Independent in Malibu from NZ$172

"Comfy beds, easy parking, convenient Arena restaurant with room service. I love the location close to the freeway."

"Lovely hotel! Stayed couple of times, never disappointed."

"The property is located very close to Venice Beach and Santa Monica, the price is reasonable for a no frills motel. Things that could have been better would be access to an iron and hairdryer, also our recycling was left in our room as we did not put in side the trash can so it could be recycled, usually housekeeping will take it away along with any trash. Otherwise our stay was good the room was clean and parking was convenient and the bed was made regularly. The towels were changed regularly...

"Great location "

"Great service"

"This is a great hotel that close to a ton of restaurants, the pier, and a short uber ride to The Getty Museum, and also Venice Beach. Ask the concierge or front desk which restaurants are best. We had a balcony with a view of the pier & the ocean. It was a little cool, so we didn't get to the pool. It looks cool weather permitting. Staff is awesome too! Super friendly, so stay here when in Santa Monica. "

"Beautiful hotel - but the food service to the room was really really slow and the dining in general was a disappointment. Great service people but the menu is undesirable and the food not well cooked. The restaurant never appeared to have enough guests and it's for good reason. We prefer buffet breakfast and they did not have that and the menu options weren't great. I think for the number of stars and price - they should really improve their food."

"Loved everything about our stay except for it being a little noisy "

"The staff was very nice and my room was clean and comfortable. The hallways looked a bit outdated, but the bar was really beautiful. My only problem was that a bar/club nearby was extremely loud. If I were young and still stayed out late, I would not have been bothered. But I generally do not stay up late."

"Amazing views, location and staff! "
