Guest Reviews
- Kalliopi (10/5): Η ε - Πολύ καθαρό κατάλυμα, άψογο και ευγενέστατο προσωπικό , καθημερινή καθαριότητα, στάση μπροστά στο ξενοδοχείο.
- Thi (8/5): -
- Grethe (8/5): -
- Daria (7/5): Decent - Nice location, good cleaning service, renewed Room too small, the soak was hanging on the opposite wall from the sink which was uncomfortable, as well as the toilet paper - too far behind, hard to reach.
- audrey (6/5): Sympa et bien situé - Un grand tapis de bain
Parking accessible facilement
Localisation géographique plutôt pas mal
Lit confortable
Accueil sympa
Possibilité de remise des clés le matin même tôt malgré le fait que l’hôtel est fermé Le frigo ne fonctionnait pas
Il y a eu du bruit jusque tard donc pas très bien insonorisé
Parking payant
Pas de piscine
Il manque une table de chevet de l’autre côté du lit
Les volets ne ferment pas assez bien et le jour passe. Avec des rideaux ça résoudrait le problème
La douche : quand on met le pommeau en route, l’eau continue à couler comme si on allait prendre un bain donc l’eau s’accumule dans la baignoire
- Margaret (1/5): Uninhabitable - When we got there the hotel had no power. Staff did help to relocate us Electricity would have been nice
- tiziano (8/5): Verblijf was ok - Prima kamers Verbouwing en prijs
- Hager (10/5): Au TOP ! - Le personnel très aimable !
- Dennis (10/5): - They had friendly staff and clean rooms.
- Tilek (10/5): -
- Mark (8/5): - Clean, tidy and good location. The powercut & the renovation work.
- Flavio (6/5): -
- Attila (10/5): - Perfetkná lokalita Veľmi skromné raňajky ,prijali by sme trošku viac
- Zakaria (10/5): -
- Yoshiaki (9/5): -
- Andersen (4/5): Disappointing - very convenient location, nice breakfast Toilet much too low; construction noise. second floor was opened too soon -- should have waited till construction finished. Stayed here several times before bur very disappointed this time
- Kirstin (9/5): - Modern clean facilities. Reception is being upgraded but that didn't impact our stay at all. Paid parking, this could have been an included cost as I felt like the price was a little higher than other accommodation close by
- Patricia (10/5): Nice hotel. Will definitely stay again. - Location was perfect for our needs. Room was very clean. The lobby is under construction but that did not impact our stay. Underground parking was a plus. The breakfast was ok. Prepackaged cereal and bars. The pancake machine was a big hit though!
- Dennis (7/5): -
- Alan (4/5): -
- Vivek (3/5): extremely overpriced for the experience - rooms were good but property was under renovation and it was very bad the breakfast was pathetic. for the money we paid we felt the property is very costly
- Géraldine (9/5): Très bien - Parking sur place, propre, confortable, cafetière en chambre. Situation.
Séjour très agréable. Peut être varier un peu plus de petit déjeuner
- Mohrah (7/5): - Location Stuff
- Rafael (9/5): Quarto muito bom - Quarto grande e atende as expectativas. Cama é muito boa. O quarto possui cafeteira. O café da manhã é grátis. Possui estacionamento no sub solo. O hotel está passando por reforma na recepção e andar térreo. Durante horário comercial, você precisa fazer uma rota que as vezes passa no meio da obra ou precisa contornar por fora do hotel. Ele fica bem distante do píer e as ruas em volta podem ser vazias à noite.
- דרור (7/5): -
- Jodie (10/5): Suoer comfy - Great central hun for exploring the coast, bus stop right out the fron lot very convinient N/a
- Matteo (7/5): -
- Faramarz (9/5): Great value in a good location - location and value
- David (8/5): -
- Kiymet (8/5): -
- Petr (8/5): - Přestože je uváděno, že hotel nenabízí snídaně, byla každé ráno k dispozici káva, čaj, vajíčka, mléko, jogurty, banány, palačinky atd. Výběr sice omezený, ale dostačující. Celkem klidná lokalita a podzemní parkoviště výhodou. Pokoje čisté a postele pohodlné. Cena parkovného. Před cestou jsem se díval na odpovědi hotelu ohledně ceny parkovného, kde uváděli 15$ + tax. Nám bylo účtováno 23$ včetně taxy. Hotel si za parkování zablokoval na platebnéí kartě ještě o 107$ víc a nyní musím měsíc čekat, než mi Revolut těchto 107$ vrátí.
