Nightmare. I checked in then at 11:30 a strange man entered my room. Then a security guard and on my last night, the same thing happened.
No one at the hotel takes responsibility when thing go wrong
Everything was good except for parking and the street noise was outrageous in our room!
We should have asked to move but my husband was too tired to move all our stuff. Parking garage was full so we parked on the street then we were afraid to move our car because there was no where to park.
The staff were very nice, accommodating which made our stay wonderful!
Only reason I gave 3 stars to the property is there was no phone, tv was wall-mounted if you are in bunk bed there is no tv option. Good room if you have kids but the stairs are very slippery with socks on
Staff were excellent 10/10
My only complaint is the water pressure is quite weak.
Location is great for West LA.

It was fine. The AC was noisy in the room. I wish there were complimentary water bottles in the fridge at least. They had a nice looking rec room in the lobby but the lights were off in that area and it didn't look accessible, so I didn't ask to use it.
