Arrived very late 3am. Anywhere sounded good. Came to Santa Monica motel didn't look the nicest but I had to sleep. Got in our room and the latch lock on the door had been busted off from someone previously breaking into it. So we pushed the disgusting couch in front of the door to feel a little safer. The comforters... More

I stayed here for a week and it was not too bad. I was in room 12, back left corner, no road noise at all. The room was clean and comfortable, close to budget restaurants, transport as well as a great bar just across the road. Not the best place I've stayed in nor was it the worst and i... More

We didn't enjoy our stay in this hotel at all! Although marketed as a budget location we stayed in some far nicer cheaper accommodation than this during our travels in the US. For example Motel 6 is budget but at least it is adequately furnished and cheap unlike this motel. For starters there was 1 rickety working fan in the... More

Well we felt very unsafe at this motel. I also asked if there was coffee to my surprise I was told there was a Star Bucks down the street. I had to ask for toilet paper and no tissues or phone in the room. We ask for an extra pillow and was told they have none so our kid had... More

We pre booked this motel for a "cheap" stay in Santa Monica therefore we didn’t have any real expectations but we couldn’t stay here, the main being is we felt un safe and didn’t want to leave any of our belongings in the room as the security was worse than poor!! I don’t like giving negative reviews but I feel... More

Not at any price, thank you. The rooms are dirty and there are strange comings and goings throughout the night. The front windows could be simply lifted out and in the bathroom, where there were more tiles missing than in place the window wouldn't close. Felt vulnerable and was relieved to see daylight the next morning, get up, get out... More
