The property was great for the price. It's older, and things are rundown, but it suited our needs for the time that we were there. We stayed in room 102, which didn't have the full kitchenette, but it was in the corner, which gave us more privacy. The staff allowed us to have a late checkout, which was nice. If you want nice and new, this isn't your place...if you want affordable and decent, then stay here.

Nice Stay- Nice room

Reception was friendly and inviting. They did place us in a room we didn’t really want and tried not to ask for in an indirect way but didn’t catch on to possible better option. Room was updated and clean. Newer washroom and tiled floors. Lots to do in the area and had a cute courtyard with flowers and palms and pool with seating outside. Front had an adjoining restaurant and lounge area which we wanted to try but didn’t get to. Quiet night and no noise. Good beds that had 2 queen which is not typical so that was nice! Would recommend! Only down side was they didn’t get me a receipt so it’s hard to know if they are charging you extra or going with the price online. Didn’t have tap feature for paying.

I typically do not write reviews yet want to offer an honest one to prevent anyone else from disappointment. I’ll start with the few positives. Venice beach is a short, easy drive down the road. Downtown Venice is also a short drive away. Location is convenient. The pool appeared well maintained and was quiet. The place gets the job done for a reasonable price for a weekend getaway. Now for the negatives. I booked this place for my husband’s birthday weekend. Skimming through the reviews it appeared to be a quaint place to have a beach weekend without breaking the bank. We were deceived. The ceiling in the hotel room was falling apart. The furniture was broken and worn. The screens in the bathroom window were torn. The walls, doors, and trim were badly stained with dirt and who knows what else. I imagine the linens were once white.. they appeared old, worn, and discolored. At night, I did not feel safe. While at the pool with my husband, an employee approached us while FaceTiming family in India. He asked how our day was and if the temperature of the pool was ok. He then asked me to say hello to his family and angled his phone in a way to show my full body in swimwear to the men on the phone. It was uncomfortable and highly unprofessional. We will not return to this property. I hope this review is insightful. I encourage you to spend an extra $200 for a safe and clean place. This place could truly be a gem if management took pride in their establishment.

On the road again

This is a great hotel. The young lady that checked me in was wonderful. The room was spacious and had a door that opened up to the courtyard and the pool. The courtyard was beautiful and also so had a grill. The room was very clean. We could only stay one night but would have liked to have stayed longer to enjoy the pool area but had to get moving. We will be back!
