    Nice hotel, clean and very good location. A bit overpriced for what it is.

    The fact that my room had no view.

    Great location. Nice hotel, but I was placed in a room without a view of the ocean, the reason I chose this hotel.

    Fab location, friendly staff
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Queen Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The price is steep for the room category, but in keeping with the rates of the area and with a better location than many others. The side rooms are a bit dark in the day so I wouldn't want to work from there, however Mud/Wtr is a co-working/cafe space nearby should the need have arisen.

    The location is perfect - right opposite Santa Monica beach and only a few steps from the eateries and boutiques on Main Street. The room has everything you need, including a coffee machine, and the bed is comfy. You enter the rooms via a secure gate which meant I felt safe during my stay. Important as a solo female traveller. I checked in with Chris and he was super helpful and accommodating. It was good to be able to leave my luggage after check-out and I noticed the staff locked the office if they left it, even briefly, so it felt secure.

    Beds were a little hard for me and we had to pay for parking

    Location was outstanding - across street to Santa Monica Beach and short distance to pier. Good jumping off point for going north along highway 1. Dogtown Coffee two blocks away for great coffee, and many good restaurants within walking distance. Room and bathroom were in great condition. Place was quiet. Courtyard was very pleasant.

    Needed more coffee pods for waking up - really not a grumble but I do like 2 coffees before I leave for the day. That's really all I could think of for the "What didn't you like" section

    Not much to not like - fabulous view from our room to the front. With a little table and chairs to enjoy the afternoon sun with a wine and cheese. Room good sized for 2 of us in very comfortable queen sized beds.. My friend and I slept so well. Reception staff were both very helpful, and friendly

    I was woken on the first night at 2.00am by staff moving large bins of laundry across the yard right outside our room. This was very noisy. Although the room and bathroom had been renovated, the furniture was hadn't and was very tired/ dated.

    Very clean, bright room, which had recently been decorated and had a newly renovated bathroom and a very good shower. Although on the small side the bed was very comfortable. Location was excellent and the staff were very good.

    No view from our room & housekeeping only came in once (not a problem - just didn’t know) Car park was convenient but pricey - think it was average for the area

    Great location near the beach, beach accessories to borrow - like chairs, parasols & body boards plus beach towels.
