Review summary for: ホテル サンタモニカ(大人専用)
Positive Reviews
Clean and well-maintained rooms
Multiple guests commented that the property and rooms felt clean and well cared for, with good housekeeping and a pleasant sense of cleanliness throughout the accommodation.
Spacious rooms and bathrooms
Reviewers frequently noted large rooms and generous bathroom space (including wide baths/jacuzzi in some rooms), making stays comfortable compared with other hotels in the same price range.
Friendly, accommodating staff
Staff were described as polite, helpful and accommodating — delivering breakfast on time, responding kindly to requests, and creating a welcoming atmosphere for many guests.
Good value and extra amenities
Several guests felt the hotel offered excellent value for money and provided extra amenities beyond a typical budget hotel, including attractive interiors and useful in-room features.
Quiet and comfortable for rest
Guests appreciated that rooms and air-conditioning were quiet, allowing a restful sleep and an overall comfortable stay.
Negative Reviews
Remote location with few nearby shops
Multiple reviewers mentioned the hotel is located in a suburban area with limited nearby convenience stores or supermarkets, so guests should buy supplies before arrival or allow extra time for errands.
Outdated / love‑hotel style may surprise some guests
A few guests found the decor and some in-room features to be retro or clearly in a love‑hotel style; while some enjoyed the classic feel, others felt uncomfortable with adult-themed machines or signage and would prefer a more neutral presentation.
Cash-only payment and ATM inconvenience
Several reviews reported that the hotel or payment machines accept cash only; guests arriving late were asked to withdraw money from an ATM some distance away, which can be inconvenient.
Reception response and room access issues
Some guests experienced slow or difficult front‑desk contact (having to call and wait for staff) and, in some room types, the need to request staff to open doors because keys were not provided, which reduced convenience.
Occasional housekeeping/amenity inconsistencies
A small number of reviewers noted issues such as hair in the bathroom drain or promised services (e.g., breakfast or complimentary items) not being available as expected; these appear infrequent but worth noting.
