Gateway in Santa Monica
We needed a handicapped accessible room. It had everything we needed. There was secure access, requiring a room key to use the elevators, the room was clean and comfortable, had all the amenities you could want. Would definitely stay there again.

Noise level from traffic & especially the numerous ambulances arriving at the multiple surrounding medical facilities. Cable tv & wifi were spotty. Continental breakfast is ok but very, very simple & only hot item is pancake machine. Also very little seating for that. Location is very good for getting around the area & parking is great, especially for only $16 a night, rare in LA hotels!

Don't use Hotels.com
I was quoted a price and paid it through Hotels.com and charged much more at the hotel, they refuse to fix it and getting to talk to anyone at Hotels.com is next to impossible, I feel totally cheated by both parties.

The hotel was clean which is one of our biggest concerns. The location of the hotel in Santa Monica is great. We did not get to try the restaurant but hope we can do so during our next stay.
