Friendly Motel Near the Pier
A very friendly, well maintained and presented 50s motel in the heart of Santa Monica, a short walk to the pier and the shopping district. The room I stayed in was HUUUGE with a full kitchen. The bathroom was small but the shower was hot and powerful. Some of the tiles were a bit damaged - I don't know if they were the original ones but they could have been! The whole place was spotlessly clean. There were a couple of maintenance niggles - one of the bedside lamps wasn't working and the security bolt thing on the door was loose and wouldn't have been any use were an unexpected visitor to come knocking. The pool area is lovely and the pool is heated year round, so had I had time, I would DEFINITELY have been swimming during my February trip! Everybody working there was super-friendly. I have to say, that has not always been my experience in LA. If I was to visit Santa Monica again, I would absolutely stay at Cal Mar Hotel Suites again. I can't put it better than that.

The best part is the big living room and kitchen, even though the pots and pans are a little beaten, but they are sufficient, especially the small knife for fruits. The towels and bed sheets need to be more clean and dry. The towels are moist. The location is great. Overall we really enjoyed the stay!

This is a great find in the heart of Santa Monica. Close to the pier and the promenade. Friendly staff, clean rooms, full kitchen so you can get groceries at the markets close by.
