A superb small hotel. Comfortable quiet room, which was spotlessly clean, very helpful friendly staff and a nice surprise of a complimentary light breakfast too. Conveniently located for shops and local attractions, about one mile gentle walk to the pier. Our room was ready for check in one hour before the allocated time and our cases were held securely after we checked out so we had some time for shopping before we left. Would highly recommend.

Conveniently located. Rooms were clean but small. Staff were friendly and beds were comfortable. The free e-bikes were a nice bonus. Worth a stay for a night or two to explore Santa Monica and Venice.
