Amazing, quiet location. I wish the hotel was maintained better. It definitely needs a renovation. Let me explain it this way; you take a roadside $60 old motel and put it in Manhattan beach! Thats how the hotel is! Location is amazing but I won’t stay in that hotel again.

Overall we were not impressed with this property. We only stayed one night. When we arrived & walked into the office to check in (4 pm on 10/5) the woman at the front desk was not very friendly. She seemed to have a chip on her shoulder. The hotel itself is very old & has multiple buildings with units located on all 4 corners of the intersection. The updates to the property are like putting lipstick on a pig. It needs more of a renovation instead of just slapping on new tile & flooring. The floors were uneven & they weren't clean. We could feel the fine sand left behind when walking barefoot. We had a room for 5. The place was definitely not worth the price & we won't be coming back.

the inn is made up of several unattached buildings; we were placed at the very back end of a building where we (two 70yo women) had to walk up a flight of stairs, cross the pool area and up another long flight of stairs. the room was very small and had no dresser. it smelled of mildew and everything was just old. there was no view other than another building or home. I guess they can charge $250/night plus $25/day parking because of being walkable to the beach and cafes. would not stay again at the "No" Sea View Inn

Wonderful location, fantastic, friendly staff. Coffee shops and restaurants nearby. Room is motel-style and made for a beach town, not fancy but cute and comfortable, made for relaxing after washing off the sand and salt. Comfortable beds. Neighborhood is blessedly quiet and there’s a lovely breeze off the ocean. Cruiser bikes available to guests, old and rusty but get the job done. Paid parking. Great place to stay and live that beach life.
