    Only the location Unfortunately, this stay was disappointing. The TV didn't work for the duration of my stay, and housekeeping failed to service my room on one of the days. A new TV was provided the night before I checked out...too late! The room itself was very basic, with almost nowhere to put personal belongings and virtually no amenities provided. There weren't even any coat hangers, despite there being a clothing rack. Privacy was also an issue. The curtains couldn't really be opened because people could see directly into the room. At the same time, keeping the door open wasn't practical, which meant the room had very little natural light or fresh air. Overall, the room felt cramped and lacked the comfort and facilities I would expect for the price.

    You will need to pay for parking or you will need to park at the civic center and walk to the hotel.

    Super close to the beach. Very clean and comfortable. Location is amazing.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Great location, friendly staff and overall good value for money. Hot water was hit and miss, air con didn’t work and very stuffy room.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The parking situation is terrible. Only 7 regular parking slots that have to be reserved around 11am or you're screwed. Employees park behind you, locking you in for the night so forget late night beach drives along the coast.

    It was tiny and efficient. Walking distance to the beach. Rooms were a little warm but manageable. Esthetics were super cute, loved the vibe!

    The location Lack of parking

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Staff was nice and accommodating, close to everything including liquor stores , the pier and the beach. No microwave in the rooms , poor ac and particularly small shower.

    Superb

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    We had to catch an early flight the next morning and hung out with friends on our last night in California so our stay was very short but it was very pleasant. The bed was super comfortable. The room was clean, the place was quiet and very close to all Santa Monica has to offer. Would definitely stay here again!
