Great Location and Friendly Staff

The location can’t be beat! I was able to walk the few blocks to the beach first thing each morning. So many coffee and breakfast places so close. Walked to Venice beach in no time one day and the next day walked to Santa Monica Pier. I was able to get to everywhere I wanted to go easily. Plus, it was easier than I thought it would be to drive to Berely Hills and the Lakers game. The staff was so nice and welcoming. I will definitely be staying at the Sea Shore again when I visit LA!

The beds are hard and rather uncomfortable and there is no means in the room to make a hot drink which was the first in our month long trip. A bit shabby too, so expensive for the standard provided.

Old but clean

It’s old but clean, typical California hotel near the beach parking was a bit tight. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

Charming with a perfect location

We love this place. It’s charming and spotless with an amazing location. The service is very friendly and there are many additional amenities in the lobby that you can choose to bring back to the room. It’s a gem and we would love to come back.

Well located neat and tidy motel in Santa Monica

Well located neat and tidy motel in Santa Monica, two blocks back from the beach, close to loads of restaurants and cafes etc. Rooms could do with a bit more supply of plates / cutlery / coffee & tea etc.

The motel staff was exceptionally warm and welcoming, and so willing help out with things that will make our stay better--offering a microwave or coffeemaker, or tableware. We much appreciated this.

Room was clean and comfortable. It’s not a trendy, recently renovated type of place if that’s what you’re looking for, but it’s in a great location at a great price! Every worker we interacted with was kind and helpful. No complaints whatsoever!

It’s adorable and affordable. It matches the pictures. We booked a suite over a week for myself and my adult daughter. It was perfect size of a one bedroom apartment, functional kitchen and great open space with lots of sunlight. It’s walkable to restaurants, boutique shops and the beach.
