The hotel is generally clean and the staff is friendly and helpful. However, the surrounding area is often described as unsafe and dirty, with a significant presence of homeless people. Noise, either from outside or inside the hotel, is also a common complaint.

    The rooms and the facility was clean. The staff was super helpful and professional. I appreciated the safeguards in place, like keyed entry, and keyed elevator access, as this hotel is in downtown. We did not use the pool or fitness center on this stay.

    This hotel overall is just as you would expect a Holiday Inn Express to be. The problem is 100% its location. It is right by MacArthur Park. This is a very sketchy area. When we pulled up to the hotel, there were numerous homeless individuals camped out on the sidewalk directly in front. People selling random goods, appearing to be completely out of it on drugs and arguing with each other. We were nervous to park our car there or sleep there. Sirens all night, loud yelling from the "campers" etc. Hotel just fine but not a peaceful sleep.

    This hotel is located in an EXTREMELY unsafe area. Security guards on every corner, people bent over from Fentanyl, homeless everywhere. I had to call 911 for a man bleeding heavily on the sidewalk. I saw this all during the day.

    Main bathrooms downstairs opens with a key card. But if someone is in there, it still opens with your key card! Someone opened while I was in there. They should rethink that setup

    The Hotel was clean however, we had a leaky shower, and the sink was gurgling, the food was super salty. We were woken up at 4 am by a couple arguing, a girl crying and slamming doors ! Then at 545 am by a barking dog on the apartment patio! We were 3 floors up. It doesn’t help the the hotel is next to an apartment building!

    The hotel was clean with very nice staff and a good breakfast. However the area surrounding the hotel was awful with drug use in sight and scary looking people surrounding us. Hotel staff advised us to not walk outside of hotel. Uber driver waited until we entered hotel until he left. Sad as the hotel staff were so nice and facility ver clean

    The room was very clean but I made a mistake when I booked it I thought it was a larger hot tub. It was just a spa with six jets. I arrived a little early and tried to check in the room was not ready at 2pm which is understandable. The desk clerk said that she would call me and let men know if the room became available earlier. I asked if it was possible to get the key ahead of time she said no. When we arrived at 315. The room was good to go but the next shift clerk explained everything about the property again even though i repeatedly told her that the previous clerk had already done so. We were in a hurry and didn’t want to be rude which made it awkward while she was going thru her spiel. If you suffer from acid reflux make sure you bring your meds. The sundry shop did have pepto available but at 8 dollars for six tablets it was kind of expensive and not as effective as other meds. When we made it to the room the housekeeper almost walked in on us naked while getting ready for an event. She did apologize and said that she thought the room had not been cleaned yet on her list. It was very awkward too because behind the door I was 100% in my b day suit. Not the best stay I’ve had at Holiday inn express.

    The rooms were clean, I think that's an >important priority. The property is in a safe place and the parking lot is spacious to fit a large vehicle, such as the one we drove in (fits 13 passengers). The accesz is controlled at night for extra security and the lobby has a coffee machine. The lobby gal Patricia was friendly, professional and highly thorough with her explanation on how to get around the hotel.

    The hotel staff at the front desk were very friendly and accommodating. The room is basic but looks newly renovated and clean. The lobby area was always clean and relatively quiet. The hotel is in a really sketchy neighborhood so beware. I stayed here for a conference and caught a short Lyft to the convention center daily. I would not walk outside the hotel. I walked two blocks to a store once and it was a scary experience.

    This hotel property is right smack dab in the middle of a massive homeless camp. The neighborhood is extremely sketchy, extremely filthy and smells of urine. The ground is littered with needles human waste and everything in between. NOT PET FRIENDLY, unless it’s a service animal and the “pool” is this size of your apt bathtub. We only picked this spot since it was close walking distance to the venue we had tickets to, completely unaware of the reality of the neighborhood. Lesson learned, do better research on where you’re staying. I will say that Patricia at the front desk was very kind and did her best to accommodate us, thank you! However I will never return.

