge, coffee maker, very good wifi. Comfy bed. Staff is friendly and helpful.

    There was a very funky smell which wasn't fun. The bed base was a lot smaller than the mattress so I was scared to move, it felt like I was going to fall off the edge. No elevator. A/C was very noisy, kept waking me up and didn't really work properly

    Location in the day time was good. The view was lovely.

    There were not enough towels and I needed to use my own soap, but they brought us more towels and it turned out fine.

    The room was bare bones but it was very clean and the beds were comfortable, Coffee was pathetic but coffee shops were abundant and in walking distance. Saturday morning the Farmer's Market was open on the Marina.

    A coffee maker in the room would have been nice.

    This was a good value, small, older motel right on the beach at the marina. It has a great view, although our room did have one since it was on the back side. The bed was really, really comfortable. It was an easy 15-20 minute walk to shops and restaurants.

    The drilling or vacuuming at 0800 next to our room. Not sure what that was from but it was exceptionally noisy. No one could sleep through that. Appears to have homeless in the beach area.

    Nice location, next to the Cheesecake Factory restaurant and down the beach from a nice breakfast patio place. Older place but the room was clean.
