We didn't start very well at this place as we arrived at 1:30am and had to deal with the unpleasant man who does the reception night shift. Initial problems included - 1. no parking (he abruptly told us "first come first served" so we parked on the street) 2. very steep stairs to the room made it difficult to carry the bags and no assistance offered from the unpleasant man 3. the key didn't work well (this was a recurring problem - see other reviews) 4. the main room light didn't work 5. the unbelievable road noise all day and night. After a couple of nights they managed to relocate us from from an outside to an inside room which was better but smaller. Continuing further problems included - 1. sheet didn't fit the bed so every night it was untucked 2. soap didn't foam so we bought our own 3. sink was blocked (but the plumber was pleasant) 4. Sliding door was stuck on the wardrobe and sliding window also didn't work properly.

Good points of this place - 1. day time staff are very nice 2. maids are also nice 3. free coffee is good 4. free and fast internet 5. location is OK but not as good as we expected as it was too far to walk to the beach (this was my own fault for not enough research). 5. Nice fridge.

We chose this place as we though it was a good location. However since we were unable to walk to the beach we might as well have stayed somewhere a lot cheaper since we had a rental car. In conclusion, I couldn't recommend this place. As I write this review I am in a Motel 6 which is half the price and twice the value.

Yeah this place was cheap. Where do i start? The parking lot was small..Our AC wouldn't turn on. The TV was a no name knock off that had cable but picked up 10 channels. Our rooms door looked like it had been kicked in and someone jimmied the lock and scratched up the paint trying. The restroom is extreamly tiny, dirty and smelled weird. When the top/next door neighbors flushed a toilet/showered we could hear the water moving in the pipes(water hammer?) There is an alley behind the hotel so expect traffic, dump trucks and trash trucks. I would probably not stay here again unless it was less than $50 a night...but it was almost double...

Stayed here a few year ago, and coming from Ireland where there are no motels, I expected them to be awful, like in movies etc.
We stayed in the SM motel and had to check out it was so bad, but when we came up here, it was a much cheaper rate, and the rooms were clean, tidy, NOT smelly and the guy on reception was lovely.

we stayed here for 5 nights and I would definitely recommend it to other young couples. It was the perfect distance from the beach too. (we hired bikes and cycled)
Clean,
Good Service,
Good Sleep Quality,
Good Location!
Great Price!

Thank you Ocean Park Inn. You have done it again!! I visit Southern California 3-4 times a year
and this place has been the only place I stay in. I recently visited my family over the 4th of July weekend. The Place is very clean with new furniture and back units are very elegant. I love the idea of having two different WFI systems. When I was in my room one of them gave the best signal and when I was in the court yard the other WFI gave me the better signal.
Traveling with two kids is not easy but having a spacious and clean room surely helps.
Thank you Ocean Park. We will be back soon.......
