Older but clean and charming motel, good location

This is an older motel with older furnishings, but charming and clean. The beds were comfortable, and the linens and whole place smelled fresh and clean. We stayed in a one bedroom, and our 22 year old son slept on a pull-out couch in the living room, which worked fine other than morning light coming in the living room window. Our unit had a kitchen, which we didn't really need for this visit. I noticed it wasn't well supplied (in terms of dishes) for extensive cooking during a long stay, fyi. Our unit also had a nice deck, and we loved the flowers along the walkway to our unit. It turns out we didn't need the free parking, but that is a very nice perk. Great location for our needs and we appreciated the friendly reception!
pretty flowers on the way to our unit
Entry area is behind a locked security gate, which is nice

Lovely little place! It was clean, safe, and the manager and his cute little dog were very friendly. It was close to all the best restaurants and a block from the beach. We will definitely book another stay here in the future. :)

Cute, cozy motel - walk to beach & delicious food

Friendly staff provides beach towels and chairs when you walk to beautiful Santa Monica beach. Room is really clean and cozy. Classic style motel. Delicious all-vegan restaurants or vegan options within walking distance. THE BEST vegan donuts I've ever had at Holey Grail just down the street.

Absolutely blown away! I didn’t go with high hopes but this property exceeded my expectations in every department. I stayed here in April for a weekend. Big clean room, clean bathroom with a lot of towels and toiletries, and great shower pressure. King size bed was comfortable and the room had a chair, tv, a table, cupboard and nightstands. Now the two absolute best features of this property: 1- FREE on-site parking (up to 80$ at other properties in the area per day on top of the room rates). 2- AMAZING location! Beach is 10 min by foot, 5 min drive or on bike. Property is surrounded by restaurants and other stores. There’s a great cafe on location for your morning coffee fix (a lot of locals were seen here too). On Sunday, I got to see the farmers market right across from the motel. 10 min drive to Venice beach! The staff here was very friendly. They treated me with respect and kindness. Whenever I visit LA again, this is where I will stay. Highly recommended!
