Unbeatable location for the price
Safari Inn is a quiet and restful place with a nice spotless rooms. Swimming pool is kind of small but it's unbeatable location for the price paid though.

Universal Studios and Hollywood are really close to the hotel what was a main reason this plase was chosen. It was a very right pick.

Good!
Room was a good size and clean. Staff was very pleasant. Location is good, a short distance from Universal Studios. Plenty of decent places to eat nearby. Pool was small and free breakfast was nothing to write home about, they didn't even have real milk for the coffee, just the powder stuff. But my main concern was cleanliness, and I have no complaints about that.

Everything was OK but for how noisy it was. The walls are very thin and we were in front of the elevator. Do not let them put you near the elevator. Also request an upstairs room as the ceiling must me made of the cheapest material possible and you hear everything.

Ask about the movies filmed here
Very close drive to Universal studios. Free breakfast is super small, mini doughnuts and two pitchers of orange juice. More like a snack until you can find a breakfast place. Quiet hotel with a CVS pharmacy on block. Felt very safe and hotel room was clean. Monk recently filmed here along with others. Pool in the shape of the Safari sign. Average hotel.

Good Hotel
We booked this hotel last minute because of going to Universal Studio's Halloween Horror Nights. We arrived hotel, which was pretty easy to find, and thought it was a little sketchy looking on the outside. The receptionist didnt seem to be that thrilled and didnt smile (both when we checked in and checked out). The rooms were super roomy, and very well done. Alot of channels to chose from while other hotels dont give you the choice. The biggest thing I found to be bad, was not enough parking. If the parking lot was full, you had to either park on the main street or at the hotel right by them. Overall, it was a good stay with the beds being comfy and easy to fall asleep too after a long night of walking.

An OK Place To Stay
Was in California for my son's wedding. Wedding was great, the room was ok. Rather small for 3 adults. The Breakfast Bar consisted of some toast, small bagels, juice and coffee. The staff was very nice and the rooms clean. Parking lot was small and one evening we had no place to park. A good place to stay for the money, but I would not rate it four stars, 3.5 at the most.

The adjacent hotel had a nice diner that served good food and had room service to our motel. Other decent places to eat were within walking distance.

It fit our needs perfectly
We were there to visit relatives so didn't spend much time at the motel. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were clean. That is what is important to us. It was close to relatives home. A drug store and restaurants close by.
