The location was good, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I got there early and hoped to be able to check in early, which did not go well at all. They did hold my luggage for me while I explored the area.

Great hotel, quiet and perfectly located. Ocean view was great, room was clean and nice. Bathroom could do with an update. Shower pressure was extreme and no adjustable shower head so was a bit difficult to use, but overall a nice stay. Would stay again.

The hotel was at the perfect location in the area, clean and very well maintained. Not so pretty on the outside, but surprisingly very pretty, modern and well decorated inside. The staff are amazing every one of them. Even the cleaning girls were very friendly and awesome!

Our stay at the Ocean View hotel in Santa Monica was truly wonderful from the moment we arrived we were welcomed into a warm and friendly atmosphere that made us feel right at home. The hotel is not only beautifully maintained, but also exceptionally clean which added to our comfort and peace of mind throughout the day. A special highlight of our visit was encountering Joy who was incredibly attentive and kind her friendly, demeaning, genuine hospitality truly stood out and made our experience even more memorable. It’s always a comfort to stay in a place where the environment is so beautiful and welcoming we look forward to returning and highly recommend Ocean View Hotel to anyone visiting Santa Monica.
