The hotel was clean and well-located near good dining, although noise from emergency vehicles was a bit disruptive. Breakfast could use improvement, but the friendly staff went above and beyond when I needed help. Overall, a decent experience albeit with some minor inconveniences.

Great Value and Comfort for Solo Travelers
I enjoyed my stay with a clean and cozy room that shielded me from street noise. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, especially with local dining recommendations. Don't skip Scolomo's for dinner, but check out nearby eateries for a better bang for your buck!

The room was spacious and clean, with comfortable beds. The free parking was a huge plus, making it easy for us to explore the area. The breakfast had a nice selection, and we especially appreciated the friendly staff who were always ready to help us.
The hotel is a bit noisy due to nearby sirens.

Had an awesome trip with friends! We visited Venice Beach and Hollywood, which was super convenient. The staff was friendly and always helped us out. The continental breakfast was decent, though it could have used more seating. The free parking is a plus, and overall, it's a solid spot to stay.
The shared patio felt a bit uncomfortable since people could walk by our room anytime. It took away from my sense of privacy.

The room was spacious and comfortable, with a clean vibe that made relaxing easy. The mattresses were seriously cozy, ensuring a good night's sleep. However, I did wish there was a kettle to make hot water. All in all, it felt like a nice place to unwind after a long day.

The hotel had a clean, quiet environment, perfect for relaxing after a busy day exploring. The under-building parking was super convenient, and the fast check-in made things easy. One standout moment was when my husband and I arrived late, and our keys were ready without any hassles.

I had a lovely stay for 2 nights, enjoying the clean and spacious room while watching the sunset from the sun terrace. The lobby's cozy seating area was perfect for relaxing after a long day. However, the lack of USB outlets made charging a bit of a hassle, but I'll definitely recommend this place to friends! 🌇
