The motel is like a trip down memory lane back to the 50s and 60s. It's the type of motel you see in movies from that era, built around an asphalt court/parking area. However, it's clearly been updated over the years and the rooms have a beach vibe. It also had all the amenities we wanted, including things like shampoo, conditioner, lotion and hand soap, an ironing board and iron, refrigerator, and hair dryer. The beds were comfortable, and the room was quiet. As others have noted, the entire staff was friendly and helpful. The room had no air conditioning and was steaming when we entered, but among the sea breezes, multiple fans available, and screened windows, it cooled down quickly and nicely.

The staff were extremely helpful and polite. The rooms were spacious, location on Lincoln Boulevard was excellent and within walking distance of Mexican food joint & Burger/Japanese food stalls on the same side of the road . The beach is approximately 15 minutes walk through residential area ( Bay Street) but was safe to walk even at 8 PM in the evening . The only distraction were while walking on the Lincoln Boulevard, we encountered a few homeless but they were polite enough to ask for one or two dollars from us. Otherwise they were nice and did not bother us. Entire area was safe and enjoyable . The motel had spacious parking and one can park his car just in front of his room. We enjoyed our stay at this motel. Only negative point is that hotel tariff is little expensive.

Excellent value room, very close to the Santa Monica beach and Pier. If you like to walk, Venice beach is also easy to reach. I felt that I lacked nothing in the room; plus it was very clean and very comfortable. The staff were very nice, helpful, and flexible -- in particular, Laura, helped accommodate every single request I had, which was extremely helpful beause I had received some distressing news just before arrival. Her help settling me in helped me feel better and get my problem sorted out with a cool head.

The room was absolutely lovely!! Exactly as it was pictured. The staff was very courteous, professional and kind. Alisha (the night shift) and Lauren (in the morning) were very informative and helpful. They went above and beyond to help with any concerns we had. Our stay was wonderful! Sadly, it was just for one night, but we will definitely be back! The area was perfect.. close to many attractions and sites on the West Side of LA. We felt secure and comfortable. And having a parking space for our rental was a huge selling point! Thank you!

Very cosy and pretty Motel, located perfectly. The room was very clean, nicely decorated and modern. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Parking was very convenient and for free, a great advantage. Very good value for the good quality. We would come there again. In the neighborhood you can find a gas station, good options for dinner (we were advised to eat at Pita place 2 blocks away, was amazing!). The Santa Monica beach is just few min drive from the Motel. Thanks for hospitality!

The kind woman at the front desk gave me a great room. It was spotless and the decor is really nice. Windows let in a cool breeze and it is quiet at the back of the motel.

It’s the first time I stayed at the motel, and this place is lovely. The guests should read what they offer before they book, instead of asking them when you arrive because they provide exactly what they write on the booking page. It’s safe, clean, staff is friendly, kind and helpful, they do their best to make you comfortable. The rooms are on the back side is very silent which we love it. There is no fee for parking.

A great wee motel in a good location, a short walk to the Santa Monica pier. Great to have parking on site. Friendly staff who were helpful!

Convenient location close to the airport & walking distance to Santa Monica beach & pier, restaurants etc. Although dated on the outside the room was spacious with lovely linen & towels, microwave, tea & coffee & a little fridge. Our room was very quiet well back from the Highway & the staff were super friendly. A little breakfast was included & they stored our luggage for the day. Highly recommend
