Had an awesome experience staying at this location. We were able to have free parking for our rental and walk to everything in Santa Monica and Venice beach. A 5 min walk to the beach. Rooms were comfortable and front desk was kind and accommodating when we left something after checkout. Will stay here again our next trip to CA

Great visit

My daughter and I visted for her birthday and it was a fun trip. Its actually a great little spot. Can be noisy with the "frat" like parties across the street, but the noise did not bother us however it did give us some great entertainment.

Beautiful beach bungalow

We were able to upgrade to a bigger suite for a small fee and were blown away by how spacious the small apartment was: a bedroom with 2 queen beds, full kitchen, dining room, and living room with a massive sectional sleeper sofa, and a lovely, peaceful patio. High ceilings made it feel even bigger. Staff was super friendly and had boogie boards, beach towels, chairs, and umbrellas on hand to lend. Just a couple blocks to a great beach and all kinds of food and entertainment.

Perfect location! Charming Motel!

This is a great motel in a very convenient spot if traveling to Santa Monica. It is old, and you can tell that, but it is well maintained and almost nostalgic in appearance. Nestled into a “nook” on Main Street makes this a perfect place if you are just stopping for a night, or staying for a few. The location is close to a few good eateries, right next to a coffee shop, and just a few blocks to the beach. The pier is also a short walk away. Rooms were clean; the age show here as there is a general musty smell, not dirty, just reminded me of a “vintage” closet. We had a suite, it was perfect for us - traveling with two teenage boys this allowed for one to have a pull out couch rather than stuffing them both into a shared queen. The kitchen was stocked with adequate supplies to include a full coffee pot, though that was on its last leg because the burner was literally burnt to a crisp and flaking off (definitely needs to be swapped out). Pillows and towels is where this place falls short. If you like a fluffy pillow and a fluffy towel this is not your motel. The pillows are flat foam rubber, which is extremely uncomfortable. Towels and washcloths are very thin, but still did the job. Overall, this is about a two star motel, but convenience, location, overall cleanliness, and nostalgic charm gives it at a 4-star on hotels.com. I would 100% stay here again without a doubt, and definitely recommend it for anyone traveling through the area.

Great 1960’s SoCal beachy motel. All the necessary amenities. Very clean. New, double-glazed windows kept the room quiet. Very affordable. Close, delicious food of all kinds.

Dirty. !!! Really dirty. There were chips in the bed. I asked for new sheets and blanket and had to make the bed myself. Horribly uncomfortable bed, noisy, threadbare ripped sheets and towels, and I’m not a large person and the towel didn’t even cover my body. Mould in the bathroom. This place is so shabby and not worth the price. Very disappointing. Would not recommend.

So close to the beach and less than 10 minute walk to Santa Monica Pier. The location is accessible to everything, fast food, gourmet food and goodies. There is activity outside until in the early am, since it’s a popular spot to hang out, but safe.
