    Could have had some tea/coffee making facility in room or a coffee vending machine in lobby or near vending food annexe. A cheap analogue microwave would be useful - capital cost $50/room they are cheap now.

    Well located in LA bayside & on bus route. Nearby access to a range of dinning experiences and a lengthy, but doable walk to the actual Manhattan beach with waves. Hilly walk uphill return from beach but lovely residential suburb short cuts off main roads. Access to coastal bus services and relatively close to LAX for international visitors - not wanting to stay near the LAX airport or further downtown.

    LA is a busy city and the roads are always busy so some noise can be heard, but that is beyond the control of the Seahorse and just indiciative of LA life.

    Room was just renovated to modern clean standards, Super comfy bed with new linens. Nice touches with the surfer on the blind which was fitted well and kept the daylight out. Slick modern bathroom and nicley fitted kitchen.

    The beds were small and the room smelled like cigarettes. It just didn't feel clean

    I like that it had a pool and good location not far from beach access

    That I had to pay an additional fee for early check in. Considering my flight landed at 6am and I was coming from so far for only a few days, they could have worked out a nice deal - especially on my first visit.

    The location was perfect. I felt safe and saw other families come and go which was pleasant to see. I would choose Seahorse Inn again for sure.

    Nothing I couldn't live with for the night.

    I just needed a place to stay for the night so location was not important. Room was very nice, large and comfortable, especially for the price. Bed was a little to hard for my personal liking. TV is "Pluto" so lots of channels. Fridge in room. Bathroom is small but doable.

    For the price I think everything was pretty decent

    Seahorse inn is 15 minutes from LAX, it's clean, the beds were v comfortable.clean towels every day. 5 min drive from the pier. Plenty of off street parking and free WiFi.For the area - which is v nice - this is fantastic value for money and I'll definitely be staying here again , a great base for exploring all of LA.

    The shower was fixed on the wall, would prefer to have a shower handle. But seems like this is the same all across US.

    I have decided for the Seahorse Inn because of the location. You can walk down to the beach and find food places nearby. Close to other sightseeing spots.
