Fodor's Expert Review Sea Shore Motel
2637 Main St., Santa Monica, California, 90405, USA
On Santa Monica's busy Main Street, the Sea Shore (family-owned for almost 50 years) is a charming throwback to Route 66 and to '60s-style roadside motels in an ultratrendy neighborhood. Just two blocks from a popular beach and bike path, it features rooms with tile floors, quadruple-pane noise-blocking windows, and basic amenities. The rooftop sundeck is a prime spot come sunset. Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus line passes out front. This hotel is popular in summer so be sure to book early.
