Stayed here for our anniversary. The entrance is quite steep and narrow, par for the course in the area so not a surprise. Parking is super tight so don't use a big vehicle, it just makes everyone else's parking harder. The room we stayed in was clean and quaint, but furnishings were kind of worn, the exterior also is fairly worn due to the environment. They do have some wine available which is nice. Location is convenient for Zuma beach but not much else.

The lobby had been redone, but the rooms are in need of being redone. There was tea and coffee in the room, but no sugar or creamer to go with it. Couch and chair in the sitting room were extremely old. The hotel used disposable shampoo bottles, which far as I know is not something that’s done in the state of California. Outside our room was a shed/area that was used for discarded furniture. And then upon leaving, we checked to make sure nothing had fallen under the bed and then we found a very old, dusty and dirty shirt that had been under the bed for quite some time.

Some maintenance would go a long way. Update furniture from the Temu stuff - paint and maintain items. Wouldn’t be a bad place. Currently it’s a little rough. Light switch was broken fire place didn’t work. Fairly dusty rooms. Great location walking to beach - mind you there construction. The septic oozing out of the driveway cap could use some attention.

I stayed a week and daily cleaning consists of trash pickup. I got clean towels once. Never new coffee pods had to look for myself. One day hung the sign for room cleaning nothing was done. I left at 9am returned at 8 pm. on a previous trip I tried talking to the manager and he was very rude did not care. Only channel I could get was Netflix it was in Spanish. Luckly my granddaughter was able to help get it in English. The only reason to stay there is the location.

This part of Malibu (Zuma beach), is this place to be if you’re looking for a LA getaway. The inn had everything we needed; ocean view, outdoor space, king bed. My only complaint would be the cleanliness of the place. Rooms definitely need a paint job and windows need to be cleaned. Bathroom is well kept but still it all got the job done. Would highly recommend if looking to stay outside of trendy Malibu (nobu area) and looking for something more scenic and secluded. Point dume hike is a must (unreal views). Also, would highly recommend a trip up to matador state park beach!

Absolutely horrible stay. GM was friendly and welcoming… but my god the cottage room has not been kept up or touched since I stayed here years ago. Smelt of mold and had black spots in corner of shower so we didn’t use it. Given you’re in Malibu and there is no ac in the rooms you leave your windows open for air and a breeze… No screens on windows made that impossible. The mosquitos and flys were flying in non stop so after being bitten we closed the windows and suffocated and sweat alll night long. No sleep. What a let down in a property I used to frequent regularly. Seems owners are waiting to sell it or completely tear it down.

For the cost of one night I was disappointed in how poorly maintained the room was. None of the window or door shutters worked correctly and there was a 1 inch gap at the bottom of the door. The door sill was missing. I had to put towels in the gap to prevent anything outside from crawling in. When you turn the bathroom light on it would turn itself on and off. Must be a short / open in that circuit. The lock to lock the door was a cheap handle lock made for an interior bedroom door. It was just myself and I can tolerate a lot but I would not advise anyone to stay there.

Spider webs everywhere, the property ia dirty and definitely not take care of. There are multimillion dollar homes around the corner of the property and it just doesn't add up.

The courtyard wasn't kept up, the seats were full of cowebs. The grass had water bottles and trash. The light fixtures looked like they were from a Halloween night. Just completely covered in spider webs....

The room was dated, the couch/pull out sofa was dirty and old. The tables had many digs and scratches. The counter also seen better days. The front door was dirty and had left over tape on it. Made it look super uncared for. Ohhh and a massive spider web on the light fixture running down to the door handle was a great way to start the trip.

The bathroom was actually nice...but the tub looked like it could use a power wash.

The fire place in the room almost killed us with the smell of gas. Turned on the switch and after 5-7 mins, we had to exit the room. It was too much. I had to use a portable charger to hold the window open as well as All the latches on the windows were broken. The glass was super dirty its was hard to see the ocean from inside.

And finally the smell, it smelled like sewage. Walking up and down the parking lot hill was truly nauseating.

Overall assessment of this property is 2 stars out of 5.

The overall property was very pretty but wasn’t very well kept. When I got in I was told I was staying in the only room attached to the lobby. I noticed that there was another room across that had a resident living there. While I had been throughly instructed that smoking was not allowed on the property and would result in a fine, I was greeted by the resident smoking multiple times during my stay. I was also kept up by the noise of another room above mine. The room was overall fine besides the bed being broken on one side. The bathroom had no sap, shampoo or conditioner. The location of the property is nice but to say it is walkable to anywhere is a stretch as it sits on a busy street without a sidewalk. The hill leading down to said street is quite steep and has a drain with a constant water flow that causes the already steep hill to become quite slippery and dangerous. The pool hours are 7am to 10pm but when I checked in they let me know it was 7 to 7 and when I followed up, asking if it was open till 10 they told me it was but I had to quiet if I wanted to go after 7pm. Which is fine but odd they would say it’s open until 10 if they don’t want guests going after 7pm. Overall, I would not recommend.

Hotels.com is representing a hotel that is falsifying the quality of their hotel. Their hotel had so much mold inside the room(s) that we couldn’t even stay there. We were forced to stay there one night which I ended up sleeping the night in my car because the amount of mold penetrated the air in the room. We tried to open the windows to get cross breeze so we could breathe fresh air, but some of the windows were missing screens. The toilet in the bathroom ran all night long so eventually, we had to shut the water off to the toilet. The light over the kitchenette turned off and on on its own through throughout the night. The room stated and showed pictures of a working fireplace put upon arrival it did not work. We were told that it might work the following week. The mold in the room was by far the worst part we couldn’t even breathe because it took your breath away the next morning when we went down to the office to let them know we were not able to stay another night because I have multiple sclerosis and a brain tumor and had just come from Cedar Sinai Hospital the following day. The man in the office told us we could not have a refund. So I asked to speak with the manager but he said he wasn’t there and he was out of town. Yet when hotels.com called after we had left the man we had spoken to was indeed the manager, and had lied to us. He still refused to refund us for the night hotels.com refused to refund us for that night as well even though I provided photos.

It was also freezing, which we found out on day two that the heat is functional, just not easy to figure out. We checked in after the front desk closed the first night, and our son did not not have any extra blankets or sheets. We had called ahead and asked for the couch to be made up as a bed.
Staff didn't care much, and as I was asking for spare blankets etc, another guest was in front of me checking out early due to the bugs in their room.
