I was pleasantly surprised. Great location and price was very reasonable. Room was clean and had a great view of the Marina. I will definately stay at this hotel again when in Los Angeles. Parking is convinent and FREE.

Great view, good service provided by staff, dining somewhat limited and short, maintenance of hotel, needs some work. Pricy for this hotel.

Considering many of the surrounding Santa Monica hotels are very expensive, Marina del Rey was a more affordable option. The hotel staff was very friendly, but the hotel is rather dated. The rooms could definitely use some ambiance. There were no lounge chairs and not much decor. The window in our room was falling apart. The beds were clean and comfortable, and the view of the marina was wonderful. My biggest complaint was the smell in the morning. We were suddenly overwhelmed with an awful smell coming into the room. It smelled like rotten eggs and was coming from the hallway. We never found out what it was. If you are looking for a luxury hotel keep searching. If you want a low price place to stay near Santa Monica this is a great option!

Great location, overlooking marina. Rooms are a bit run-down: slightly stained rugs, could use repainting. Generally comfortable and clean. Staff was very helpful: they gave me breakfast vouchers when I did not get the room I requested, then moved me to a better room the 2nd day.

Had a great 4 days here. Wish the rooms came with a small fridge. Staff was excellent. Rooms were clean, bright. Sweet little balcony. Toilet and bathroom was a little tight but other than that no complaints.

While the physical building is showing signs of its age, MRDH is a great place to "get away" while in LA. The important stuff works - pool, ice maker, sea breeze or a/c - add in great views and quiet location. Close to Venice, Santa Monica if you want action. 10 mins to airport. Not for every one, but I like it - I've been visiting since the mid-80s (when it was in prime). Actually costs less now in actual dollars.

Although the Hotel is old and in need of renovation, this remains one of my select hotels when staying in the Marina del rey area. After receiving our room keys I found that we did not have a room with a view of the marina. I reverfied what I had reserved on Hotels.com, I approached the front desk and was told that all rooms booked through Hotels.com are standard rooms (regardless of Hotels.com listings) with a parkinglot view only. Even with this information I was offered an upgrade to a marina view room at no additional charge. Ontop of this I was provided a $50 dollar gift card for any inconvience this had caused. If you want the best rooms/view, ask for the West Wing. These rooms seem to be more up to date, larger, and provide a better view of the harbor. The staff continues to be very courteous and are always there if you need anything.

I spilled a drop of lotion on the floor and when I wiped it up, the rag I was using was black, like the floor had not been scrubbed in awhile. To turn on the light where the toilet area is, it also turned on the light in the sink area closer to the bedroom, so if you had to go in the night and turn on the light you woke up the others in the room sleeping. We finally got a flashlight to use in the toilet area. Had to ask for a refrigerator, none provided. The bed was very comfortable, the room was roomy, but on the tables where there had been chips or rings, they just painted them over in black where the damage showed through. They encouraged open windows but there was no screen, a person could easily fall out. Loved the view, the people were very nice and helpful.

Carpet looked like a DNA pound, the cieling had water damage and peeling, the were two holes in the wall where maybe there had been a picture hanging; one of the holes had a hat-pin stuck in the hole. Breakfast prices were unbielavable! $8.00 for a cold bagel and coffee.

Hotel staff was friendly, helpful and courteous

The location was great! Fantastic view from my terrace (get the marina view, the city view overlooks the parking lot, yuk) The outside of the hotel and hotel lobby are well kept. The staff is great! The rooms do need updating, the floor carpet in my room did not appear to be clean, the wallpaper was coming off the wall, water spots on the ceiling. I only stayed two nights, so it was great, since i was not in the room very much. The parking is free, the view is great, the staff is great.

The hotel was nice but a little over priced for what the rooms and restaurant provided. The location was somewhat isolated from the rest of the area. The marina view was fantastic. The hotel employees were friendly but acted like they were better than most of the guests.

Everything was fine, except the beds were not very comfortable and a lousy selection on ancient TVs. Couldn't even get Comedy Central to see the Daily Show.

Great room for the price. Hotel could use an update, but not in terrible condition. Excellent view from room, staff extremely friendly. Not much in walking distance, but many attractions within a short drive.

The hotel was very clean and the staff friendly. The location by the marina was very relaxing without having to be in the city. Very close to LAX and the beach.

could not successfully order drinks at the pool. not enough bar keep help to keep up with customer demands. I was told I was 6th in line to get drinks poolside. waited 30-45mins and still no drinks. I stayed at your hotel for a vacation which means I expect good customer service in order to enjoy a vacation I paid good money for. front desk service was o.k and tried to compensate for the bar keep situation. marina del ray had everything else going for it except customer service. that is a future deal breaker for me and anyone who asks me for a hotel referral.

Love the location and the view! For the price I wanted to spend, this was perfect!

