Location.
Location, very close to bars/restaurants on Sunset strip. Hollywood walkable.
Freshly painted room not to close to road so was quiet at night. Shower ok, bathroom clean. Overall on par with the price we paid.
Jim Morrison room. Kumquats in the parking area. all reviews »
Only cheap hotel near sunset strip.
Good for location.
The location.
Location.
Run-down, bare-bones, talking and smoking outside window after bars close.
television does not carry business channels, such as Bloomberg, CNBC or FOX.
They didn't offer an alarm clock in the room, no cable TV, no iron/board.
Ancient air conditioning unit.
TV had no remote and buttons on TV didn't work.
Very poor security - we kept our valuables locked in our car.
Stayed 2 nights and room not serviced whilst we were there. No tea/coffee making facilities and not provided by motel.
Really a run down bare-bones place.
Total dump. One of the worst motels I've ever stayed at. Only consider if you have to be near the strip.
Security
Clean.
The mold in the shower, the unfriendly and difficult to understand staff, Internet did not work, had to ask for linens, no curtain on th bathroom window, water barely flowed out of the shower head, no phone in room to call the front desk.
Nothing at all like it's website. There is NO wi-fi. In fact, there is not even a telephone in the room. No showerhead on the end of plumbing, a light that could not be turned off with the pull cord. In short, shop around, there were better hotels/locations and prices than what we paid for this. Would not recommend it.
It was horrible there. The whole room smells like the toilet. The staff (expect of the Lady which cleaned the room) was really unfriendly and only looking after our money. We have to Pay $10 extra for parking!.
