Our room was clean - bed was comfortable. There were 2 plastic chairs and a shelving unit to use as a closet. The bathroom was very small. We could clearly hear the conversation in the room next door and my husband thought I was having a shower in the morning - it was the next room shower. Morning traffic starting... More

The room was pleasant, nice balcony however noisy road as the motel is on the pacific highway. No air con but ceiling fan. No coffee/tea facilities. Large bathroom, very stylish. Comfy bed. Good price for 1 nights stay. Excellent beachs.

This is a very modern motel, large wooden floors.  The Ocean view was only just there, at an angle obscured by planting and building on other side of road so don't book a room purely on the basis of an ocean view. Balcony very small not big enough to swing a cat on, no chairs to sit out on.  ... More

This place Is cute and clean. There is a very beautiful walkway behind the hotel that gives beautiful views of the ocean. The only negative advice I would give to fellow travelers is that this place has no air conditioning and the windows have coverings that allow all light to come through. But remember, I say this after choosing to... More

Malibu motel is on the PCH (I know it's a little bit nosey &... More

A geometrically innovative layout and modern industrial decor were pleasant surprises from this outwardly unpretentious motel. With a partial ocean view and a balcony, my 2nd floor room granted me the "weekend at the "beach" ambience. Unfortunately, the beach was across the PCH and not easily accessed. The walls were thin, the highway loud, and the cacophany of clippity cloppity... More

This motel is in a good location with restaurants, groceries, etc. The furnishings are very sparse and there are no wash clothes, and they do not have ice. Their parking lot is small. It was clean. There are no closets in the rooms, just a frame to hang things. There is a nice small pool area. It is not the... More

On the good side, the room was clean though sparsely furnished (no dresser, no closet); the bed was acceptable. But the windows and walls were so thin they might as well not have been there at all. I could hear conversations in the next room (not yelling, mind you, just conversations) and the noise from Pacific Coast Highway was so... More

I am convinced this is the place Jim Morrison stayed when he penned the line, "The cars hiss by my window like the waves down on the beach." The road noise is incessant & brutal. I will also corroborate that the walls are paper thin. I will add that the off-angle design of the rooms (which does do a nice... More

If you are looking for a cheap place to stay in Malibu, and there are not very many, I would suggest the Malibu Motel. We have stayed here 3 years in a row during our road trip to California and each stay was for 2 to 3 nights. They are modern rooms with a clothing rack for a closet. Nice... More
