The location of the hotel was right in the heart of Santa Monica’s shopping area. It is a basic hotel with basic amenities, however it is clean and functional with lovely staff.

Great location, easy to walk to pier and shopping area. Fantastic breakfast at Jinnky’s located next door to hotel. Hotel is older, however room very clean, freshly painted and well maintained. Great value for money for a short stay. We have 4 nights are could not have been happier with the location and staff very friendly.

This hotel is in a fantastic location! We are a family of five and stayed in a queen suite! It was great ! 2 rooms . One with two queen beds and the other a living room with a fold out sofa bed! Brilliant! There was a small fridge but unfortunately no kettle or microwave. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this hotel .

Older hotel, friendly staff, great location

Rooms are small, the king size bed was very comfortable for my 10 year old son & I, the wifi was okay in the lobby but patchy in the room. But you can’t beat the location so I think it’s value for money in Santa Monica ..we ordered room service from the restaurant next door & it was delicious & good value, I do recommend this hotel for the price.

Fantastic location -1 block from the pier. Plenty of amenities within a stone throw. Also very close to clothes shopping precinct. Hotel is old and a bit run down but very clean. The cheapest accomm we could find for a family of four in santa monica.
