Location is good with regular $1 bus ride -about three miles to the sea front. Also on same route you pass the city library with free internet. Hotel is grossly over priced . The free breakfast is very limited. I saw staff repacking slices of bread possibly to reuse the next day for breakfast toast. Reception staff are not friendly... more

I've stayed here a bunch of times, and I can put up with the not-very-good breakfast in return for the great location (convenient to the beach and Westwood, LAX, Santa Monica) and reasonable price. Tonight though, being a bit stinky, I decided to take a nice hot shower, but it was not to be. The water temperature didn't get above... more

This was insanely expensive for the location and quality. I'm just annoyed that I paid nearly $200 for a crappy room with a terrible breakfast. I called before coming and was quoted a rate $20 LESS than I was charged (all before tax). It was ridiculous. more

I didn't really like this place that much. It was probably very nice when it first opened in the 1980s, but it needs a facelift. The bed was OK, but the furniture in my room was starting to fall apart. There was a mini-fridge, but no iron or microwave oven in the room. For $109 a night, I would expect... more

Hotel is very outdated and in need of refurbishment. However, maids did keep room quite clean. Sheets were clean and beds comfortable. Shower worked well. Not well sound proofed- could often hear conversations in other rooms. Breakfast was ok- enough to fill us up for the morning. All served on plastic/paper cups and plates though so felt a bit like... more

We stayed at the Days Inn Santa Monica for 4 days. Its in a good/safe area, there are restaurants nearby (driving distance or a good walk), and on the main road (Santa Monica Blvd). The room was just ok. The bedroom was clean and so was the bathroom. Housekeeping did a good job of cleaning each day, changing the sheets,... more

The only thing of value at this establishment is the dirt that is under the building. The front desk personnel were cold and not friendly at all. This hotel hasn't seen an upgrade since the 80's at the earliest. Everything there is VERY dated from the decor to the exercise equipment. Our room was a nightmare. Mold and mildew in... more

We arrived at Santa Monica without having a hotel booked and after phonging several hotels managed to get a room here. We were told that the only available room was a deluxe room. It turned out to be the most expensive hotel of our 2 week holiday to San francisco, Las Vegas and LA whilst being our least favourite and... more

I booked a reservation at the hotel because it was the least expensive. I didn't know what to expect but found myself in a very safe neighbourhood. The staff at the hotel was excellent, they gave adive on tours, gave me directions to places I wanted to see, and were overall very helpful. There was fresh juice, tea and pastries... more
