I loved this place! Fabulous old-style motel, right down to the real room keys. Your kids won't even know what these are! Room was large and comfortable; same for the bed and the bathroom. Everything was spotlessly clean. Front desk staff was helpful and friendly, offering me a microwave, beach chairs, beach towels. Plenty of parking. Terrific location, two blocks from beach and half block from great Irish pub / restaurant. With the fridge and microwave, table and chairs, and large closet, a couple could easily enjoy an extended stay here. I wish I went to Santa Monica more often so I could stay at the Sea Shore Motel!

Fun neighborhood, lots of places to eat and close to the beach. The office had beach toys and was very accommodating. The room was large, had a fridge and microwave. Air conditioning worked well and the room was cleaned every day. It was great to have free parking.
