Restaurant: Food and staff were very good. Housekeeping staff were always pleasant & smiling, and able to help. There are quiet hours, but during daytime, the Brazilian music outside adds to a great atmosphere. Nice vegetation and trees (including a pomegranate!) which is not the usual at a "motor hotel." The outside color scheme is varied, dazzling and fun.

The floors in the room seem dirty. Housekeeping should wash the floors since they are tile.

This place is absolutely perfect. I was a solo traveler, in town for a concert, and this place was excellent on all levels. The aesthetic is gorgeous. Plants, music, tables, excellent design that makes you want to read a book and have a coffee or beer outside your room the whole time. The rooms were also cute. Clean, comfortable, directtv, air conditioning, heat, etc. There's parking. The area felt safe. Great location. Great value.

Nothing. The rooms aren't too big but they're not small either. I'm in a chain hotel as we speak and the room at villa brasil was the same

I loved that this is a family-run motel with adjoining restaurant. They obviously take pride in making this a welcoming haven for travelers. Office staff is very friendly as are the restaurant employees. The room was well-equipped. I had a delicious dinner at the restaurant as well! I highly recommend this motel. That it had a little touch of Brasil was even more special.

I would love to see more of the lovely floral mural painting on the walls of the room! That would carry the special touch that exists downstairs to the room

The room was well appointed and very clean. Cute little dining table all set for enjoying. The bed was very comfortable and the pretty bed spread was a very special touch. It made the room feel very cozy. Cafe Brasil is right next door and at my request they put on the baseball game for me.

The only thing that I didn't care for was the proximity of the room to the laundry room and housekeeping. It was not loud or disruptive by any means. It just felt "busy". Which actually is just saying that everything was being well taken care of - which is a good thing.

Culver City proved to be a good location for our various activities. Villa Brasil was clean, reasonably priced and had free on-site parking. The décor is charming and warm. The room was comfortable, with plenty of storage and spots to sit and read or eat. They kindly stocked the room with coffee/tea materials, and some fruit, soda and candy bars, which was sweet. The wifi was good. I also appreciated that even though we were on the ground floor, we could open the curtains and even the windows without anybody looking in.

For the price, I can't add much. The neighborhood is gentrifying, which means it's mixed in various ways. You can walk to coffee shops and yoga studios....and there's a more downscale motel next door. But we felt perfectly safe in the motel and I walked alone each morning with no concerns.

This place let me savor Latin American hospitality without leaving the USA. The well-stocked kitchenette, hand made tiles in the shower and floors, roomy armours, vibrant ambience, and unexpected treats made me feel like a welcome guest in an extraordinary place. Every detail was placed with joy.

I worry about not being able to make it to locations because my local airport has unpredictable weather, but I believe this place would not take advantage of me. If I discover I was wrong, I'll let others know.

Place was unique and just great. A real surprise. Owner and staff beyond helpful and delightful with one exception. Booked with my 14 lb very well behaved mini poodle. When I checked in I was told by “manager” over intercom the pet friendly rooms were all full. I remonstrated and found the owner. He was great and got room 107 cleaned and ready and we had a wonderful stay. BTW, the Brazilian cafe attached is really good!

See above about issue with my pet Juno

The rooms were pleasant and comfortable - everything was clean, the furniture was in good shape, nothing was worn or scruffy. It felt well looked after and cared for. The central courtyard is cheerfully painted and decorated, and the staff were always helpful. The Cafe Brasil was a great place for a reasonably-priced meal. We've stayed in a few places around Culver City and Santa Monica and this was definitely the best of them.

Could have used a guide to operate the A/C-fan-heating system - it was inscrutable!

The Brazilian menu food at the restaurant associated with this lovely little boutique motel was incredibly delicious, flavorful and generous in its portions. We adored the decorations and the laid-back bossa nova music piped into the motor court area (where cute little outdoor tables and chairs are located).

We had a bit of difficulty finding a way to heat up our unit, when the outdoor temps fell unexpectedly. We didn’t have much in the way of heavy blankets or thick comforter on the bed. Maybe one of those kept in the closet for those rare cold nights would be helpful?

Enjoyed regional food in your restaurant, as well as bright colors and vivid landscaping to really let us know we were in Brazil. I found table set up for meals, and numerous documents and appliances on almost every surface, which had to be consolidated, stacked, or removed before I could set down anything. Too much clutter. All pertinent, just in the way of move-in

noted under clutter above. Other than that your facilities met or exceeded our expectations, served our needs, and we can honestly say there was nothing we didn't like.
