To be honest, I don't think this place is as bad as the other reviews say. Maybe I got the good room, maybe the place is starting to get its act together, or maybe I'm just not used to the luxurious places, who knows. In all fairness, $50/night for a place thats 2 minutes from the Santa Monica Pier is... more

This was our first trip to mainland US and we were looking for reasonable priced but comfortable accommodation for 2 nights. The location was ok but there were many problems: (1) there was not even a glass in the motel room for my husband to put water into when taking his medication; (2) the shower may have been hot but... more

Rude staff, awful unclean rooms, broken lights, urine stained towels, mould filled showers, dangerous wiring and... to be honest... i'm supprised one of us haven't been killed yet - once you cross over the bridge from santa monica into lincoln blvd you better watch your back. more

Warning: The stories about broken locks and dirty smelly rooms are unfortunately all true. I paid $49.00 for each night and I knew it wans't going to be the four seasons but at least I thougt the place would be clean. My girl friend's eyes were all red after she took a shower there and there were hand prints on... more

This place was so unsafe! The chain on the door was missing, and the widows did not lock. There was no air conditioning, no screens on the windows, and the room was run down and dirty. The other guests were seedy and questionable. I felt very unsafe and vulnerable. It was like a motel that rented "by the hour," if... more

It is a very budget motel and the lowest price in the santa monica city. It provided with free parking and the rooms are as good as expected from the low prices. Staffs are friendly and not too many problems seen to really complain about. It's best for a low price motel that would save money for other things and... more

Please see photos for confirmation - the chain lock on the room was ripped off, so we requested another room. As the photos show, there were bugs in the shower and a tear in the window screen. The tear wouldn't be so bad, but this motel has no air conditioning. Also, the toilet handle fell off the first time we... more

Please, please do NOT even consider staying here. I couldn't find anywhere else in Santa Monica as I arrived towards the evening and had no reservations. This place was recommended by the receptionist in the Pacific Sands Motel (I suspect that they might be under the same ownership - see the reviews for that place too). I should have trusted... more

Avoid this place at all costs if you don't believe me call the Santa Monica Police and ask them about this rat hole and i mean rat hole. This is A SAFE AREA but this place is the pits and the people that run it are nasty and unfriendly. DON'T STAY AT THIS PLACE! more
