Room had most everything needed in it and was clean, but quite dated with some paint peeling. Hard to sleep: Hot, stuffy room, and A/C wall unit blasted off and on loudly all night, waking me up regularly. Even "downstairs" rooms required lugging suitcases up two small sets of stairs. Would not recommend unless you cannot afford anywhere else.

Good stay in LA. Safe area, nice staff and enough Parking space. Highly recommend booking a remodeled „Premium“ room. These rooms are very nice with a great value for the price.

The staff was top-notch. I was struggling on how to leave this review because it’s hard to leave a proper review for the property as a whole, because depending on which room you book, it’s as if you are in two completely different hotels. It seems like they are in the middle of a remodeling project. I saw photos of the hotel on Google and booked based on those photos and then when I walked into the room, it was as if I was in a motel from 40 years ago. So then I went into the Expedia app and saw that the photos did match the subpar room that I had just walked into. So then I took a walk around the block and considered if I have to just suck it up and accept it because my time was limited or if I complain. So I went to the front desk and they said that I had booked a standard room and that an upgraded room would be an additional $30 a night which altogether came to an additional 60 or 70 bucks. When they showed me the upgraded room, it was as if I was in a completely different hotel. It was jarring how much better than my original room this new upgraded room was. So I decided to pay the extra and take the remodeled room. The rest of the day was good. The cost was probably reasonable? And I get it, if you’re in the middle of a remodeling project, some of the rooms are gonna be upgraded. But the quality difference between these two rooms was comical. Anyway, the staff was great. If I knew I was gonna pay the extra amount I would’ve probably chose in a different hotel

This place is really nice and convenient lots of food options and supermarket close by with the greatest guava pastries and a sushi place in a mile walk to Manhattan Beach. It could do with a bit of a facelift for some rooms and the pool area but that’s happening in the future apparently

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Staff was kind and attentive. Room, while a bit dated, was clean and comfortable. I slept in earplugs, because it's on a busy road, and there was construction across the street, but it was fine. I really appreciated the parking and being walking distance to multiple restaurants and, most importantly, the beach. A short drive to Trader Joe's and has a fridge and microwave in the room. I would definitely come back here. It's a great part of Manhattan Beach.

Basic but clean and reasonably priced for the area that it’s in short walk to the beach and felt safe enough as a solo traveller.

Perfect place to stay if you have a night left in California and want to be close to the ocean, coffee, food AND the airport. The pool was clean, the staff was super friendly, and the vibes were retro but totally clean. I will definitely go back.

Hidden Gem near Mamhattan

A wonderfully renovated Inn that is conveniently located on the PCH on the edge of Manhattan and Hermosa. It’s safe, clean, comfortable, and convenient for a great price.

The onsite restaurant is currently not operational and appears to be in transition to a future restaurant. Beds and decor was outdated. Bed description didn’t match what was received. Upon check in was offered an upgraded room option for additional fees. The rooms that have been renovated appear to be really nice. Motel may be renovating portions at a time until completed. Pool was not serviced, green, and not updated in description as closed for maintenance. Nearby Target, Manhattan Village, restaurants, and beach
