2 Star Hotels in Santa Monica

Solid hotel for the price. Room was clean and very spacious. I highly recommend if you don't want to overpay on the higher end hotels.

the rooms were big (there were 4 of us) and clean. there is brekkie provided, which was of a decent standard (pancake machine was a pleasant surprise). we had green (unripened) bananas served at breakfast on 1 of the mornings. there's facilities to do your laundry + driers too.

The room was nice and cozy. Bed was super comfortable. Breakfast was great, sausage ham and eggs...no bacon :( Microwave and mini refrigerator was available in the room. Nice central location for Santa Monica Pier, Malibu, Los Angeles and Hollywood. Cannot see why anyone would give this hotel less than a 4!!!! If you want something bigger suggest go into LA or Hollywood and pay more.

the room exceeded our expectations very spacious very big. the stay was overall very comfortable I would stay here again. staff was very nice

Great location. Close to restaurants, shopping, beach.

Me & my wife stayed here for a week. We found the motel with no problems at all, just get the free airport bus to the LAX tranportation hub & catch the Big Blue Bus No3 from stop 12 ($1 fare each) & just under an hour later get off at the corners of Pico & Lincoln Blvd's & you'll see the big white/blue motel sign. Check-in was no problem at all & the room was great, bed was good, tv had a lot of choice, bathroom/shower was really clean. Only downfall to room was the lack of air-con & the ceiling fan was good provided you had the window open. The window did have an insect cover, so should you need to open window, the little nasties could not get in. Wi-fi is ok, the closer your room is to the main office the better the signal, as our room was at the back of the complex, we had to use the courtyard outdoor table & chairs area to use the wi-fi. Beach is 20 mins walk from motel, simply exit the motel & turn left, walk to Pico & turn left & follow Pico all the way to beach, or catch Big Blue Bus No. 3 ($1 fare, 5-10 mins) If you want to goto Hollywood, you can walk (about 20 mins) left out of hotel & simply follow Lincoln Blvd to Santa Monica Blvd & catch bus 704, or catch bus No.3 to beach & catch bus 704 from beach & then get off at Vermont/Sunset to use subway to Hollywood & Highland, then you can see chinese theatre at the main exit. I suggest you buy a metro week pass ($25) which enables you to use metro buses & subway. All-in-all our stay in LA was fantastic.

My wife and I enjoyed biking along the beach on the well maintained bike paths. We also enjoyed being close to the beach, Santa Monica pier and the 3rd street Promenade, where you can find many restaurants, shops and street performers.
