We had a very short stay, but the staff were welcoming and accommodating. The rooms are clean and spacious and feels like old LA. The perks offered are also great additions especially for families with younger kids. Our 6 year old was absolutely sold with the popsicle hotline and snacks. Looking forward to booking here again for a longer stay.

Excellent family hotel. The amenities are truly awesome with free snacks, ice cream, soft drinks and more. It is a great overall place to stay and so close to the Hollywood Walk of Fame and other great local attractions. The rooms are large and comfortable, though slightly dated and some things that could use maintenance (like broken door knobs). I would recommend especially for families with younger kids.

Amazing staff and perfect family hotel for exploring Hollywood. Free sodas, ice cream, snacks and of course the legendary popsicle hotline. Nice to have a room with microwave and oven so we could cook for ourselves (there is a Target 10min walk away). Rooms are looking a little tired but that shouldn’t impact the overall experience.
