Ocean Park Inn

I liked the room. It's got a good location too, it's a nice neighbourhood to walk around (clean streets, beautiful houses, a nice park, etc.), and it was about 15 minutes walk from the ocean. When we went for our morning run, we could even reach Santa Monica Pier. The bed was super-super comfortable, and the air was clean - my partner is allergic to dustmite and this was the first hotel in a very long time where he was completely fine in.

The location is awesome. It's super close to the beach, there are eateries close by like McDonald's, Chick-Fil-A, and Carl's Jr. For grocery shopping, Gelson's is directly up the street. There's also a laundromat about 2 blocks away. For artists, there is a Blick materials store close to where the laundromat is, as well. For those needing public transit, the #3 Big Blue Bus runs down Lincoln, and it will take you straight to the Expo train line in downtown Santa Monica.

This property was a great value and also offered free parking. Which in LA is hard to find. This hotel is dated, but exceptionally clean and the bed was super comfortable.

The bed was comfortable. There were an adequate number of power outlets, with two AC outlets and at least one USB power port on the front of each nightstand on the two sides of the bed. The air conditioning had a digital thermostat to control the heating and cooling. Did not use the cooling function since it was cold, but the heat worked as expected. Bath room and shower were small, but adequate. Free coffee and water were available in the office (when open), with canned soda available for a charge.

It was not far from the beach, 20 min walk. 30-40 min walk from Santa Monica pier. It was clean and just fine for 2 nights. Coffee was good. We felt save in this neighbourhood. We could park normally every time but in the afternoons we saw parking lot was always full. Groceries shop just 3 min walk away.
