Small room but that is because of the age(1938). It was spotless & smelled fresh & clean. It was quiet & peaceful & a very good price for the location (close to many little cafés & Walgreens a block away).

Room is ok, very small. Older dated small motel. Staff nice. They use old fashion keys. It is literally next to a jack in the box drive thru. Felt insecure and would not do that again.

It's an unassuming place sandwiched between a Jack-in-the-Box and a residential neighborhood, but don't let the location fool you. It's a lovely old-school motel with very clean rooms and a comfortable bed. Since it is an older place, the rooms are small, and a large person may have problems with the size of the bathroom and shower. The courtyard, however, makes up for any lack of space. Tucked in behind the main building, the courtyard is private, quiet, and has lovingly maintained landscaping. It's walkable to the Santa Monica waterfront, and there's access to public transportation. Plus, the Piccolo Italian restaurant just around the corner is AMAZING! I'll certainly stay here again when I revisit Santa Monica.

Good location and value

Very good value as it is a short Uber ride or scooter ride from the Santa Monica Pier. The front desk attendant was very friendly and welcoming. Would stay here again on my next trip to Santa Monica/Venice Beach.
