This is a nice boutique hotel close to the beach. The room was clean. However the bedroom was isolated from the air conditioning and got hot. You can hear traffic from the nearby street very clearly in the room.

We enjoyed our stay at the Ocean Lodge hotel. It is surprisingly charming for an updated motel building. The location was great and the room was clean and nicely decorated. The one issue we had was the noise level -- I'm guessing because it's an older building, the walls and floors are thin, and we could hear people talking and walking around past midnight. An easy solution would be to provide foam ear plugs in the guest rooms. Other than this, we liked the hotel and would stay again.

Small motel, small rooms but LOCATION near beach and restaurants etc makes the place great for the price. Room was super clean and well stocked, bed comfy, urban area be prepared for common noises. It wasnt too loud. Staff super friendly, water and coffee free. Parking is tight. Pay $38 for space at motel, wait for $17 space next door, pay the meters for 3hrs ata time.

Great location a couple blocks from the Santa Monica pier, downtown Santa Monica and walkable to Venice Beach. Cute “old school” motel experience, with clean and updated room. Two women traveling and felt safe although you are in a busy tourist area so always be aware of you surroundings. Definitely would stay again.

Clean but overpriced

Location is beachside, motel is truly just that, it’s pretty overpriced but the staff is very competent and they do a good job keeping it tidy. The fact it’s so expensive a night and an additional $33 in parking! We could have stayed somewhere upgraded for that rate!
