I don’t know the frequency of the cleaning service, I saw the cleaning lady, but my room was not clean during my stay. The room had a good size, good beds. I think the sheets were a little smelly. The staff were pretty friendly

Cute lobby and street frontage. Elevator not walking and hallways were very dated and dirty looking. Room and Bathroom were fine though. This hotel is in a great location and suited us for our one night stay in Santa Monica.

The room was smaller than expected but it's good enough since we were only there to sleep. Great location, house keeping was great and fast everyday. Front desk personal was amazing as well. Very helpful with any questions or holding our luggage. I am very pleased with my stay.

The location is perfect. It's an older style building, which suits me. It was clean, convenient, had large closets, and was reasonably priced for the location.

Really enjoyed our stay, although lift was broken and we were on the 3rd floor and hotel decor a little tired in front laces. The location to explore Santa Monica was great, staff very friendly and rooms well equipped and big. Big issue was no a/c and not able to open window because of noise.
