You walk past the skeevy frat bar next door, through the skeevier parking lot in back, down the skeeviest stairway and -BAM!- you are in a sweet little lounge where the tunes are tight, drinks are...

The entrance to this place is behind 'Up and Over' -- basically look behind where you'd expect it to be. The valet is quick and easy (only $6) and the cover on Sat night was only $5! There was no...

I have been going to The Room in Santa Monica for years when I was living down in SoCal. This was the standard place when my friends and I would be hanging out on a Friday or a Saturday, look at our...

Same ownership as Barcopa (the nightclub located on Main St. in Venice), The Room is an inconspicuous, stylish club that's dimly lit with a cool, laid back vibe.The Room is slightly larger club then...

I always make it a point to go to The Room. There is no signs, you walk thru the back, and its dark. Its the total hidden hotspot, a place to go to chill. The music is always great and the drink prices are...

as soon as you walk through the red velvet curtain to get inside, prepare for a flash of darkness as your eyes adjust to the very low lighting at this fun little hole-in-the-wall place. there's room to dance,...

The Room is a great all-around place to hang out, drink and dance. Great music and a suprisingly diverse crowd. A little hard to find - which adds a little to its allure. One warning - the very dark lighting...

I go for the hip hop dancing. I don't know why it says the dancing isn't good, because the dancefloor is extremely crowded, but it's also very small.

I lived in Santa Monica for a year before I heard about The Room, and even then it was hard to actually find the place. Contrary to what the review says, they ask that guys don't wear shorts, but they don't...

People are usually skeptical of bars/clubs that do not charge cover or enforce a dress code but The Room gets away with attracting an eclectic and happening crowd despite it's free cover. It's a small venue...

Though this place is hidden and quite hard to find, it can get very busy on a Friday night. The lounge is dark with loud music playing. Drinks average around $7 and if you're at a booth, the waitress does make...

It's one of those little dark Hollywood bars. More down to earth crowd than most, drinks aren't redic, real LOUD music, usually lots of cuties. Worth checking out.
