The room had thermostatically controlled heating, but no cooling air conditioning. The windows do open and it wasn't hot during our stay, so it wasn't a problem for us. Not the quietest place we've stayed, but not as noisy as we had feared, even on Friday and Saturday nights. Location didn't suit us as well as we'd hoped. Venice wasn't quite our speed and it made getting around a bit more difficult than if we'd stayed in Santa Monica. Expensive for what it is, but that's Los Angeles for you.

Good sized comfortable room with full kitchen, seating and shower over a (shallow) bath. Loved the antique elevator, although it was a bit of a challenge with two people and luggage. The staff were fantastic. Note that rooms aren't serviced every day unless you ask. We didn't feel the need.

Noise, when somebody only walking upstairs. Expensive due to the place. Wiew is to next building, but I knew it before.

Factastic place on beach. Nice appartment.Very nice terrace with good equipments.

Location was amazing, walking distance to Santa Monica even with a 7 year old. Two streets away from Main St with loads of eating, shopping choices. And you are on the Venice Beach boardwalk.

I didn’t like that there is no parking for this building. Parking is a 5 min walk away. There is a paid parking lot next to it but it closes early and you can’t access your vehicle as it gets boxed in.

The location is excellent. It’s right on the beach. It’s an older property. Lots of noises and just feels old. The good part is the location! You don’t spend much time inside.

Not the nicest of the reception person (one of them was super nice, helped us change the room because of a small problem we had, but not the other person) - it seem like we were bothering just for saying hello.

The hotel was in front of the beach - great location for someone who wants to be in the center of the fun.

Sofa bed very uncomfortable - dishes in the dishwasher - shower bit old and water running slow

Nice as expected but not same as in the picture

- no place to park and check in. Entrance right at the beach means you need to go around building - scam parking right next to it. (60usd per day) - hotel is affiliated with safe parking garage 10 mins away (20 usd per day), not ideal if you have a car and want to explore the city

+ location if you wanna enjoy Venice beach + rooftop terrace + ocean and beach view

Loved the rooftop deck, spacious room

maybe needs a bit of a renovation but not a big deal.

Was pleasantly surprised staying here considering the price/photos. We only stayed 1 night but easily could've stayed longer, room was nice enough and spacious. Location was 10/10. Have to mention staff were willing to hold our luggage all day while we waited for our flight so extremely grateful for that.

the person behind the desk was brusque. We asked for half anhour extra time and were curtly told that their policy does not allow this, This rigidity is unaccepatble particularly if it comes with discourtesy. a little smile would help. very uncalifornian. the sofa is placed to keep the ocean less on view. The dustpan was not good enough to collect the dust. The dishwashing brush had hair in it. That is unclean. The crockery was not wher it should be. It took us a while to realize that every single item was in the dishwasher. The lift door is heavy and not friendly to people with even slight disability and there was no one to help. But above all the cold, virtually rude face and speech at the reception was hurtful!

the location is good. the ocean view from the single armchair is exceptional. The beach is not manicured and is unlike the wealthy beaches one sees in Hollywood. That is the best part of the terrace studip apartment.

As we had a very early flight we had to wait for two hours to drop off bags at 08h00. an out of hours service wouldve been great. Uber not allowed close to the hotel to pick up bags.

Location on Venice Beach Roof Top space Quietness of the room Ability to drop our bags of for safe keeping prior to booking in Online Booking was very straightforward.

We enjoyed our room until Monday morning. They had a lot of construction going on or something and it was extremely loud. Woke us up early and it went all day. No notice posted anywhere about construction. We understand it has to be done from time to time but posting some kind of notice would have been helpful. Other than that a nice place to stay!

The views we had from our room were amazing! The location is awesome! Right on the beach!

Right on the beach, upgraded to partial beach view. Close to shops/restaurants. Staff were helpful.

No common area. The rooms were very basic and too expensive for what they are. The floor of the bathroom also flooded when I had a shower and wet all of my clothes on the floor.

The location and the view from the rooftop (although it was raining and there were no cushions on the lounges/chairs.) Staff were nice and helpful.

Elevator was old and scary. Parking was a pain having to walk 7 min away at the parking garage.

Beach front and roof top patio was awesome.

This is an older style property so if you need to use the lift and you’re claustrophobic then probably not for you! It is also not very soundproof, you can hear people walking around in their rooms upstairs. We only stayed a night so wasn’t an issue for us.

The location is sensational! A few steps from the front door and you’re on the beach. The rooftop is very cool too although it was way too windy for us to enjoy. The staff are so lovely and helpful and it was really easy to check in.
