    Didnt feel particually safe as entered via a back door. You cant drive up to the front as is right on the beach. The communal areas were not pleasent, and smelt of weed. I wouldnt stay again, but then didnt like venice beach, sadly a lot of homeless people living on the beach. However to note we did go in a very bad storm so was a wash out for us.

    This is a difficult one, because we arrived in the dark, and it was a storm. The room actually was ok, the bed extremely comfy and there was some parking a 5 minute walk away. facilities with a kitchette was useful for breakfast, and would be if you stayed a while. right on the beach.

    Just the one male staff person threatened to beat me up when I asked him why he didn’t tell me parking wasn’t included and if I parked right at building at one of the many spots next to it, then $60 a night. Otherwise a few blocks away would be $20 a night. I stayed 2 nights; On the 3rd at check out, there was a tire lock on my car and then I was told it was $60 a night. This is tall black male staff member who checked me in was standing by parking security having a cigarette telling me i didn’t ask him about parking. i replied he didn’t tell me we couldn’t park in the obvious spot underneath the window of our studio. He then threatened to beat me up when I told him it was his responsibility to inform me of parking regulations. He was the most unprofessional & nasty hotel service Ive ever encountered. However the female staff there, were polite and nice.

    The location on the beach and the partial ocean view that I paid $20 extra for was worth it. I didn’t get the studio with the sofa, but I got the Junior suite without the sofa.

    You can hear sounds from the beach/street and other rooms pretty clearly. Rooms are not well soundproofed.

    Excellent location for walking on the Venice beach boardwalk. Pretty much in the middle of the pier and marina del rey, we could walk to both. Decent food and drink options nearby. The hotel is clean with a nice rooftop. Good vibes. There is parking right next to the hotel for an additional $45 per day and night. Not the cheapest you can find in the area and very conveniently located right next to the hotel.

    1) On our arrival on 12/28/22 at 11 PM and no one picked the three phones listed on the door, lobby supposed to be open until 12AM. With my family waiting in car, I kept calling for about 10 minutes and luckily an employee happened to walk by. He was not on the clock, not supposed to be working, but he checked us in. Of course he was grumbling that some needs to be fired for not answering phones, as it was only 11 PM, not 12 AM lobby close time. 2) Parking is a good 7 minutes walk away and these days it was raining, so made it more hard. 3) They had water heater issues and often water was just luke warm and not hot.

    Beach front. Clean.

    Only issue was the sofabed - my kids took turns but they found it quite uncomfortable, more of a hard sofa than a bed. Fold out bed was amazing though!

    Spacious apartment on 3rd floor with amazing beachfront views. At the quieter end of Venice. Bedroom was great with a very comfy bed. Nice and secure entrance with helpful staff

    Clean, spacious and a comfortable bed. It was more than I expected for the price. Staff were extremely friendly & helpful. On our last day they offered to store our cases as we had an evening flight and had a luncheon with friends to go to, when we came back we had the use of the roof top to relax on until it was time to leave.

    It's often difficult to get in contact with the hotel via email. I have emailed several times with no response prior to arriving.

    We love this hotel and have stayed so many times. The location is wonderful and the rooms are clean. However, the internal carpet and foyer needs some TLC.

    Staff are unhelpful and downright rude. Expect no service whatsoever. Beware, you need to catch reception staff to ask for your room to be cleaned. If you can catch them, that is, because reception staff is not always there!

    Parking in the area is a nightmare, the recommended parking is ok but a good 10min walk away - do that a few times and you quickly get over it.

    You are on Venice Beach, which is magic !

    There are homeless people who sleep on the beach nearby. It makes nighttime feel unsafe if on your own and there was often noise during the night. I was Ok with it but I think Santa Monica would be a better option if you can afford the price hike

    The hotel is right on the beach with great views from the front rooms and roof terrace. There are alot of places to eat near by and during the day Venice Beach is bustling with people and activity. Its a nice walk / cycle during the day to Santa Monica at about 30 mins with lots of shopping / resaturants.

    The tv remote did not work unless you standing right in front of the Tv, up close! Which defeats the purpose of a remote. The ceiling light had a mind of its own and kept coming on randomly after we turn it off, this was especially annoying when we were trying to sleep! Bed was very creaky and loud with every movement.

    The location was amazing! Room was nice. High ceilings, renovated bath. Very clean! You can tell building was old though by the smell in the halls and very ancient elevator. Not a deal breaker though.

    Thin room walls. You can hear even the wind.

    The hotel is overpriced but it is literally located a few meters away from the beach. The location is magnificent since you are 3km away from Santa Monica. You can enjoy the Pacific view by walking (or running) along the beach from Venice to Santa Monica. Plenty of shops, bars, restaurants nearby. You can meet all kinds of people
