It is a motel on Pacific Coast Highway. Still, it is clean and well maintained. The traffic noise did not bother me at all. And the staff was very helpful. They let me check in very early. I needed a cab for the next day and they ordered it for me. The owner even phoned to see where the cab was when it looked like it would be late. It was a great experience.

I've stayed here at least five times. I don't need a luxury motel. Harbor City is a great off the beaten path to stay. No carpet, just a smooth wood or laminate floor, refrigerator and microwave suit me just fine. Always stop off at Panda Express across the street and bring my dinner in at check in. First time I visited a few years ago, things were a bit rough, but no significant complaints now. If you want a step above motel 6, it's here!

I have stayed here a few times as well as other local properties many other times and the area seems quite safe. The room is just fine for an inexpensive overnight stay. This is the perfect stop over for cruises out of San Pedro. There is a local bus directly from LAX. The bus stop in Harbor City is right in front of Panda Express just yards from the hotel where I always pick up dinner before checking in. The next morning I catch a direct local bus to the cruise port.
The first time I came they asked for a key deposit, but never since. Either they changed policy or they don't bother for returnees.

Good place to stay if on a budget. Room was clean, very convenient to get transit at the door, had option for local food. One bus from LAX to this property only cost $1.75 instead of car service. Staff was very nice and accommodating as well. Im happy that I selected this property

What has Humanity come to. GREED

It was horrible, the front desk rep, comes off nice and polite but will chop you up the second you slip.
She even told me it was okay to check out early and she would refund me the next day.
I cleaned up room, returned key and she said have a good night and she will refund me the next day amount. Only there for 10 of 48 hours. She didn’t refund me, then had me call hotels.com only to deny that she agreed to that, then I spoke with her to use the next day since I paid for it!! NOPE!! She rented the room to Someone new..
NO REFUND, LIAR, NO JUSTICE!. DONT LET the friendly answer foul you.
