    Mattress wasn't too our liking. A little soft for our taste. We like firm, but understand not everyone does.

    Great staff at front desk. Fast check in and he let us check in early. Lot's of on street parking if you are there early or have a disabled placard. Very safe neighborhood.

    It is quite noisy. We could almost understand the talks from the neighbor room. It seems a wooden building with little noise decoupling.

    Liked the hotel look and the location

    We were pleasantly surprised at the room size, the kitchen available that offered a toaster, tea kettles, a coffee machine, and a community fridge where you could store food that doesn't fit in the mini fridge in the room. There was a full stove there too but out of service. Laundry room available as well. Everything was really clean, too. Steven, the front desk staff was awesome! Excellent customer service and very accommodating. Parking is limited but great as well. Thank you for making our stay easy and very comfortable 🙏🏽

    Too much noise from 5am from the cars on the road outside. Light in the bathroom, stays on only for few minutes. After you need to continue your shower in the dark. Parking access is very bad, easy to damage the bottom of the car

    Good room, big enough. Confortable bed.

    After travelling in San Diego as a group of young girls we felt extremely unsafe . It was therefore so important for us to pick a hotel in La where we not only felt safe in the location but also the staff - the staff here could not do enough for us , they made us feel so safe and so comfortable. The location we also loved - walking after dark to the hotel we had no problems . Located also so close to Santa Monica pier and very easy transport to get to Hollywood , Beverly Hills etc

    I first stayed for 5 nights, then extended for another 4 nights, and later postponed my check-out again. Overall, the experience was great. The only thing that confused me was that someone came knocking on the door on my check-out day, even though I had informed them in advance about extending my stay and checking out later. Also, the soundproofing isn’t great. During the last few nights, I could clearly hear people talking—and even snoring—from the room next door.

    The overall stay was really nice. Checking in and out was easy and flexible, and the whole place had a relaxed and comfortable vibe—it didn’t feel hard to approach or get used to.

    There was a hiccup during check-in where the hotel double-booked our room. There were three of us and we booked a room with 4 beds. We were then given a room with double beds, which was not desirable after a long drive to LA.

    It is a modern hotel, the rooms are clean with amenities such as shampoo & body wash. There was a bar right next to the reception which offered decently priced happy hour cocktails, considering we were in Santa Monica.

    Challenging to find the garage (take the small passage to the left of the hotel and find your way doen to the parking in the alley), and I think we paid $36,- a night, which might be good for LA, but still high. Bad waterpressure in the shower.

    Perfectly located on the Santa Monica Boulevard just a 20 minutes drive from the Pier. Easy check in and check out. Great room for 3 people (we got a 4 bed room). Common rooms available for laundry, cooking and gaming. Very practical when you have been on the road for a few days. One large drawer pr bed in the room with the possibility to put on a padlock, for your personal stuff, if you should share a 4-bed room with untrustworthy people ;-)

    The one main deal breaker was the air conditioning unit. It's LOUD when it's running. They provided ear plugs to help with noise from outdoors. Ear plugs helped to muffle the sounds from the AC.

    Location was very good, we walked to Boards coffee shop and Ono Hawaiian bbq for lunch / dinner - good prices and food. Everywhere else we drove. The communal kitchen was nice, a coffee machine served us coffee or mochas. It also has a toaster and microwave located there. The extra large frig was a good idea to have, but our small frig fit the bill. The staff was attentive and friendly, always a good thing! Rooms were comfortable and updated. Good lighting.
