Great location. Calm and pleasant. Easy check-in and check-out. Loved the inclusion of a parking pass because parking can be tough in Santa Monica. Even though we were staying in a room in their condo, we felt we had complete privacy. The room does backup to an alley but outside noise wasn't really an issue. Only issue was there seemed to be a water heater, or something similar, that was a bit noisy on throughout the night. Would recommend for a short stay in Santa Monica.
