It’s an old building, but the maintenance is good. Hotel management is good. I felt like home. People work there are nice and easy to negotiate. It’s close to the Santa Monica pier, a convenient area.

Rooms are dirty and need a makeover. Property has a lot of potential but they need to clean things up and do some remodeling. My clothes smelled when I left.
