FOUND Hotel, Santa Monica

Location was very good, we walked to Boards coffee shop and Ono Hawaiian bbq for lunch / dinner - good prices and food. Everywhere else we drove. The communal kitchen was nice, a coffee machine served us coffee or mochas. It also has a toaster and microwave located there. The extra large frig was a good idea to have, but our small frig fit the bill. The staff was attentive and friendly, always a good thing! Rooms were comfortable and updated. Good lighting.

It doesn't come with the same amenities as a usual hotel, but if all you need is a stylish room in a great location with no fuss, then it's perfect. Good to have a small, but useful gym too.

The room is bigger than I expected, and the place is very clean. I stayed there for 7 nights, and they cleaned our room daily, which was really great. There is also a common kitchen area where you can heat food in the microwave (though there are no plates), and free coffee and hot chocolate are available. The front desk staff is responsive and helpful. Additionally, there is a guard on the ground floor, which makes you feel very safe. You can contact the staff using their internal website, so there’s no need to ask for everything via phone or face-to-face.

Absolutely loved my stay at FOUND Hotel Santa Monica! The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful from check-in to check-out. My room was spotless, spacious, and super-comfortable - perfect after long days exploring the city. The shared kitchen (with a fantastic coffee machine!) was a real bonus. Location-wise, it’s close to everything yet feels quiet, and I always found safe street parking. I’d happily stay again and recommend it to anyone visiting Santa Monica.

Great 3-night stay at this hotel. Comfortable bed, mattress on the softer side. My room was spacious, and the bathroom is nicely renovated with good lighting. Good pressure in the shower. My room was on the main road, but there's little noise at night—plus the hotel left ear plugs in the room in case of need. If you stay here, you must try Darya restaurant across the road. Fantastic Persian food. I ate there two nights in a row.
