At least 35 mins walk to the beach. Breakfast is so so basic that it not worth it. Room has no carpet, which is good but the walls are so thin. I could hear my neighbor with their TV on past midnight!!! I didn’t really had much good sleeps or enjoy my day there due to the loud noises from the rooms above.

False advertising. Lots of the reviews made it seem like this would be a nice hotel. We booked on Hotwire at a “discounted rate” of $220, value was less than half of that. This is a 2 star motel, with a breakfast so cheap that it’s almost criminal. Fitness room is a 6x6 square with mirrors on every wall so that it looks better in photos. Not centrally located. Staff was pilot and rooms were clean. Parking is not free. No amenities or facilities of any kind to make it worth the expense.

We needed a room for a 24hr layover that allowed us to also explore new places and this fit the bill and the budget

Rooms are clean and nice, very loud though. It was hard to sleep. The beds are not very comfortable either.The staff is friendly.The breakfast is terrible. We booked here so we would have free breakfast and there was nothing my wife or kid could eat due to allergies. I wish there was more info on it.Good location. Just wouldn’t book here again.

I decided to book this hotel for our Los Angeles trip and I'm glad I did!It was a struggle to find a well-reviewed hotel that included breakfast and parking, so when we found the Gateway Hotel it almost seemed too good to be true, but it lived up to my expectations.The location is good, right on Santa Monica Boulevard but not immediately surrounded by tourist shops or anything like that. It's about a mile to the pier. The parking is on two underground levels and it is very tight, I could see full size SUVs or trucks having difficulty down there. The parking can be included in your rate, so if you need to park make sure that's in your rate.The rooms were very well furnished and kept very clean. The staff was always kind when we interacted with them. There was some street noise, but I think it was more than acceptable. There was no noise from other rooms or the hallway. The bathroom was good but I do like rooms where the toilet and bathtub are separate and at Gateway it was all one room. My only wish was for higher water pressure.The SOCALO restaurant in the hotel is excellent as well and they have happy hour specials! Definitely worth popping in there, even if it's just for drinks and appetizers.

I took my bf to California for his 50th Birthday and we stayed 3 nights at this hotel. The hotel was clean, the staff was super responsive and very nice. The parking is very reasonably priced at $16.50 per stay. They also hold a hotel incidental fee of $100. The parking comes out of that. I had googled this hotel before I decided to stay here and it had great reviews. For a 3 star hotel it wasn’t bad at all. I would definitely stay here again and will recommend this hotel to friends and family traveling in the area.

More like an overpriced 2 star hotel. There's a $35/night tax on top of the advertised price. They charge $16/night to park your car. Their breakfast isn't edible unless you like sugar and cereal. It's a disappointment, if you have average expectations. But considering where we are at, Santa Monica California, I'm not surprised. The bar is set way too low here.

The hotel is quite good in general, especially the attention of the staff.The problems are:- good breakfast, but without salty foods.- Little availability of indoor tables to have breakfast.- Internet with problems (it crashes frequently).
