2-Star Hotels in California, United States

First time, i stayed at hostel and the hostel was acceptable with location and safety in hostel. Bus stops and metro is prettt easy to use. The people was nice to talk and communicate in hostel. Easy check in-out. The breakfast is not breakfast, just bread, nutella, peanut butter and pancake mix. Every morning, a lady cleaned the bathroom. Everyone was respectful to be quiet for others in my room; i was lucky✨🤞🏻

The location is perfect for Venice Beach and short walk from Santa Monica. Bike and scooter rental on the doors step as well as bars restaurants and coffee shops. The staff here are super helpful and the rooms are clean. Great shared space to chill over looking the beach. Tea and coffee facilities 24hr with use of kitchen. Bagels and porridge oats available for breakfast. Shower rooms and toilets spotless with great water pressure.

The rooms facing the highway can be quite noisy, but those overlooking the parking lot are quieter. It's a good place for an overnight stay given its proximity to the airport. However, the hotel shuttle service to and from the airport is an issue. They claim it runs hourly, but I waited at the airport from 11:30 AM until 2:30 PM before a shuttle finally arrived. When I called the hotel during my wait, they just told me to keep waiting. Upon arrival, I asked the front desk why there was no shuttle for three hours, and they said they didn't know.

Best motel 6 and clean property 👌

Great place. It has a pool. The rooms are spacious, and the beds are comfortable.

I booked this hotel for short business trip and location was good tho. Yes from downtown of Santa Monica you need a ride or take a metro but peacefully stay in here room is so big and clean only thing bit annoyed is thin wall or I don’t know maybe my next room was too noisy.

The GOOD: clean, modern looking, felt safe, mostly quiet (aside from the constant stomping noise) nice large TV, nice fridge (no light inside tho), hidden parking area, lots of stores around, didn't see any bugs/roaches, had extra towels, toilet paper, soap in check-in area, etc. The BAD: Even though they are single story rooms, I heard constant stomping from what sounded like a thin lady above me, CONSTANT! Didn't matter if I returned at 2pm, 2am, 7am, noon, this person never seemed to leave their room. Sooo irritating! Also, I returned at 4am and all the parking spots were taken. As soon as I went into my room, a person came out of another room and left, leaving a space available. I had to go back outside and move my car to that empty space. PARKING SPOTS SHOULD BE GUARANTEED FOR THOSE WHO PAID THE $10/NIGHT FEE TO PARK HERE, WHICH IS ANOTHER DOWNSIDE, THE $10/NIGHT PARKING FEE. I had already booked this place for 2 weeks before I found this out!

The hotel was clean, the staff were friendly and professional, and there were plenty of power outlets in the rooms, which was very convenient for business travelers. Oh, and there was also free parking and free Wi-Fi. I have to mention the hotel's Wi-Fi; it was the fastest I've ever used in the US.

Overall it is good, with breakfast and air conditioning. Although there is no 220V socket, there are irons and hair dryers in the room, which is very suitable for business trips. The location is also good, but the sound insulation is a little bit poor.

This was my second time staying in the dormitory here! The location is excellent, with both the subway and bus stops within a 5-minute walk. I stayed in a female-only quad room. The room has bunk beds (each with a pillow, blanket, sheets, one light, and an outlet), air conditioning, a window that opens for ventilation (as there was a slight lingering smell), and a personal locker (you need to bring your own lock). There's also a private changing area with a mirror, light, and curtain, so you can change clothes in the room. A trash can is provided. There are several hooks to hang luggage, but no hangers. For the bottom bunk, taller individuals might find it a bit low, so it might be worth requesting an upper bunk. Amenities like towels and hairdryers can be borrowed from the front desk. Breakfast includes two types of bagels, sliced bread, oranges, jam, cream cheese, oatmeal (I think?), coffee, hot water, tea bags, and mineral water. Some people were cooking with ingredients they bought in the kitchen! There were also two large refrigerators where you could store items by writing your name on them. The shower rooms, toilets, and a changing area with mirrors and curtains are all located in one spot but are separated. The shower rooms have shelves outside for luggage, but they're a bit narrow, and there are no hooks or luggage racks inside the individual stalls, which can be a bit inconvenient. Shampoo and body soap are provided. (Many people were changing in the adjacent changing room.) In the mornings, depending on the time, there were often many people doing their makeup, but I didn't have to wait and everyone shared the space well. One issue I had was on just one night when I tried to use the shower, all four stalls only had cold water, with no explanation or sign that they were broken. It was freezing, which was terrible. I recommend testing if the hot water works at the sink before changing when you use the shower room! Also, the hotel entrance is narrow, and there's no elevator, so it's immediately steep stairs. Carrying large suitcases to the rooms can be very challenging. When checking out, you need to remove the pillow and the two sheets you used from your bed and return them to the small window at the front desk. Please also return your card key to the front desk. If you have any other questions, the front desk staff are helpful and should be able to assist you. I hope this information is useful.
