Westside Donuts and Croissants

Arthur is the property manager and he is very kind and understanding and professional. I have enjoyed renting here when I’m in a pinch because of him!! This place is a temporary living space so you must expect that it’s not a 5 star hotel but it is pretty good for the price. You can pay weekly and you have a private room and a decent bathroom that is shared in the halls. They keep the place clean and they spray for bugs often. Great location, pretty clean and awesome management. It’s LA so there’s gonna be interesting people in and out of the space, but overall it’s convenient and safe.

Excellent established hotel in Santa Monica

Talk about a diamond in the rough!! Probably the most cozy, cleanest, most reasonable temporary living arrangement in LA. Right down the street from the beach. All major attractions Santa Monica, Venice, Marina del Ray, & Culver City

Terriffic stay

DO NOT LISTEN TO Jim Krisvoy. He was NOT living at this motel in 2018, so he would NOT know anything about which managers managed this motel and which ones didn't. They (David & Louise) used to rip off their tenants by forcing us to tell them our credit scores. When a guest is staying at a hotel or a motel, it is not based on their credit score at all. That was David & Louise's way of picking off who should be paying an extra $200 a month, and who shouldn't. Every time that they make you change your name at that motel, that name then has to reserve that room for longer than 30 days in order to have a tax-free stay for the rest of the time after the 30 days. It was a scam!!! I am glad to know that this Motel has improved and has gotten rid of those two managers.

If you have to be anywhere near Culver City, including Sony Theatres, this place is right there. Prices are below what you will pay anywhere else in the area. Manager is a Lady, the Mom of the gentleman you will usually find working the front desk. They live on site which has obvious benefits. Nice guy. He likes to bike, so if you want to get on his good side, invite him to a ride! Certainly a place to consider if you need to stay for more than a night or two. They have weekly and even monthly rates. Parking can be a problem. There are parking garages nearby. Lots of things to do re restaurants, movie theater, even a Trader Joes within walking distance.

An old hospital renovated to house travelers. Overall I have no complaints.

Compared to anything in the price range, and in the area. it's better than most. Not a hotel. More like Hostel with private rooms. Major issues... No decent eating for blocks. All buisnesses are charging tourist prices. No good cheap eats. And alot of crazies on the street by 711!

Residential hotel, weekly or monthly stays

The West End is undergoing a number of scatter shot technical & aesthetic fixes & wouldn't recommend moving in until sometime early next year...maybe February...but based on how this has dragged out..probably later. Also..this is located on Sawtelle Blvd Blvd in West L.A. The rip off managers mentioned below must be at different location..because they have never been here. Sounds like a dump with very bad management.

Just spoke to the assistant Manager. He does not have ppl skills. He tells me regardless that I am a victim of crime and I have protective order He will rent to my ex long as he has cash. I live across the street. He beat so bad they made a criminal case not Domestic Violence. Stay away order 100 yards He said he still don't care he will rent to him long as he has cash.

Don't even think of staying here. It is totally infested with cockroaches and bedbugs. You won't be able to sleep. AND you will bring cockroaches and bedbugs home with you. Sleep in your car. Ride buses all night. Sit on a bus bench all night. But unless you want to bring bedbugs and cockroaches home don't stay here. Just watched the maid this morning. The hall has black and White tiles. The bedbugs are round black ones. They can be seen on the White tile. Her vacuum cleaner is full of bedbugs. She drags the bugs from room to room.

RUN!!!! This place is a nightmare! Biggest mistake I ever made, the owners and management will lie to you and make you pay illegal taxes that legally had to all be paid back after the first 30 days, but they fraudulently misrepresented that they were a hotel and kept charging multiple tenants these fees and illegal $200 fees with no receipts and then when you demand your money back will file invalid eviction papers. The Housing Dept and City Attorney have also responded to this situation and are investigating. However, they clearly aren’t aware of Wrongful Eviction lawsuits that make them all personally liable! There is lead paint, (paint chipping off the walls) roaches, no air conditioning, no heat and the building is just not kept up. And why would anybody want to be harassed? Imagine you’re living in a building and the first incident the manager tells you that he “accidentally” ended up on your Facebook and found your modeling pics, then he starts asking for you to show him more pics, and then you find out the psycho building manager Arthur Chang has run around asking tenants if they are sleeping with you? You could not creep me out more than this guy did -like what a psycho! I woke up to text messages about this from a tenant who stated Arthur was running around asking tenants where I was, and looking over his shoulder trying to see who he was texting, and then asks him if he was “doing” me and I was livid! Disgusting trash human!My lawyer almost fell over when I was showing him the videos of the owners wife Anita Tabaroki and this building manager threatening me to give them $200 with NO receipt….. So will update once they are served on the WRONGFUL EVICTION suit!!!!

When I was living here, David and Louise both manage this place. They were clearly ripping me off every month, as my stay with the monthly. They told me that I could not get a hotel room if I did not have great credit, so I filled out the form. Then, they told me, after 30 days, I would not be able to stay there, because my credit was bad. When has credit ever had anything to do with a security deposit for a hotel? Then, David told me that I needed to change my name on the hotel room every 30 days that way I can stay there despite my bad credit. What he was really doing is making sure that every 30 days of different person was listed under the room, so he can charge me the taxes. The taxes range between $150 to $200, and he will pocket this for himself. Anyone who has worked at a hotel in Los Angeles knows that after 30 days of living there, your state becomes tax free. By changing my name every month, he prevented me from receiving my tax free credit. And that is not the worst thing that they have done to me there. It's just that this stuff has happened so long ago, I am choosing to try and let it go. If you're looking for a place to stay on a short-term basis, I would recommend this place. However, the longer you stay here, the longer you read the David and Louise trying to run a scam on you.
