The room and property were wonderful!
There is no AC but by opening windows and the fans in the room, the room cooled off nicely. Also, this was the end of the road for our Route66 trip and the pier was in walking distance to get our picture at the End Of The Trail sign.
We would stay here again.
The staff was very friendly ,Alisha was very nice and helpful loved are stay but the only thing we didn’t like was No air condition it was very hot ,
Thank you Lisa Werling
Love the retro architecture of the motel.
The interior was reinovated.
The staff was very helpful!
We would choose this motel again when we visit LA!!😀
Honestly, this cute little hotel was worth the stay. Very close to the beach and the freeway.
The parking was easy and secure. The hotel is close to restaurants, stores and Mel's Dinner. The room was big enough, and the beds were comfy. We loved our stay there!
Conveniently located. Rooms were clean but small. Staff were friendly and beds were comfortable. The free e-bikes were a nice bonus. Worth a stay for a night or two to explore Santa Monica and Venice.
It is an older motel but amazingly maintained. Room was super clean and the ladies on the front desk were so friendly and helpful. We were able to leave our car here and walked to Venice Beach and to the Santa Monica Pier. We would definitely come back.
The hotel staff are excellent and professional. They care about their clients and go above and beyond to help them with problems large and small. I would stay there again and would recommend Hotel Santa Monica to others very highly!
Cute place with nice rooms. No A/C when there's a heat wave in LA is not good. Very uncomfortable even in Santa Monica. The shared patio is odd and guests are right outside your door/window making privacy non-existent. Not much walkable for dining so plan to drive or Uber. Not my return choice but again cute.
The Motel is about 20 min. walking distance from Santa Monica Beach and it felt safe to be there and to park the car. The biggest draw back for us was that there is NO AC. It being July, we had to leave the window open which then made it very loud in the room since Lincoln Blvd. is a very busy street. The room looked newly renovated and clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Overall it is a good lodging option, but with $300 and no amenities it is overpriced in my opinion.
Everybody was super nice, they made sure it was okay with me to clean my room. I had zero problems with such a fun trip!! 100% coming back to this hotel next time im there 😋
Pleasantly surprised with my stay. The room itself was clean and updated. Had all the amenities needed - microwave, fridge, desk and chair. Stay was during early June so the weather was cool. Didn’t find a way to get the AC to work but the overhead fan did fine enough to move air around the room. Snacks were available in the lobby from 7-9 (coffee, fruit cups, juice, tea, oatmeal) just simple things. Shower water pressure was decent and the water was hot.