- Islam (9/5): parfait - La literie et l'emplacement
Le professionnalisme de l'équipe et ce à tous les niveaux. rien à signaler
- daniela (8/5): - Zona tranquilla, camera pulita e staff cordiale La colazione minimale
- Yip Yee (9/5): -
- Romina (10/5): Cómodo y cercano a zonas de interés - Es cómodo El desayuno que ofrecen es un poco raro.. en el lobby, te sientas donde haya lugar. Opciones escasas.
- Andreas (10/5): Klasse Hotel - immer wieder - Tolle, nette Begrüßung - Parkplatz- gepflegtes Zimmer - mit dem Bus in 5 min am Santa Monica Beach
- Ivan (7/5): Quiet Stay in Santa Monica - The hotel is located in a calm and quiet area, not too far from Santa Monica Pier.
Clean towels provided every day, cozy room with a usable little terrace/balcony.
Helpful staff, free breakfast included in the price.
Each floor has vending/snack machines available, which is convenient. The hotel is currently undergoing renovations, so some areas are inaccessible and construction work is visible during the day.
The gym is quite small.
- Diana (9/5): Would stay here again - The hotel is well located and beds are comfortable and it’s clean Everything was great. Just the construction makes it a bit confusing where to check in and check out. But it’s part of their growing pains. It was “figureoutable”
- Victor (8/5): -
- Winzer (10/5): -
- Jana (10/5): -
- Thierry (7/5): - aucune salle de restaurant pour le petit-déjeuner.
piètre qualité du petit-déjeuner.
- Sandra (8/5): -
- Sara (8/5): Big room in a safe convenient spot - A nice big room. Friendly staff. Good location for getting public transport to downtown Santa Monica and LA. There was a complimentary breakfast - unexpected but offered a decent range of options to fuel you up for the day ( fresh fruit, pancakes, cereals etc). Noisy fridge and air con but didn't stop us sleeping
- Laurel (10/5): Clean, comfortable, convenient -
- Karla (10/5): Buena ubicación, muy tranquilo - El personal muy amable, y atentos a cualquier duda o consulta, la habitacion era muy comoda. Y tenia excelente ubicacion muy central en Santa Monica Lo unico malo que habia un radiador o ventilador que sonaba todo el dia y toda la noche.
Algunas veces era desagradable el ruido, y el espacio para el desayuno era muy pequeño.
- Bob (8/5): -
- Reid (8/5): - Breakfast choices were quite limited. No decaf coffee was one example.
- Sarah (10/5): Had a lovely time, will choose this place to stay if we visit Santa Monica again - bed was really comfortable, the view was amazing and it was very quiet. The cleanliness was exceptional menu selection was limited

- Julie-Anne (7/5): Nice hotel and staff, and nearby easy transport access to get places. - The hotel was clean, staff were lovely. We didn't have breakfast on our booking but it was included and was a pleasant surprise and a good start to the day. On a good bus route to get places easily. Fridge in room that we could use and this was great to store all our soft drinks in - much needed after a day out. I dislike having towels changed every day due to the environmental impact. We left the sign on the door saying we didn't need service, but the room was cleaned and towels changed every day. Not enough seating in the lobby for breakfast diners and weather not always nice enough to sit outside. No view from our room, other than the room opposite. Close to 2 main roads, so quite noisy. Was a little too far from the beach - my mistake for not researching before booking. There is a machine in the room to make hot drinks, with tea bags and coffee sachets - but no milk, or milk alternative. I did ask at reception one evening when I was desperate for a cuppa but was told milk was only available in the mornings. The toilets in the reception area are kept locked so you have to ask staff to let you in.
- Soizic (7/5): Bon séjour, hôtel propre, simple, bien situé. Bon rapport qualité/prix. - Bonne situation dans la ville, chambres propres et bien équipées. Bon rapport qualité prix Petit déjeuner : peu de choix, pas de pain, seulement des pancakes. Locaux pas adaptés (pas de coin réservé, pas de table)
- Mochabob (10/5): - The staff was professional and kind. Santiago was a help and friend at breakfast yesterday.

- Robert Čupić (1/5): Razočaranje - Pozicija i hotel su u redu, osoblje je u redu kao i čistoća. Ali ljudi moji, pišu da je doručak uključen, kad ono za doručak žilave i gumene palačinke koje morate sami ispeći a nemate gdje sjesti za pojesti. Sokova bi bilo bolje da nema jer su totalno umjetni, sama kemija,, nema toasta niti ičeg sličnog, samo banane i jabuke. A nemate gdje ni sjesti, imaju 3 dizajnerska stolića s foteljama, i ako je sve puno, onda vas pošalju vani, skoro pa na ulicu, da tamo jedete. A najbliža zalogajnica ili market su udaljeni tko zna koliko. Pa neću gladan najranije ujutro, okolo po kvartu tražiti hranu. Budite pošteni pa kažite kako nema doručka, a ne nakon što vam platim rezervaciju, da tražim drugi hotel. Loše i nepošteno. Izbjegavati osim ako ne planirate nositi svoju hranu, kao mi ostale dane.

