First I can hear every car driving on Santa Monica Blvd literally all night. The glass windows are useless. Can’t sleep well.
Second this hotel uses passcode for door entrance. I was locked out of my room three times a night, hate it when I had to go down 6 times to figure out how to get into my own room. The front desk guy (the young guy with curly hair) was nice and helpful but still this shouldn’t be an issue at first place.
The while older reception guy was not very welcoming.
Wonderful to find a new, well-equipped hotel in such a central location. Exceptionally quiet & effective a/c (a true mini split with a real thermostat, not the typical hotel unit). Onsite parking is limited but fantastic if you get it.
Room is all right, basically clean and neat. Just a little moisture even with the a/c on. You cannot do anything with the a/c thou. I had to turn off the a/c by the main switch on the wall. A/c actually a little bit noise to me and it’s blowing straight to my head which I do not like. But it is very personal, I know some ppl don’t care. They have their own garage and fee is fair. The only thing is the ground got the front of our car every time we go in and out. We drove a Camry. Staffs are nice and friendly. Location is quiet.

Location is very distinguishable by color and design . All esthetic really over the top.
I liked the place. The property was recently renovated and still very clean. The staff there were nice as well. There were security guards around, so I didn’t need to worry about safety, which was really important to me. It was a bit noisy due to the air conditioning, the street outside, and people walking around, but that wasn’t a major issue for me.
The hotel itself is great. The rooms are clean and the staff is friendly. It's just in a dirty neighborhood. Like any major city on the west coast. There were a lot of homeless and open air drug use in the surrounding area of the hotel. But even with all that. I would stay here again.
