Good value
I booked this room through a special value, and I believe I got a good deal. Clean rooms, great staff. Was able to take a cab to local areas like Santa Monica and LAX with ease.

Nice and contemporary
Stayed here on my last visit to LA. The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel has a contemporary feel to it. Some of the amenities i.e. bathtub and sink are a little old or have cracked surfaces. But nothing too alarming and not a safety issue. Great, tasty breakfast buffet. Close to LAX and pacific hwy. I would definititely stay here again.

Um, seemed cooler than it really was....
We had very high expectations of this hotel as staying at other Joie de Vivre brand hotels numerous times, so, possibly our expectations were too high. We arrived late at night and had an easy enough check in. Upon arriving to the room, fine/good/clean. There were a lot of information about the trendy lights in the room (there's a 6" stick of lights that change color via remote), and cheeky-wanna-be information. For sure, they were/are trying too hard. The writings weren't even funny....But, we did notice there is a photo booth in the lobby and a "Transonic lounge, staff favorite" on the 3rd floor, along w/ "not your average vending" on the 4th floor. Ok, great--we'll check it out in the AM. The photo booth (aka: mac computer that takes pictures): broken/out of commission. The transonic lounge, locked, but from what we could see: a room w/ a bunch of brightly colored bean bag chairs, and the vending--just plain old vending machines. Nothing exciting or out of the norm at all. Overall, hotel is clean and was quiet enough. Tries wayyyyyyy too hard to be cool & trendy and comes up very short. Just a hotel. The End.

Is this the 3rd World or LA?
Unbelievable how for a 4 day stay that there was no air conditioning at all with room temperatures well above 80 degrees. We asked for fans for the room and were provided with a single small fan that provided little if any relief. Only a small single window could open so circulating and eliminating the stale air was impossible. The desk staff daily promised it would be fixed by that evening but it never happened. We learned other patrons were given gratis breakfasts and parking for the inconvenience, but not us. We had stayed at this property before and really thought it was good value. However this unpleasant experience soured us for good and a great value in the past, became valueless. One star because of location and cleanliness. That might even be kind on our part!

Great product, poor people !
I love this place because it helps me keep visitors close to home and its a straight shot between LAX and home. But the personell service wasnt great this time. They always had a tone like I owed them something. I have personally stayed here and dont remember it being like that. I also wanted to send a SHOUT-OUT to the mangers, there should be more "little things" for customer. How do you guys NOT HAVE a map of L.A ? Or tourist guides ? Or anything that is helpful for that matter. This is still a great value for the $$ but please dont slip into comformity.

Convienent, Contemporary Hotel
Hotel was in a convenient location, trendy decor. Rooms were small, somewhat dark, color scheme was dark blue/white. That said, the bed was comfortable and everything worked well including the free wifi. $20/day valet was a surprise. Nice casual dining/bar next door. Staff were polite and attentive.
