I stayed here for a month. Overall, its a decent place to stay.
Good: Convenient location.
-1 min walk to beach and boardwalk
-3 min walk to pier and bus stop
-7 to 10 min walk to downtown Santa Monica, 3rd St Promenade and train station
Bad:
-The unit sometimes gets too hot
-Kitchen utensils made of plastic, which can melt into food. This is unsafe
-Homeless and mentally ill individuals on the streets
-Price is very high