- Sofia (7/5): - Muy cómoda la habitación y el personal excelente Escaso desayuno
- Silrey (7/5): Decent - Clean property They charge $23.00 for parking
- Lalani (9/5): - Everything is good
- Louise (9/5): -
- Rosen (10/5): -
- John R 3010 (8/5): Gateway Santa Monica - The room was large with a great sized bed. I had no negative experiences at all
- Heidi (9/5): -
- Ethem (8/5): -
- Gustavo (9/5): - Cama confortável, estacionamento ótimo
- Gonzalez (10/5): muy agradable - desayuno bien y ubicacion excelente
- Jose (9/5): Nos - Las habitaciones son amplias y muy nuevas.
La camada es muy grande y cómoda. Aunque el alojamiento está a un paseo de la playa tienes un bus que coges enfrente del hotel y te lleva directo. Las zonas comunes son muy básicas para el precio elevado que se paga por el hotel. El desayuno es muy mejorable.
- Stefan (7/5): Für Kurzaufenthalt gut geeignet - Kostenloses, wenn auch einfaches Frühstück.
Nach meiner Einschätzung eher sichere Gegend
Für L.A. Verhältnisse
- Brenda (10/5): - La cama

- Alex (9/5): -
- Guy (8/5): Top !! - Dikke duim voor het personeel! Zeer vriendelijk!
- Freddy (7/5): Bien. - La ubicación, limpieza. El desayuno.
- Michelle (8/5): Great stay - no major complaints. I'd stay again! - Good location - convenient to all things on the westside. The bed was AMAZING. So comfortable. I slept great! Loved the pillows and i didn't itch with the sheets, which is usually the case at hotels for me. The windows have shutters on them, and I liked that. It's cleaner than curtains and blacked out the room nicely. Also, the hotel was really quiet, despite having a room that was right off the elevators and not on the top floor. I thought the coffee in the morning with yogurt and a banana one day and hard boiled eggs the next was perfect. I'm not a huge breakfast person, so it was just right for me. I also liked that they had a small fitness room across the driveway. Seemed like a mix of younger and middle-aged beach types and international travelers. The elevators are really slow. If you get back late at night and park on P2, you can't access the elevator and someone has to come get you. That's a little weird. Also, my toilet was dirty when I arrived in my room. I always carry Lysol wipes with me, so I wiped down the seat, but the lid was dirty too, soI just left it up. The pulley to have the water from the faucet push to the shower head was not working well either, and I had to get a towel to pull really hard on it to get the water to come out of the shower head.
- Mari (9/5): Meeldiv koht paraja hinnaga - Personal oli meeldiv, hotell oli puhas. Pakuti ka tasuta väikest hommikusööki, mida hinnas algselt ei olnud. Parkimine kohe maja all Natuke làrmakas, kuna asub suure tee ääres
- Lucy (10/5): -
- Julia Barbara (9/5): Schönes Hotel in Santa Monica - Das Hotel war sehr schön, die Zimmer haben uns gut gefallen und sie waren modern.
Das Personal war auch sehr nett und hilfsbereit.
Ich würde es wieder buchen. Das Hotel bietet ein kleines Frühstück an, der Bereich ist aber nicht sehr groß. Es gibt nur ein Sofa und zwei Sessel, wo man frühstücken konnte.
Man braucht ein Auto, da der Pier zu Fuß nur nach 40 min. Laufen zu erreichen ist
- Kourey (8/5): Most comfortable beds ever. Clean rooms, good location - Easy access, quick check in. $23 parking
- Baumberger (10/5): -
- Cloé (5/5): -
- Maxim (7/5): - Location Parking is $25/day
- Mihaela (8/5): -
- Miguel (8/5): Muy bien pero cuando me devuelvan lo retenido mejor jaja - Mu buena ubicación, buena habitación y muy bien Lo que no me gustó, es que aún tienen dinero retenido que cuando vas te piden 100 dólares retenidos que te los devuelven cuando te vas, pues me fui el 20 de marzo y aún no me lo han devuelto… Y además de eso lo que no me gustó fue el desayuno menos mal que no pague de más que iba incluido en la habitación porque qué decepción.
- Milagros (8/5): Bonito y en ubicación muy segura - Estaba muy limpio y la ubicación es preciosa El parking era muy caro y tuvimos que optar por dejarlo en la calle.
- Matheus (10/5): excelente estedia - melhor cama que ja tivemos. quarto espacoso, silencioso, otima regiao! chuveiro poderia ter mais pressao.
