Compared to where we stayed when we passed thru LA last August this was much better value. The staff accepted up cheerfully at midnight and we had a comfy night and a average breakfast served by an above average lady. We paid for 2 nights because we weren't flying our until 11pm and needed to shower etc before the long... More

I recently stayed at the Jolly Roger Hotel (MDR, CA) for two nights (April 1-2, 2012) after moving out of my Venice home and just prior to relocating to the East Coast. The staff could not have been more accommodating, friendly and professional form the moment I made the reservation and throughout my stay. Kudos to Awad, Donna and the... More

The hotel is quite dated but for the money you can't really complain! Good location plus bonus of breakfast and coffee to start your day. Good pub just round the corner too! Robin who was in the breakfast room was such a character, so refreshing to have staff who are interested in what you have to say!

I was really impressed with the Jolly Roger. Yes, it's old, but very well maintained and super clean. I got the impression that the owners/staff really take pride in what they do.

Jolly Roger went beyond our expectations: very friendly staff, large rooms, excellent breakfast, free Wifi, and all this only 2 Km from wonderful Venice Beach. Only con: the bath/shower is a bit aged...

This hotel is not fancy. But, for the price, the location is great, the rooms are clean and well kept and includes a continental breakfast. Hotel also has free parking and wi-fi. Perfect for the budget traveler.
