fully recommend this hotel: nice rooms, friendly people, direct in the "venice-beach-live"; we stayed 3 nights and would definitly come again. more

We (my husband and I and our 13 year old daughter) came to Venice Beach never having been before and immediately fell in love with the area as well as the hotel. The room was indeed small but having traveled in Europe, it wasn't anything we weren't used to. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Doors were looked at... more

Great location - right on the beach front and sidewalk! Perfect for wandering up and down or just people watching. Just a few buildings down from the famous sidewalk cafe. Room lovely and airy with mini kitchen (fridge, hotplates, microwave), looked just as it does on their website. Did not have a car with me, so can't comment on the... more

Great location! We stayed in room 306 on the third level. It had ocean views and we liked it! The hotel is perfectly situated on the ocean front sidewalk, right in the middle of everything. My only pickle is that we were told parking was not a problem prior arriving. Parking was indeed a problem. There were no spaces left... more

Location ,,location, location..that is what you get here. The rooms are quirky cramped and a bit shabby but so is Venice itself. You are in the middle of the action here...steps from a nice beach short walk to the canals. The people at the hotel will bend over backwards to make your stay better...free bikes,beach chairs wine and umbrellas...Venice is... more

My husband and I recently returned from our eclectic experience on the Venice Beach boardwalk while staying at this hotel. We loved it. They didn't charge us for the two buck Chuck left in the room when they could have easily done so as most hotels do when you touch anything in their mini bar. It was so quaint. At... more

My girlfriend and I stayed for two days. This hotel is very convenient because you can walk to restaurants, shops, and the beach etc. The beach was surprisingly good: it was clean and cool but not cold water. If you are a "people watcher" this is the place to come. Bring your walking shoes or rent a bike. The staff... more

I got an ocean front room when I stayed here. While the inside of the room was very pretty, all exposed brick and lofty looking, and the staff were as helpful as they could be, I never once felt safe. There is no one there at night, and I saw homeless men walking down the main halls more than once.... more

the greatest thing about the hotel is Terry, the lady who runs it for the owner. She makes a great Housemother, helping us lug our bags, making sure we were wanting for nothing, making sure we were parked in the right place, storing our extra food that didn't fit in our fridge, regaling us with wonderful stories ~~ without her... more
