Modest but simple, classic, comfortable, clean and (relatively affordable) beach and ocean facing motel with plenty of parking which is in scant supply elsewhere on this strip. Malibu Pier, beaches and park within walking distance.

The M is a true beach motel. It is on the inland side of Pacific Coast Hwy - with a number of restaurants within walking distance about a mile each way). The bathroom was clean and the room was comfortable.

Great hotel for a weekend getaway. Located right across the street from the beach. Very close to all the popular dining restaurants. As warned it is on PCH so you will hear the cars driving by. But that goes for any hotel on PCH. Would recommend for a little getaway.

Stayed here for my surfing trip to Surfrider Beach, about a 20 minute walk but much more affordable than the closer options. A comfortable place to stay with helpful staff. Would stay here again and recommend.

Easy walk to Dreamland — a must visit — the beach and Malibu Pier. Great restaurant options. Sorta hidden, rustic upper patio great for viewing the ocean early morning wildlife and the sunset. Porpoise pods and diving pelicans!

The room and property was just not very clean, and the management was not around. I never saw anyone at the front desk. I was simply advised that my room was open and the key was inside when I arrived.

Our room smelled like Ben Gay. When we complained we were told that the cleaning staff had left for the day. When I asked for fresh sheets in hopes that it would help with the smell I was told that the cleaning staff had left for the day and could only be offered fresh pillow cases. The room was very dark with insufficient lighting. The bed was atrociously uncomfortable. You would think that with all of the Ben Gay in the room I wouldn’t have woken up with a stiff back. Nevertheless I did. I get it- location, location, location. I was there for a wedding. Next time I’ll commute to the event. Never again!

I don't know why this place gets a bad wrap. You're obviously not staying in in a 5 star hotel, but this place was clean and safe. 10/10 would go again.

Experienced a power outage while sleeping, Use of CPAC was interrupted until power was restored. Never experienced in a hotel but may be utility company issue.

Really nice little boutique hotel right in the heart of Malibu with great amenities and nice rooms.
4.0 / 10.0
Staff is friendly, after checking in we went straight to our room and settled in, lied on the bed to relax for a little bit after a long drive, suddenly my wife yelled and saw a big spider crawling on her head it was on the pillow! Not a good first impression of the cleanliness of the property, the road noise is a major turn off, really hard to sleep at night even if they’re providing ear plugs for the guests to wear…

4.0 / 10.0
Check in was easy at this little hotel built into a hill. Our room was near PCH so it was quite noisy all night, which explains the earplugs left in our room. The decor was cozy and the room was comfortable.
6.0 / 10.0
The rooms are very basic but clean. However my sink was clogged and took forever to drain dirty water. Prices for any hotel room are exorbitant in Malibu so this one was overpriced as well

The sheets were frayed. The door key stuck in the lock . There was no phone to call lobby. There was no ice. Parking was not adequate . Only 2 lousy paper cups in the room
2.0 / 10.0
Old run down. Grounds needed major fixing. No elevator for carrying luggage up steep cement stairs. Just a major disappointment for an expensive night.
3.0 / 10.0
Noisy and no administrative help. The office staff comes in when they essentially need or want to. I had to wait the entire morning to pay them before I could enjoy my day. Sign on the office door posted a time staff would arrive and it was off by several hours. When calling the number they responded they could only text. Highway close is very noisy even with the hotel provided earplugs. Nice enough place but shady business practices and definitely not the place to stay to sleep.
