For an older motel this establishment is nice with close walking distance to beach, pier shopping and dining. Owner of the hotel was very friendly. The only complaint would be the condition of towels and comforters on the beds.

Great Downtown Santa Monica Location
I was super happy with the way this choice worked out for our recent trip. The property's location was optimal both for walking local restaurants, attractions, and the beach, as well as for driving to our other destinations. The (long term) owner(s) are doing a great job with maintenance and upgrades - the room was clean and updated, bedding was great, and everything worked as expected. Secure, yet accessible parking was a welcome benefit as well. Another joy was engaging with staff and the actual owner; getting restaurant recommendations, local history, and beach towels. All that said this is a vintage property, and if you expect the kind of construction that isolates your room from those adjacent, well, you might have to look elsewhere. Hearing others move around was a reminder that we should probably begin our day and enjoy Santa Monica. 100% would return.

The staff allowed us to check in early, which was a big plus, and were all very friendly. Parking was very easy, there were plenty of shops & restaurants in the local area, and it’s so near to the beach (they lend chairs and towels for guests to take down with them). I would say that the property is in a good condition for its age, but the floors inside the room were a bit dirty during our stay.

Disliked: Amenities
There was a lot of construction happening in the area which was very noisy. Our water was turned off and we were only informed nonchalantly after we went to the desk to ask for a second key. When the water was turned back on black stuff came out of the taps which was a bit concerning. We also had brought a laptop and we were a little uneasy about security as the locks are a bit flimsy. Proximity to the beach was amazing though.

Best location, free parking, cool architecture!
This hotel is wonderfully unique and so enjoyable! Best location, mid-century architecture and furnishings, great staff. Super clean. Memorable visit. This is what you want when visiting LA. We had truly memorable experience. Tom at the front desk is a great guy and we enjoyed meeting him.

We loved our stay at the Sea Shore Motel in early August. We walked to Santa Monica beach and swam - the motel had boogie boards and beach towels. It’s charming and very old, but squeaky clean. The beds were comfy, a/c worked, and it was convenient. Check in was easy and the staff was friendly. Thank you!

Great customer service, great welcome. This motel was perfect. We enjoyed the cleanliness, the cute rooms, the included parking and amazing front desk staff who borrowed us beach toys and towels. Great motel in the heart of Santa Monica. Thank you!
