    The room had a horrible smell The water was cold when trying to take a shower. The shower head was broken and had to be replaced. The lamps didn’t work. The room didn’t feel clean at all! The only thing that was convenient was the even I attended was in walking distance.

    We live out side of L.A. so when we come in to a show or concert we stay in a hotel. This hotel fit that bill perfect. It was within walking distance to our destination and we loved the food in the hotel. We will stay here again for sure the next time we need a hotel in L. A. for an overnight visit.

    Staff was extremely welcoming and helpful. As an older building i understand long term maintenance can affect pipes and room usage over time. The room was clean and comfortable for what we needed but we did notice some small cleanliness missed opportunities like higher on walls and bathroom sink/water.

    The rooms are small and not well appointed. There is vinyl plank flooring on the floors and walls of the bedroom and tile flooring on the floors and walls of the bathroom. It's clean which is nice, but not super cozy. There is no headboard, just a bed frame and mattress pushed up against a hard wall. There were only two cheap pillows on the bed with no additional pillows available in the room. There was only one night stand on one side of the bed with no lamp, light, or outlet to charge your phone. The other side had a floor lamp - so no nightstand at all, and again no way to charge your phone near the bed. Since we use our phones as alarm clocks as well, this was somewhat inconvenient. There was a small fridge in the room which was nice, but no coffee maker which we thought was unusual. Where the fridge used to be inside the dresser/cupboard was just a big empty useless space. There is no art on the walls which isn't really an issue - just makes the space seem sort of sparse and a bit neglected. There is a restaurant on site that serves decent food with a decidedly Korean flair. Again, nice. Nothing stellar, but at least you don't have to leave your hotel if you don't want to. It suited our purpose which was fine.

    I checked in late (after 10 PM) and tried to take a shower, but even after letting the water run for 20 minutes, only cold water came out. When I contacted the front desk, I was utterly baffled by their response: they told me that hot water would eventually come out if I just let it run a little longer. I travel frequently, but this was the first time I had ever encountered such a situation—it was absolutely absurd. I do not recommend this place.

    Zero stars!!!! Don't do it!!! Feb 2,2026 I booked a 1 king size standard room. I live over two hours away and arrived Feb 14,2026 at 11:45am for a 12:00pm check in. I was charged $10 for garage parking at the time of check in. I arrived early for an event we had later around 6pm. We go up to our room and it is NOT the room from the pictures. Our room was so small. The TV was small and didn't have service!! I informed the front desk and the maintenance worker said that the whole side of room had been out for 1 week without TV!!!! I was mad!! What to do for 6 hours after a long drive!!! So I decided I would iron my clothes for the evening. Well there's no irons. I called front desk and the provided me with an iron that ruined my clothes due to the old smelly water it had in the iron. It smelled horrible and messed up my outfit for the evening. Don't get me started on the bathroom, there was mold. The whole room had a smell of old buildings. I'm not sure how they haven't got shut down by the health department due to the dirtiness and health issues it can cause. NEVER STAY HERE

    The staff were very friendly, and the bed sheets were clean, so my stay for a few days wasn’t bad. However, the mattress squeaked a lot and the bed itself was uncomfortable, so I had back pain and didn’t sleep well. It was also disappointing that there was no microwave and no coffee provided. Still, thanks to the kind staff, I didn’t get angry or complain.

    Downside was that we needed to request new sheets. Not sure what was on the sheet when we pulled back the cover. Also water temperature and shower was not the best. I like hot water and good firm pressure. Other than that the attendants at guest services was nice and helpful. The hotel has that updated nostalgic feel and the price point is perfect.

    Room was clean, staff was very nice, however, the beds were old and not comfortable. The shower was newly remodeled but did not have shelving so I had to store things on the floor. The extra sink in the bedroom area did not work at all. Did not like that we were charged for parking although it was covered parking and decently lit. The surrounding area around the hotel did not appear very safe but we did not feel unsafe once inside. There was a nice size refrigerator and a safe in the room. The air-conditioning unit worked fine. The lobby restaurant is independent from hotel and does not open until 11 AM which is after checkout.

    The hotel was surprisingly nice, especially given the area, which was a pleasant shock. The room itself was incredibly small, with barely 2 feet of clearance on three of four walls—a tight squeeze through a short hallway to the restroom. The pillow covers were tarnished and dirty, which was disappointing, but overall, everything else was kept clean. The bed tilted oddly when sitting on the corner, yet it was still comfortable enough for a good night's sleep. It’s manageable for just one night if you're heading to a show at the Wiltern, but I definitely wouldn’t want to stay longer. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which was a comforting touch in such a cramped space.

