Family run motel. Very quiet and just the basics. I’ve stayed here twice and would stay again. Beds are hard but other than that, it’s clean, well kept, conveniently located and a good place to stay.

Room was very clean and so was the parking lot. The only thing is the amount of car traffic in the area around the motel a very slow go.

Check in went quickly and smoothly. My room is clean and minimalist. Very comfortable bed. Fresh clean linens. Appreciate the fridge and microwave. Convenient table and 2 chairs. A very nice motel for the price. The location is excellent for many LA activities. I will stay here again when I come up from San Diego.

Was a good location in general (around 15 minutes drive to Santa Monica and Venice Beach) and was pretty cozy. Only thing is I wish they had "do not disturb" signs to hang on guest doors, as it was a bit awkward to coordinate with housekeeping (but they were also very polite and cleaned well). Will be coming back very soon!

The property was very clean and nice. Quiet. Parking right in front of our door helped us feel our car was safe. Reminded me of the old motor lodges. Single level was great so I didn’t have to climb stairs or worry about noise in a room above me.

Central location, clean rooms and bathrooms. Everything worked well, ac, hot water, tv, wifi and power/lights. Check in was smooth, suggested to give a call about 30 min before you go so the manager can keep the rooms ready. Secured with cctv so no problem with illegal entries. Area around is not so lively but is close to freeway.

Arrived and was able to check in fairly quickly. The parking is free and you can see your car from the room which is great, had no problems. When entering the room I was so shocked at how clean and spacious it was. There’s a flat screen TV and decent sized fridge that actually kept my drinks cold!! No complaints for the price, getting more than what $120 motel 6 would give you.

The guy at the front desk was nice and helpful. The room is basic but we had hot water and a heater and that's all that mattered. The bed was comfortable enough but the pillows were really flat. We had to use our sweatshirts as pillows. Affordable room and comfortable enough. Considering this place is on a busy street and close quarters, it was quiet.

Our room seemed newly rennovated. Updated trim, flooring, bathroom. Staff was friendly. Our room smelled strongly of cleaning solution. There were no extra pillows, blankets, or towels. And the bed was extremely hard.

This room was gross and the lady at the front quizzed me on check out time!?!? She put us in a smoking room and there was mold in the fridge, cigarette burns all over, and stains on the mattress. After I was there for an hour, we decided to go somewhere else and then they offered a nonsmoking room. I declined, if that’s the state of a smoking room then I don’t understand why they’d care to keep up the other rooms anyway.

Check in lady

The lady at check in and who works the counter is unfriendly and unpleasant. Was rude at check in and harassed my mom and I about our service dog we had with us that had been ok’d by the owner prior to booking. She also had our credit card # written down on a paper along with others as our room had been booked by hotels.com and wasn’t needed to have. The whole stay with her there was on pins and needles. We didn’t need that since we were there for my moms procedure at cedars! Rooms were very clean, bedding was not up to par. But the rest was ok. Just spend a little more and stay somewhere nicer
