It’s a great location and a decent motel. But parking is very challenging even with a pass. Overall, I’d consider staying here again - clean and friendly.

It was so close to the Santa Monica Pier and Muscle Beach. Property was pretty and well kept. Our rooms were spacious. There is no aircondition but it didn't bother us as weather was cool and they had a fan. It was a little loud in the area at night but we did have window open. We felt safe during day but when we walked home at night, there were quite a few characters that we were watching out for. That's not hotel issue but just nature of the area.
