We had such a wonderful stay at the green ginger guest house. I was amazed at how quiet it was, even though it was in such a large metropolitan city. Gloria was a wonderful person to work with, and we will definitely stay there again in the future.

This was The Best Value for a Hotel I've ever had! It's a one room Palace with all the amenities you'll ever need. Perfect Location, in the heart of the Playa Del Ray Neighborhood of Venice Beach. Very Ritzy area. Staff was EXCELLENT. Super helpful and Hospitable. Family Owned and Operated. You feel Loved right when you walk through the door. Can't say enough about this place. They don't have anything close to this in Detroit for the price. I've stayed at several awesome Hotels in my short stay so far in LA. All of them were great in their own way but this place is Above and Beyond. You won't regret staying here, I promise.

The place was clean but not 5 star. If you are not on the top floor be prepared to hear a lot of walking, water running, and talking from upstairs. The only sink to wash dishes was the bathroom. Double check which room you are booking. Average

Get the travel insurance for this place because refunds are not given when you get Covid, even when you notify them more than 48 hours prior. Expedia staff said they attempted to contact them multiple times on two different days and no staff could be reached. No refund being given, so I should receive an email with directions on how to get my key, right? Nope. Nothing but being told I’m harassing them via email. Again, get travel insurance! I have average scores on the property since I didn’t see it.
