  • It was close to the pier.
  • Felt like I was in the middle of a freeway/loud.

“The room was modern but the noise level overshadowed any comfort it has a cold feel to the hotel//old facilities.”

  • I enjoyed how the room was prepared.
  • Parking was cramped.

“Very pleasant room. The staff was friendly. Great access to the Santa Monica Pier and beach.”

  • The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful.
  • I didn't like to leave it.

“Holiday Inn was a delight. I always thought of the chain as sort of humdrum, but this particular experience disproved that. The bedding was terrific, the room beautifully appointed, and the staff was top drawer. Lovely place to spend a few nights.”

  • Very good location and clean.
  • Didn't like paying for parking should be complementary.

“The rooms were very clean. Comfortable beds, with an ocean view.”

  • Close to beach.
  • Parking was $24.00 a night, not worth it

“The street side is very noisy 6am to 10PM. Horrible for conference calls. Also, had to pay $6.40 for 877 (free)long even thought I asked beforehand and was tole no charge Distance was more than 7 miles from hotel. Never heard of this before. Will not be going back.”

  • The parking facilities were fine , but very expensive!!! $24 for overnight and there is not much of a choice.

“We had a lovely stay and the hotel staff was very accomodating. The room was very well appointed and attractively designed. Close to everything in Santa Monica.”

  • Great location, comfortable enough, friendly staff.
  • Small sort of bathrooms.

“A great location within Santa Monica with clean and comfortable room but somewhat small and dowdy bathroom. Nice staff.”

  • The decor of the room was very warm and comforting.
  • Front desk employees had bad attitudes and were not helpful.

“The rooms are small but the decor was trendy and comfortable. That is about the only good thing I have to say about this hotel. The front desk employees were rude and not helpful. They charge $5 for a bottle of H2O, the vending machine did not take cash + cost $2, you need to go down to let guests in after midnight, there was renovation going on and it began early in the morning waking me up.”

  • Great location.
  • Construction on road next to hotel.

“Santa Monica has a great pier, wonderful restaurants and good shopping, even a nice beach. The Holiday Inn is small and old, but well taken care of. The public spaces were clean, but small. The room was clean, but old. It had a pillow menu, which is a nice touch. Everything was perfectly acceptable, the staff was helpful when calling us a taxi, as I expect in a hotel.”

  • The staff was extremely friendly! Everything was clean and tidy, parking was convenient and location is a block from the beach!
  • The beds are very uncomfortable, decor needs to be updated. Room should include flat screen and cd player please, carpets are dirty need be cleaned.

“It was everything I expected. I knew from the outside and description that it would appear too look as if it needed a refurbishment, inside and out. But, everyone was efficient, friendly, accommodating! The hotel was very clean, location was convenient - I would stay there again!”

  • Not much. The coffee maker.
  • The freeway next to window, the weak staff at the front desk.

“This hotel is an ideal spot for the foreign tourist that wants the LA experience. Cheap and close to some points of interest. Weak in many areas, but the primary motivation for an overnight stay is the location. One block from the Santa Monica Pier and 4 blocks from 3rd Street Promenade.”

  • Very good location, great bathroom, free internet & newer furnishings.
  • Room was small.

“This was a very good hotel, especially for it's location. The room was very small, but the furnishings (bed, bathroom setup, chairs) were very nice. Free internet was a huge plus as many places want to charge for internet access, which should be complimentary everywhere. The business center was very poor, only one computer and the printer broke down while we were there, so they put a sign on it saying it was broken instead of fixing it.”

  • The staff.
  • Dirty carpets in room, small elevators, parking expensive.

“The staff was wonderful. The room was bright and well furnished, though the carpets were worn and stained. Parking is very expensive at $23 per day. Nice location.”

  • Location.
  • Noise.

“There was construction going on outside that started at 7am. Moreover, maid service came at 8am, which is far too early. Therefore, it was not a good place to try and get a good long night sleep.”

  • Staff.
  • Lack of luxury.

“Staff is wonderful and very accommodating. Rooms are sparse, but have what you need. Small bathrooms so difficult if sharing a room. Security is good. Location is excellent.”

“Great location as far as tourist area and beach access. But the hotel is located right on the freeway. The noise level was not bad and did not affect my sleep.”

  • I did not.
  • I did not like the attitude of the reception.

“I was also not informed of the parking fees of 23.00 dollars until I got my bill in the morning. I was told I could park downstairs without being informed there was fee for it. Very bad experience.”
