The room was nice, but basically the same as your typical $100 room. The air conditioning was not working well and the room remained hot. I mentioned it to the staff on my out to town and she said that they would fix it. They didn't. I was also disappointed that I had to pay an additional fee to park in the hotel parking lot. When I pay this much for a mediocre room, I not only don't expect to pay to park, I would expect valet parking. The sliding glass window to the balcony had large cracks in it and the lock was broken. They had a cheap jury rigged latch instead of replacing the damaged door.The staff member that checked me in was not very friendly and not helpful. To their credit the breakfast buffet was pretty good. The chef was friendly and genuinely wanted to make his patrons happy. Overall it was a $100 experience with a price tag. five times that amount.
Staff very professional and helpful. Great breakfast! Broken elevator. Clean.
Staff was great, The hotel is not in a good area. Free breakfast was ok at best.
Very comfortable hotel. Staff was very nice and the hotel was kept clean and facilities were accommodating. Pool is nice. Morning breakfast is good. Only negative is that the neighborhood is not the best.
Hotel was comfortable a spacious. I had a credit card delivered to the hotel and they charged me $5. Wasn't happy about that. Breakfast was excellent. Pool was large, clean and private. Hotel is very secure, area surrounding the hotel was not.
Well we stayed there because it is super close to Los Angeles Childrens Hospital. We stayed there about 2 years ago and I had an amazing opinion of it back then.However this time was different. We had a reasonable price about 120us that night but when i got there they charged me 100us for a deposit that i was not aware of and 26.50us for parking lot. Then unfortunately we needed to stay unexpectedly another night there and when i tried to book that Monday night online the price of the room was 356us. To top it all off the restroom was in bad need of maintanance, you cuould here all the noise from the hallways inside the room and there was no water bottles in the room. The good points of the hotel were that the staff was friendly, the room was very clean, the breakfast is quite nice and the internet works really well.
horrible experience. - very noisy, maybe you can get 3 hours sleep at most. - tiny bathroom. - hidden charges (suprise!)
Our stay at the Hollywood hotel was adequate, but we paid a premium price since everything was pretty much booked. The rooms were clean but had uninviting fake wood floors instead of carpet. Our sink had a very large piece missing (a point the desk clerk warned me about so they have obviously let this go for a while). The place was clean and the breakfast was very good for a hotel offering. Beds were comfortable and towels and sheets were clean. My issue is that it was overpriced. They charged an extra $80. for our fourth person in the room, and an additional $27.00 for parking our car. I will not stay here again unless I am stuck like I was this time with no other hotels available. Comparable hotel rooms would go for much less.
The staff were really nice. The room was mostly updated, but very clean. The breakfast buffet was a nice touch. Convenient location, but seemed a little sketchy. I would stay there again because I like quirky hotels and locations, but I don't think I would recommend this to a first time LA tourist.
Room not fully clean hair on floor and had a horrible oder
First room was bad..still had pee in the toilet. They switched us to a much better room
Nice, comfortable hotel - updated and charming interiors. Close to all.
This was a particularly meh experience for me. I arrived a little early to check in (2:15 PM). Most normal / mainline hotels would be able to accommodate, but apparently not this one. I was simply told that no rooms are available, you can't check in now. That was it. No apology, no nothing, and when I just stood there, I was asked anything else? They do have breakfast in the morning. I wasn't able to partake as I had to be at an event by 6:30 AM both mornings I was in town. Service overall was not the best. I will say that the housekeepers do a good job here. The room décor was sparse, and the marble floor was a bit odd (isn't this a slip risk?). The parking price at ~$24 a day wasn't bad. The location is also pretty good if you're looking to explore Hollywood or West Hollywood. Was it a horrible experience? no. Would I stay here again? Probably not.
I enjoyed my stay here. There were nice places tp explore nearby. I was saddened by the lack if hot water in the early afternoon and the lack of heat. The comedy club downstairs is a fun way to spend an hour or so in the evening.
The hotel is nice in what it provides. This is a great value for the dollar. The hotel is located near supermarkets and other stores if you need to walk to grab something. It's not to far away from major highways or attractions. Watch walking around there at night.
I was so happy with the hotel. George and Anna were amazing, they gave restaurant recommendations and took pictures of us. Loved them both! And the food was great too. Beautiful pool and good location from the sightseeing on Hollywood Blvd.
A grand old hotel with lots of great amenities and in a great location. Easy walk to the Metro Stop which we used to travel a few stops and arrive a Universal Studios. The staff was super friendly, the room was well appointed and comfortable. I was never able to log onto the wireless network, but didn't take the time to seek assistance with the issue. My room was located on the first floor facing the street and during the night there was quite a bit of traffic including two sirens from either police or ambulance service. They have a great pool area and a very nice central quad both have comfortable searing areas. The complimentary breakfast was over the top with custom made omelets by Juan, the best.
Hotel area a little sketchy but if you're driving and not walking it's ok and easy access to everywhere. Gated and guarded parking. Very friendly staff, Complimentary breakfast and happy hour appetizers in the courtyard which was just beautiful. Room was good size, comfortable and clean, although the shower tiles could use a little more attention. AC worked just great. Pool area very nice and clean as well. Will stay here again!
The hotel was okay but the pics I saw online looked different than the room we got. The room was very small and outdated. The bathroom was dirty and the everytime we got a new towel there was somebody else's hair on them. The location is good if your planning on traveling to different areas. We went to downtown, Hollywood,Beverly hills,Santa Monica, Knotts Berry Farm and Universal Studios and the hotel was a decent distance from all places, otherwise it's not exactly a nice area. We were excited about the breakfast from all the reviews but were let down. Not many options and the woman chef wasn't very nice and would make stuff for other ppl but then tell me I have to go into the other line for the same thing. My fiance didn't like the food so we only had it twice and then went elsewhere.

near the busy street, can't get sleep at all.

super terrible service and hospitality
