We wanted to stay as close to the Santa Monica Pier and 3rd Street Prominade as possible, but we wouldn't pay the exorbitant $500/night prices most places were charging. Ocean Lodge was the cheapest we could find at $199/night. I am a hotel snob, so I prepared myself for the worst, and was pleasantly surprised. Of course this is no... more

We were pleased with the hotel overall. Our room was clean, had a fridge, and was well taken care of by the cleaning staff throughout our stay. Sure, the room is a bit dated and is on a small side. But for this price, I could put up with the 1960's pink shower tiles and lack of space. The location... more

We stayed here a couple nights because I wanted to be near the beach, but not spend $400 + per night. I really had no problem with the place - the room was clean and so was the bathroom. The shower was the old vintage pink tile, and the grout was dark in places, but otherwise everything was ok. It... more

I stayed at the 'hotel' for 4 nights on the 6th April 2007. The location of this hotel is amazing! Walking distance to the pier, beach and shops. The outside appearance of this hotel isn't to my tastes, but that was not a problem - I knew what it looked like before I booked it. Being a bit picky, my... more

I was apprehensive about booking the Ocean Lodge, due to some of the reviews posted here, but as it was only for one night, I thought I'd bite the bullet. I needn't have worried! The Ocean Lodge was excellent. You can't ask for a better location in Santa Monica. It was spitting distance from the pier. We arrived long before... more

The room had dust falling from the ceiling fan, so my mom & I both got sick. We had to go buy medication and we looked for an air purifier! There are no ocean view or particial ocean view rooms in this hotel. There is no airconditioning in the rooms! You have to open a window &/or use the ceiling... more

I stayed at the ocean Lodge and found it to be a home from home from Scotland. Where else can you be in striking distance of the world famous Santa Monica Pier and Venice Beach at those prices. Loved your wonderful weather and unfailing courtesy and great value. The Singing Chairs were special too! Regards Doug Timmins nameinlights@blueyonder.co.uk more

We flew in to LAX from Houston and stayed at the Ocean Lodge Saturday & Sun nites. The location is really good, easy walk to everything that we wanted to see and do. We never got in our car, pd $10 to park it right by our room. Our room was 175.00/nite which is really high for such a small,... more
