What Previous Guests Had to Say
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the spacious and clean rooms at The Kinney, noting the comfortable beds and fun, modern decor. Its location off Kinney Boulevard provides convenient access to dining options and puts you within a short distance of the beach, and the heated plunge pool and hot tub are a plus for many. While some have mentioned that it feels like an older space with cosmetic updates, the quad area is generally considered fun and relaxing. Fresh coffee in the morning is a welcome touch.

clean roomcomfortable bedmisleading impressionnon-functioning lights
The room was lovely and clean. the bed was comfortable. I had good rest. housekeeping every day felt luxurious. the location provides convenient access to nearby restaurants.
the professional pictures in the description gave a slightly misleading impression, as it felt more like an old motel with cosmetic updates. half of the lights in my room didn't work, a small inconvenience .

Awesome Stay with Great Amenities

modern decorfriendly staffmissing breakfast
I found the hotel decor to be quite nice and modern. The staff was friendly and accommodating, assisting with directions. The ping pong table was a fun addition and the parking was easy to access at a reasonable price.
The hotel did not offer breakfast, disappointing since it was stated otherwise and I had to find out upon arrival.

The king bed was comfortable and featured supernice pillows for a restful sleep. The room itself was spacious, clean, and provided a relaxing environment. Attention to detail was evident in the room's decor and artistic touches.
Dining
8/10
The hotel does not provide breakfast, so I found Noah's Bagels within a short walk. This offered a convenient alternative for a morning meal. The absence of hotel breakfast was the only downside.
Location
9/10
The hotel is located near the beach and walkable to several coffee shops. Bike rentals are available, made exploring the Venice Boardwalk very easy. The hotel is in a great location near many cafes and restaurants.
