Pros: The property reminded me of the show Melrose Place. Several units surrounded a pool with vegetation. We stayed in a one bedroom unit that had a door separating the bedroom and bathroom area from the living area. In room 315 the bedroom window was next to the street, but the noise didn’t bother us. That says a lot because we live in the country and aren’t used to any traffic or pedestrian noise at night. The hotel provided the softest towels I’ve ever used. Both beds were comfortable. The couch easily pulled out to a queen size bed. Large TVs that worked great. Wi-Fi available. Full kitchen with sealed bags of ice in the freezer were provided. There is lots of shopping and restaurant options within walking distance. We visited CVS and Target several times. It is a couple blocks from the beach and within walking distance of the Santa Monica pier (wear comfortable shoes!) Don’t miss the 7th street shopping pavilion. Very cool vibe and lots of neat little stores next to a mall. The staff at the front desk was always helpful and friendly. Cons: I didn’t see an elevator so we hauled our luggage up the stairs. The room had a slight odor, but once we bought a couple of Glade plug-ins, it was fine. It could’ve used some updating, but we’re not very picky people and it didn’t bother us. The pool wasn’t heated, but since we went in December we weren’t expecting it to use it. If you go in the summer and need air conditioning double check that that’s available. Fans provided.

It was quaint that the rooms had original (from the 50s?) windows, heating, and plumbing, but windows were not very sound proof, the heater was noisy and the pilot light had to be restarted by the staff, and the toilet was noisy.

The price for this location was excellent. I was just staying the night for a surgery the following morning so it was perfect for me. If you wanted a spacious and quiet place right in the heart of Third Street Promenade and near the Santa Monica Pier and didn’t mind that it was old and run down and didn’t look nice and has old and pretty broken down furniture,,, for like half the price or better than nearby decent hotels,,, then this place is perfect! Staff was nice, helpful and courteous.

This is a former apt. building so the rooms are apartments. Very spacious. Had living room and dining table a and a small kitchen, 2 TV's. A small pool. About 3 blocks form the beach and close to Santa Monica Pier. Restaurants weren't that close.

Not worth the money.
Very uncomfortable!!!! There was old moldy food in the fridge!!!! Dirty dishes in the sink. The blinds did not work they were taped together. Not worth the $560 a night I spent.

We loved our stay! The staff is so helpful and polite. Rooms are spacious and clean, it's like staying in an apartment. I absolutely love the quiet little swimming pool, with a beautiful garden surrounding it. Location can not be beat! This is a gem of a hotel; it is not a newer place or upscale, but if you are looking for a place with a full kitchen, near the beach and a quiet atmosphere- Cal Mar is the perfect spot!
