The seaway is my favorite place to stay when i want to get away for a few day's. Its really quiet and the staff is very friendly the rooms are the perfect size for me and you can park right upto your door. If it had a coffee maker then that would be outstanding
Family run motel. Very quiet and just the basics. I’ve stayed here twice and would stay again. Beds are hard but other than that, it’s clean, well kept, conveniently located and a good place to stay.
Though it looked quite grim, and the area was not great, it was a decent stay for one night at a price less than most other places. Also, I expected it to be noisy, but rooms are situated in such a way as to block most traffic/disruptions.
I love the serenity. The clean environment. The man is quite nice. But the lady that works there is quite something. Not friendly at all and shes grumpy.
Cheep and clean motel for a
short stay in LA. Rooms are clean with enough space and free parking. Close to Santa Monica (15 min. with car). Only the staff is rude and could be more friendly.

Liked: Cleanliness
It’s cleaner than most hotels in the area, but it’s still a little dingy. Our room had chipped up base boards and a broken shower handle. Not the end of the world, but also simple enough stuff to not make your customers deal with it. Front desk wasn’t all that warm either. Checking in was like getting a stern talking to from my parents 😅
I enjoy my stays at the seaway the front desk is always helpful and the rooms are always clean there's only 3 things that need attention one is the mini fridge there are no shelves the 2nd is the wifi is very poor it doesn't reach the back rooms and finally the a/c unit dosen have loovers and doesn't shut off by its self

Disliked: Staff & service
More like C word Motel. Lady at front desk was incredibly rude and condescending at check in, making me repeat the check out time of 11am to her like I was her student or something. Then had the nerve to knock on my door at 10 am and remind me check out was at 11. Room was fine but nah.
Room was very clean and so was the parking lot. The only thing is the amount of car traffic in the area around the motel a very slow go.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Front lady was rude. Not nice.
It was a very difficult communication with her.
We got only 1room key so I asked her another one but She said I have to pay $5 for 2nd key. (Money back when it returned. I don’t wanna do that . It’s too much work ) so I was not happy but gave up. Then she started making another key.. I was like what was that frustrating conversation?? Now I got 2keys…
But problem again . When I get back room. That key was not working . I went to front and talked to that lady.
She said that only 1key is work. Other one no working anymore.
I was like what u talking about ???
So why u gave me 2nd key ???
And why she didn’t explain ????
Anyway … too much ….so stupid .
This is a "motor inn" from the 1950s. The facility has been pretty well maintained and is pretty clean. While "basic," okay. No ice machine (no pool and we have not used a pool in a motel in YEARS) and the only vending machine is a Pepsi machine. For touring the north side of Los Angeles, which we have plans for in the near future, we are going back to the Seaway Motel.
This room was gross and the lady at the front quizzed me on check out time!?!? She put us in a smoking room and there was mold in the fridge, cigarette burns all over, and stains on the mattress. After I was there for an hour, we decided to go somewhere else and then they offered a nonsmoking room. I declined, if that’s the state of a smoking room then I don’t understand why they’d care to keep up the other rooms anyway.
