  • Overall: Rating of 3.9 out of 5

    "Would recommend to anyone wanting to experience Santa Monica Beach/ Pier." source Travelocity

    "Overall we were satisfied with our stay at this hotel." source Expedia

    "I highly recommend this hotel and am already planning my next stay here." source Travelocity

  • Clean: Rating of 4.3 out of 5

    "I'm not sure if housekeeping fully cleaned the rooms and my room had some maintenance issues." source Orbitz

    "The maids obviously don't clean the bed spread or decorative pillows, and therefore, left a pungent smell of body odor or fluid." source Hotels.com

    "The rooms are clean, the beds are comfortable; the staff is always courteous and helpful." source Travelocity

    "The staff at the hotel were very friendly and even let us check in early (our flight got us there well before check-in time), they were able to clean the sand out of our shower each day (not an easy feat IÂ’m sure." source Expedia

    "Great location but mediocre hotel, however it was clean and the folks were courteous and friendly." source Hotels.com

  • Service: Rating of 4.1 out of 5

    "Nice Hotel, Great location, friendly staff, great room service." source Hotels.com

    "Great customer service, very polite." source Hotels.com

  • Location: Rating of 4.2 out of 5

    "The location is convenient to the Third Street Promenade and Santa Monica Pier. We used to live in Santa Monica and this was the most conveniently located hotel around; we even could see the ocean from our "City View" room." source Orbitz

    "Hotel is located one block from the SM Pier access on Colorado Street. Room was comfortable for a reasonable price, and there's a McDonald's conveniently located right across the street." source Hotels.com

    "The staff at this hotel was exceptional - and the location was great - the downside was that the concierge had a wonderful attitude and desire to be helpful - but not terribly knowledgeable when it came to tour spots- Noise level in hotel from outside traffic - was terrible - pool has a freeway next to it so not a pleasant experience." source Travelocity

    "Parking and room rates expensive, but in line with the other hotels in the area." source Expedia

    "The hotel location was partly great--right down from the Santa Monica Pier." source Orbitz

  • Value: Rating of 3.5 out of 5

    "To get any better hotel or location you will pay hundreds more and may not get but dollar more value." source Travelocity

    "My biggest complaint was the price, it felt I was paying 5star rates for 3star stay." source Travelocity

    "Brought the wife down on a great deal from Alaska Airlines." source Travelocity

  • Room: Rating of 4.1 out of 5

    "We arrived 4:00 and were told only one of our rooms was ready and she had no idea when the other would become available. Our event started at 5:00 and getting four people ready with only one room and bathroom was unacceptable." source Travelocity

    "The hotel would not change my room when I asked 5 minutes after checking in. With fees, taxes and parking, the room was almost $300." source Travelocity

    "The room was decorated very nice with great bed linens. There was a partial view of the pier and water from the room." source Expedia

    "One of few hotels with free parking, rooms are clean, beds are very comfortable & hotel staff are all heplful." source Expedia

    "The hotel rooms are beautifully decorated, but our bed could have used a soft mattress cover to soften the feel." source Travelocity