    The room was hot when we entered because the air conditioner was off, when we turned it on, the bottom latch opened and large chunks of blackened, wet residue fell out and onto my bed. The tv was unplugged and took nearly 30 minutes to boot up, and the remote control was covered in a very sticky substance. The room was not very clean and came with little to no amenities. The beds were very uncomfortable as were the pillows, resulting a tiring, restless night for me. Beware of the surrounding areas of the hotel, very dirty with heaps of trash. Just overall not satisfactory. Very disappointing, I will never make the mistake of staying here again.

    Parking garage too limiting with taller vehicles. Rooms were a little outdated and old. Felt like the rooms could have been presented nicer. Restrooms needed to have better lighting and dual sinks and lid for the toilet seat.

    Stayed her for convenience for a show at the Wiltern as well as to Universal Studios. It’s great for that, and if you’re not going to stay in the room for long. The lobby was beautiful but the room was outdated and shabby. The mattress was sooo bad, firm, lumpy springs and the pillows were non-existent they were so flat. In the colder months I’d imagine their super thin cheap “blanket” if you can even call it that, would make you freeze. So bring your own pillow and blanket, we bought pillows. I’m actually surprised that our ac unit held up because it must have been an original from when the building was built, (1991) guess they skipped those during the 2005 renovation. Shower was nice, TV was sitting wonky and we weren’t able to turn it off with the remote, had to get up and push the button (no big d.) The dresser that the tv was mounted over, and the office table were gross dirty. Luckily I bring my own Lysol wipes, but after wiping them these stains were removable, this made me doubt cleanliness of the rest of the room and effectiveness of housekeeping. Over all, it’s alright and worth a low hundred/night. We did feel safe as they lock up tight after midnight. Including the garage. We came back after 2am a couple of nights and had to ask them to open the gate for us. Again, no big deal, and for the area I felt more comfortable that they did this.

    Upon check in, I was double charged, I was not given a receipt and I was treated poorly when I questioned the charge. Though they finally refunded the extra charge, it was a Saturday so I was out $300 for my trip until the bank processed the refund. The room was unreasonably hot and stuffy. The remote for the air conditioner didn’t work and is the only way to control the temperature. When I asked for assistance with this, I was told to read the guide on the table. It took several hours just to get the remote replaced. Meanwhile, it was 85° in the room. The beds were terribly uncomfortable. We ended up leaving at 6am due to how uncomfortable we were between the temperature and the beds. The only upside was the distance from our event.

    Glad I always carry my own bedding and pillow because their pillows stank like sweaty heads. Night lamps not working. They charge for their parking garage. They ask for a crazy $300 deposit for one night. Insaneeee

    The hotel room was old and run down. Barely any charging points in the room. The local area was also run down and lots of homeless people about. Don’t go out on your own if visiting this place. Incidental charge 300 dollar was excessive compared to the other 5 hotels we stayed at which were all cheaper to stay at and a lot better quality stay.

    Friendly staff, my friend and I left our key inside our room during the day and came back late night and realized our key was inside our room. The staff gave us another key free of charge. during the day, the staff was super attentive and another staff member had complimented our outfits and gave us recommendations on things to do in the area based on our age group.

    The lobby was absolutely stunning, the rooms however did not match. They were very small and subpar. The bed was squeaky and uncomfortable. They require a 300 deposit as well on top of what ever your rate was. I wouldn’t choose to stay there again. It was a okay hotel.

    The staff at this location were incredibly nice and helpful with accommodations. The room was spacious and had a great view of the outside. The con was the room was slightly dirty as the bedframe skirt had some markings from the previous stay. In addition, there was a fake eye lash on the mini fridge. All things considered like the price and accessibility, I would recommend staying at this hotel. Final comment, the restaurant connected to the hotel was great and had great music selection.

    Hotel was nicely located across the street from The Wiltern, the concert venue we went to. The hotel was clean and the check in staff was great. We ended up changing rooms because thr first room bed was not comfortable. The staff let us check out 2 other rooms to find a more suitable bed. Which was really nice of them. Our 2nd room was nice, standard king room. Bed was more comforable. I accidentally left a charger in the first room and the staff immediately helped and returnes the charger to me. Overall great one night stay. Thank you all so much!

    The service was fine but the room and hotel was dilapidated. The furniture was in poor shape (bubbled and chipped). The positive would be the proximity to the Wiltern Theater where we were attending a show. Also, the entire hotel smelled like stale food?!
