Well you’ll never be lonely with the cockroaches to keep you company. Don’t mind the blood on the bed sheets or curtains, they are just decoration. The spooge on the pillows and drapes are exquisite

There were cobwebs in the dresser drawers, the bed was only sort of made, the tv in the room didnt work, its advertised as pet friendly but offers no place on premises to allow a dog to use the bathroom, a staff member tried walking into my room unannounced. If i had another option, i would not have stayed the 2nd night. I didnt even feel as if my property was safe in the room and packed it up to take sight seeing with me.

The last resort

The tv didn’t work. The shower head didn’t work and sprayed water in all directions. There were only two outlets so it was hard to charge our devices. We had to unplug the heater to charge our phones. The room was tiny and very rundown with grimy curtains, and peeling paint. There were a few positive things. The office managers were friendly and helpful. The parking was free. The location was very convenient to the art fair at the Santa Monica airport. And the price was reasonable.

Needs a complete overhaul. Unclean - look at the Google reviews. Should be removed from the hotel list until it has improved, association damages Expedia's reputation.

I would highly recommend NOT staying here. There were bugs on floor and holes in the bathroom walls with mold in them. Pillow had stains on it and the door had no deadbolt lock, just the handle lock. If you wanted to keep the room key it was a $20 deposit. Felt sketchy. I ended up buying another hotel for my 2 nights that was cheaper and much cleaner/safer.

The hotel was shabby and rundown. There were flies and roaches in the bathroom. The electric outlets didn't work. The WiFi didn't work. The upkeep was non-existent. They charged a $20 cash deposit for the key, but the office was closed at 7:30 am so I couldn't get the deposit back. I've been in economical (cheap) motels before. This one was by far the worst.