I liked this hotel a lot. The staff were friendly and extremely helpful. The room was clean and large and good value for money. Although the floors and walls were a little thin it made it a lotle noisy at times. The pool was fantastic and the restaurant was too. The Hotel is in a good location although a little far away from the main tourist areas as we did not have a car. I would definitiely stay here again.

Lovely little hotel with great views of the marina. Friendly and helpful staff. Free parking outside close to the main entrance. We had a delicious breakfast on the terrace overlooking the water.

In our opinion this hotel offered excellent value for money and was only a short cab ride to anywhere of interest. 10 to 15 dollars or so. The one and only critisism i would have would be the really old tv with not perfect reception. But that didnt bother me and i thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. Parking was free. At other hotels i stayed in while in LA was $33 per night plus tax in one and $40 plus tax and tip at the other. Also just remembered. Drinks by the pool include tax and tip. So unlike anything else in the states. when you get your bar bill you dont have to add a tip. The beds here were huge. Californian king. bout 8 feet wide and long. What more can i say. if this hotel is in the ball park of your budget you will we delighted.

This hotel is in need of a SIGNIFICANT upgrade...I won't go into all the problems this property has...just one word of advice...FIND ANOTHER HOTEL!

Great location, semi-clean rooms, good breakfast.

The only redeeming feature of our weekend stay was the service in the cafe and the servers. The front desk was so rude to us it was unsettling. The mold in the room was appalling. Everything lloks to be falling apart. Wow does this place need a capital infusion. Too bad, it is a neat location on the harbor. Re-train the front desk to not shout at you.

we were mainly disapointed by the poor condition of the room: old, used, dirty and badly repared carpet, used wall paper, holes in the bathroom cieling....

The surrounding location is awesome! Beautiful views, convenient to the airport, shopping and LA. Also, upon entering the hotel you are greeted by courteous staff...However, once we checked-in things went downhill. The room appeared outdated and dirty. There were ants in the bathroom, the air conditioner in the room didn't really work and we had to keep sliders open (without screens) for fresh air. The pool heater was broken right up to our last two days so the water was too cold to swim in. It's hit or miss when booking a hotel on the internet...We missed.

I loved this hotel and was really pleased with my choice. Very friendly, scrumptious cookies on arrival, smiling staff, balcony with great view, fresh air, quiet, cooked breakfast buffet included, nearby resturants, close to Venice beach, handy for Hollywood etc. It felt safe and secluded. Fussy (or discerning) guests would moan that room decor is dated and a bit worn out, it is well due for a refurbishment planned soon, but for me the other plusses completely out-weighed this. I thought it was very good value for money. (Make sure they are not refurbishing it when you plan to stay!)

The hotel is a nice enough property, but could be freshened up. The bedding was new, but the carpet is old and gives the room a tired feel. The price was OK, not a great deal. Free parking is a plus if you factor that into any LA area hotel.

THey've done some basic remodels...ie paint/decor in lobby. But the structure itself is very old. The rooms have a bit of a mildewy smell, I think from the moisture. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. And the little bar/restaurant was basic, but nice.

Our stay at this hotel was comfortable and enjoyable. The hotel needs a bit of updating, for example the bathrooms, but it was very functional. The views of the marina are wonderful and it is a nice area for a walk. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I would definitely recommend this hotel to friends!

The hotel is very old so it needs a facelift but with the ecomony not so good I can understand why they don't update it. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. The breakfast buffet was very nice.

Quiet, relaxing, getaway easily accessible, but far enough away from the business of LA. Very reasonable price with no parking fees and a small, but acceptable breakfast. Wandering the harbor a major plus.

This was my best hotel experience I've ever had.I arrived at the hotel around 11.AM, they let me check- in right away, my hotel room was georgeous, overlooking marina and pool.The view was just breathtaking! Room was very clean, bed was very comfortable,The staff at the hotel was excellent and extremely nice, ready to answer any question, or help you with just about anything; Maria, was excellent she helped me a lot; specially with dry cleaning almost at the last minute,there is also a business center with free computers, and every morning free outstanding breakfast buffet.

I live here in LA and checked in to have a quick escape and was very disappointed. The price was too high for the style and service. It is very old and outdated and have few amenities. The bar is sad but Carlos was nice. The morning breakfast service was awful as was the buffet. Burned bacon, dry muffins and wet eggs. The bed was ok but the room was totally dated. Bathroom shower door was stuck, no control on the temp of the water or the room, there is a loveseat that is stained and grossly dated, it smelled moldy and looked it too. There was, however a great view from the balcony. Everything sort of half worked in the hotel. The worst was some maintenance or something going on above my room at 7 a.m. which woke me. The floor and walls are paper thin so could hear every step, voice, movement above me. This went on for over an hour until there was a birthday party and singing in that room at 8 a.m.!! I had to get up and call the front desk to get it to stop until a reasonable hour. It sucked. You must take the unpleasant stuff for the rate and being on the marina. Great view but everything else was terrible. Not worth it.
