Price: About $200 a night Pros: Excellent staff, very helpful, friendly and accomodating. The location was fantastic, right on the beach, in about the middle of the boardwalk. Room was clean, and had adequate amenities. Cons: Bed was pretty uncomfortable, didnt bother me but my husband had a sore back. The TVs were being upgraded and were unavailable during our... More

Not an original quote but this place certainly is, quaint but classy and a fabulous location. The red brick walls in the suites feel like you are on. TV set, well equipped kitchenette and an incredible view across the beach. Neighbourhood full of character, and characters, not far to excellent restaurants and I feel safe here, will definitely return. The... More

I did not expect much and was super surprised at the suite and the view. It has a great lil kitchenette with dishes, silverware, pots etc. Microwave, stove, and mini-fridge work well with the mini-breakfast bar. There is even a small dining table! Hardwood floors :-) You get a nice loveseat, lazyboy, and coffee table blessed by the view of... More

If you want the "Venice Beach" experience, this is the place to start. This is a family-run renovated old apartment building opening onto Ocean Walk. Can't beat the location, can't beat the hosptitality, and can't beat the cleanliness. No parking associated with the hotel, but some is available on street and lots will take overnighters.

Fantastic hotel in a great location. Don't stay here if you want to avoid interacting with real people. Our room was nice and clean, front desk always helpful and the beach is just 10 steps away. We read the reviews before we booked and the negative reviews were usually about people not understanding the location of this place. If we... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here in February. We had such a great time and loved this hotel. It was unique and close to just about everything. The staff was amazing, super nice people that really helped us out with suggestions and accommodated us right away when we got to the hotel pretty early in the morning. We can not... More

If you like being surrounded by homeless people, drug users, and beggers, then this is the hotel for you. It is on the beach, but i'd never stay there again. In the course of 24 hours i was asked about 10-12 times for money food or cigarets. I was advised NOT to go outside after 7:00pm. It may be this... More

I am always very concerned when someone is not happy with their stay at our hotel. I looked into this guest's stay and tried to find out what went wrong and how we could have better described our location and hotel. We try very hard to accurately describe our historic, boutique property and our eclectic, Bohemian beach neighborhood both on... More

Stayed here with my family of three. While in NYC, my teenager was intrigued by the Greenwich Village vibe so I decided to plan a couple of nights in Venice Beach. This hotel is in the perfect location right on the boardwalk. In the wee hours, I was able to look out the upstairs hallway window, watching people passing by... More

This place is a cauldron of characters and you could sit on the walk all day just people watching. The rooms are clean and well kept. It was a little small, but only because we had a pull out bed for my teenaged daughter. There was a little noise on the Friday night but in all we didn't lose any... More
