The area was fantastic , clean , quiet . The perfect place to relax and enjoy the beach . Snacks every morning for breakfast , unlimited coffee at any time . Friendly staff, no issues whatsoever with this place
Beds and room were nice. But some simple fixes could have made this better
- bathroom sink looks like it was tore off wall so repaired about 80%. Quick plaster and paint and would have been perfect.
- ‘Breakfast included’ was false. Be more accurate. 3 granola bars, oatmeal packs and some fruit isn’t even continental breakfast.
- no creamer for coffee. Desk said ‘waiting on delivery’. Cream is $5 at store. One of the three front desk people sitting around, get up and go get it.
Excellent location though. Rest was good.
Such a cute little hotel right on the beach! We got the upgraded room with the balcony. Room was clean and has microwave, mini fridge, and smart tv so you can log into netflix if you wish. Hotel doesnt have many amenities like a gym or pool or anything but the view and relaxing ambiance makes up for it. They have a water machine in the lobby. We had a wonderful stay and the staff was so nice and accommodating! It has complimentary parking, is right next door to the cheesecake factory and is a few minute drive from venice beach. Would definitely stay again!

The staff was amazing!
The facility is run down and the room wasn’t very clean. While it serviced its purpose and the location is great I likely wouldn’t stay again due to feeling like it wasn’t clean enough for me.
My partner and our son stayed here for 3 nights in August. The hotel staff were friendly and efficient, our room was spacious and comfortable (with a lovely balcony overlooking the marina) and the free parking lot was incredibly useful. Great value, would recommend!
I had some cleaning issues but nothing that could “end” my weekend! We had an especial time at the hotel is very well located! We love to watch the sunrise from our balcony room!
This place is perfect if you just want an affordable place by the water and don’t need anything fancy. It’s a great location and the staff were kind enough to let us use the parking lot before check in so we could just explore the area. The rooms are definitely pretty worn out though (holes/stains in the sheets) but comfortable enough.
