We weren't at the hotel much as we were in town for a family funeral but the stay is always good. Great location for us and the beach is always comforting to look at. We have stayed at the Bayside often so we know it is comfortable, clean, and accommodating for our needs.

Had to find a place to stay while our house was fumigated. Bayside Hotel was in a great location, close to the beach and great restaurants. It was clean and comfortable, staff very helpful.

Excellent location near the beach, our room had a view of the ocean and was one of the cleanest hotel rooms I’ve ever stayed in. Very nicely updated older building. Safe area, walkable to both Santa Monica Pier and to Venice Beach. Super friendly and accommodating hotel staff. Will definitely return.

The property was well kept up and renovations have been done. It’s beautiful inside the rooms very clean. We stayed in the room with the kitchen it had everything we needed in it and it had lots of security features going in and out of the hotel very close proximity to the beach and pier.
