Matthew Louis, Bothell

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room was reasonable, the bed was nice, but the neighborhood was a little shady. The location is viably convenient to drive from, but being located next to a Jack in the Box also brought some occasional homeless folks to seek help with food from the restaurant. I wish they kept the floors in my room a bit cleaner. Staff was friendly.

This is a very modest hotel, so do not expect pampering. However the price was good and the beds were comfortable and I slept well. I recommend it for budget conscious travelers who intend to be out all day and just using the room for sleeping.

Upgrades not so much

Clean room with comfortable beds which were divided in separate rooms within unit, not one room as pictured. Description states “designer toiletries and rainfall shower heads” - umm…neither. Dinky “plasma television” and tiniest private bathroom possible. Felt very much like a rushed ADU built in a Jack in the Box drive thru.

The wall to the next room was paper thin and I had to listen to some guy chatting on his phone 2-5am. If only I spoke Spanish I could have had half an idea what he was saying, but he seemed to have a lot of patience as every time he ended the call it rang again, where as I had no patience left and was ready to smash his phone to smitherines. However, it was not all bad as the lady who ran the place was lovely

Good location and value

Very good value as it is a short Uber ride or scooter ride from the Santa Monica Pier. The front desk attendant was very friendly and welcoming. Would stay here again on my next trip to Santa Monica/Venice Beach.
