Good for an overnight or two - business trip.
A professional front desk staff... Though room needs some updating (I,e. wall paper was old & peeling, carpet old & stained, bedding, towels, shower curtain - Just old). With respects to cleanliness... I found long hair samples on the pillow, under the sheets, stuck onto the hair dryer & shower faucet (perhaps an over zealous housekeeper? - Lol). Unable to connect to Wifi & parking is minimum $25 overnight parking (minus tip). On the positive side, it was convenient for my commute from the city.

Average at best
Flight got in a earlier and staff wouldn't accommodate me unless I paid for an extra day. Location is great if you need to be close to Downtown LA, but it can take 30 minutes to get to WeHo and/or Beverly Hills because of traffic. You get what you pay for here. TVs in the rooms are horrible and rooms are average at best.

park two blocks down for free - otherwise you are subject to $25 per day at the hotel valet which is extremely over priced.

Only if you aren't really spending that much time at the hotel...
The hotel is subpar, very nice reception, but the rooms belong more to a suburb hotel than one that is in downtown.

Horrible
Give me a break....how could the hotel still rent rooms as dumpy and old the room was. Why I give it a 1 is the carpet was so disguisting (stains, holes, mold) I can't believe they can rent a room like that without a sanitary issue.

Overall good hotel.
This hotel was a great deal as far as LA prices go. It was close to Hollywood, Beverly Hills and Union Station..and located on Wilshire Blvd. which was good. The room was small, and so was the bathroom. The water pressure in the bathroom was low. I stayed here for one night so for me it was a good hotel for the price and for one night. The valet parking was 25.00..that seemed excessive.