    Overall the inside of the hotel was ok, however I will not stay here again with my kids. It’s the worst area to stay, specially if you’re traveling with kids. So many homeless and drug people right out side the hotel. The parking lot does not feel safe at all.

    Had to change room due to a moldy smell. The front staff was very attentive to the issue and it was solved immediately…. When you arrive on the third floor you can actually smell stuffy smell. The cleaners was there cleaning and scrubbing what I Would guess was a spill or something. One was actually sitting on the floor. The forth floor as you get off the elevator you can smell the change instantly not too stuffy and the room was clean… The air also

    Overpriced for the holiday season and located at a very disturbing location with homeless people around the property. You may even encounter few in the hotel lobby parking areas etc. be care full when drive of the property as they walk up as a surprise as you have less visibility when you drive out. Very unsafe to step out and walk out with kids and family as you may see hundreds of homeless who are high on substance and may also be approached asking for money cigarettes etc…..

Free parking was a huge plus and guard overnight which I appreciated because of the surrounding area was not the best. This stay was a nice little gem hidden in not the best area of LA, was in town for a concert at the BMO stadium which was easy to uber/lyft to from this location. Would stay again if needed just be aware the surrounding streets are not the best, but felt safe staying here.

A special shoutout to Mia (I believe that’s her name) — she had short hair with a splash of green, and her warm smile truly lit up the room. The hotel itself was very clean, and the maid service was attentive and always willing to help with anything we needed. Breakfast was delicious and a great way to start the day. Overall, a very pleasant experience. Highly recommend!

    This hotel was not located in a safe area. It was located in the slums of the city. The beds were not comfortable and the pillows were way too soft and too thin. We asked the staff for shower towels, and over an hour later, we received our towels. The bathroom was dirty and had beard hair in the sink. The breakfast was not appealing at all. We were truly disappointed in our stay.

    Liked almost everything about the hotel - pleasant staff, good warm breakfast options, opens 6:30 although the website showed 6 am- they accommodated us and opened 6:15 to grab food so we could make it on time for our son’s 7:15 am volleyball tournament check-in at the LA Convention Center. We really appreciated that! The only downside is the area outdoors did not feel safe with the many transients walking around the street. I’d recommend just driving your own vehicle in/out of the lot or Lyft/Uber/Taxi will also pick you up at the front door so you don’t have to walk out to the street. That said the hotel parking lot was still safe and also free-no cost which is unheard of in downtown LA!

    The property itself was great. The staff was so nice and welcoming. The room was very clean and the beds and pillows were so comfy. The breakfast needed to have a few more options in my opinion. And, unfortunately, the area surrounding the hotel was very dirty and unsafe. There were so many unhoused people living on the sidewalks right outside of the hotel. It also wasn't easy to find places to eat in the area.

    First, the good: the staff at this hotel were fantastic. Everyone I interacted with was warm, friendly, and helpful. The hotel itself was clean and generally adequate for a short stay. The room was comfortable, though we did notice the bathroom sink had a drainage issue—it would occasionally fill with water and make a loud sucking noise as it went down. However, the biggest and most concerning issue was the activity happening in the alley directly outside our window. At nearly all hours of the day and night, there were large groups of people (sometimes 20 or more) gathering in the alley. We witnessed drug use, physical fights, vandalism (including spray-painting walls), and people discarding trash and even needles in the alley. The noise and chaos made it extremely difficult to sleep, even with the windows closed. I've stayed in Los Angeles many times and am no stranger to the city, but this experience was by far the worst. It was honestly shocking to see how deteriorated the area has become, particularly right behind the hotel. While the hotel itself tried its best, the surrounding environment made the stay extremely uncomfortable and, at times, unsafe-feeling. I hope the hotel and city can find solutions to improve the safety and quality of the area. Until then, I’d recommend potential guests be aware.
