my partner and I stayed here for a concert at the Greek Theatre, we loved the area as it had many dining options and places to shop as well within walking distance. my only problem was that a couple nights the parking lot was full when we’d come back in the evening so we weren’t sure if we had to park elsewhere even though we were staying at this inn. thankfully after speaking to the front desk, they let us have a spot in a restricted area on the property still. there’s more rooms than there are parking spots so maybe there should be a rule that those staying on property get one parking spot at all times to avoid this issue with future guests.

My sister and I stayed here for a concert at the Greek Theatre. The staff were nice and the whole place was well kept up. The only thing was the carpet did have a faint smell of urine. Maybe like a pet peed on the floor, a good carpet washing would do the trick. Other than that hotel was nice and had a great stay!

The front desk staff was very accomodating. The bed was terrific and the linens were lovely. Things are very expensive in that area and their price was better than most. I would definitely stay there again.
