let's just say when i entered my room, the window was open and they had a window air unit. The lobby smelled like a mix between aftershave and an old casino's carpet cleaner. It made me nauseous. I was also hoping for an early check-in but they said it would cost $75. I asked for them to hold my bags and they could only hold one. I'm glad i only needed to stay for 1 night.

The stay was very clean and the staff were very nice! Parking was behind the building which had a gate, and was very safe. The shower was hard to work and it was either super hot or super cold, but the whole bathroom was super clean. Definitely would stay again since it was very close to a lot of stuff to do LA

Breakfast was at the Coffee bar by the hotel. The hotel bar and restaurant was very good. It would have been nice to have a chair in addition to the desk chair to sit down. Also, the closet was not suitable for hanging a dress. There was a shelf in the middle.
