Bello esteticamente ma da evitare

Struttura bella ma vecchia e ciò comporta dei problemi di rumore. Premetto che è colpa mia perché avrei potuto chiedere di cambiare camera ma è assurdo mettere due persone che devono stare 5 giorni in una camera vicino all'ascensore che fa un rumore particolare e la stessa camera è adiacente alle scale. La camera in questione è la 201 (da evitare), anche perché ci sono i soliti personaggi affetti da acatisia e si sente tutto perché ovviamente camminano scalzi. Sicuramente sarà economico ma a questo punto meglio spendere qualcosa in più. Questa è stata la quarta volta a Los Angeles e siamo sicuri che in questa struttura non torneremo per una quinta volta in città.

i loved staying here, the front desk staff were so lovely and available 24/7 for any questions i had about getting around or recommendations for things to do for my first time in Los Angeles. it's super central so it was a breeze to get anywhere either on transit, Ubers or even just wandering. the rooms were clean and the perfect size, A/C was wonderful and the little fridge in the room for all my goodies was SO convenient. would definitely stay here again and recommend to friends visiting LA! 💛💛

It is a historic hotel, beautiful and rooms are comfortable. Plugs for electronics are not plentiful or easily accessible, that is just a minor inconvenience. Staff friendly and helpful. Sweet shop for coffee and a breakfast sandwich was perfect the onsite restaurant and bar was excellent. Parking staff made sure there were spots available. Restaurant seems to be a favorite with the locals

Nice, historic property on Melrose Avenue. Close to a lot of things. The room was fine: clean with a firm, large bed. Bathroom was a bit tiny, but clean. Hallways were clean. Bakery on northwest corner of the building had very good sweets and coffee. Did not have time to try the restaurant, but the menu looked very good and lots of patrons.

Comfy

Good location off the beaten path for a night to stay. Didn’t plan on doing anything in that immediate area so was looking for clean affordable and safe and this checked all the boxes. I would stay here again without hesitation.

weekend get away

A quaint boutique hotel. Friendly staff and great service. Loved the outdoor seating area for breakfast. Our room faced the back, overlooking the outdoor seating which was also part of the restaurant/bar which played outdoor music til late. It was ok for the weekend, but not so great when we had to get up early for our flight on Tuesday. Otherwise a great place to stay.

Decent for the price!

Cute historic building, small but cozy room. Surprisingly quiet, especially for the location. The mattress was a little sagging and lumpy, but not terribly uncomfortable. Excellent water pressure in the shower. The parking lot is small and tight spaces. Would definitely stay here again.
