Loved the place as it was right next to the Beach, no need to drive around it was just a walk down the stairs. My family and I loved the room it was very cute and cleaned. They just didn't have no AC which is OK aince it was cold at night. Free parking also and the staff was very accomodating. We'll book here again for our next trip

Really great spot for our family. We had one afternoon to explore Santa Monica and Venice beach. Took a bike tour to Venice beach, then Waymo back. Ate dinner right near hotel. Then breakfast next morning nearby. Perfect location. Walk to beach, too. We did everything we wanted and it was all close. Pier really really close, but we skipped that to go to universal a couple of days later.
