For what it is -- Sparse, clean, safe, inexpensive

If you want gleaming marble and chrome and a dining room and a big lobby for socializing, this ain’t your place. It feels like (probably is) a 1950’s-1960’s L.A. motel. No dining room. Small lobby. No coffee in the room. But the neighborhood is safe (more residential and not jumpin’ with restaurants but that’s okay) and very convenient to both downtown and the various museums, attractions and neighborhoods on the western part of the city. Wilshire is a major street that goes from the coast to downtown, lots of buses to downtown and to the western neighborhoods, (West LA/Beverly Hills, the coast, etc.) and there is a train station about ten minutes walk away to downtown. I found it easy to get around without a car or calling Uber/Lyft much. And it is very clean. That is very important to me. The room was fine, not cramped, recently remodeled, bathroom fine. Overall, if you are not traveling with a family and planning to hang around a lot in the motel, this place is excellent for sleeping and getting around. It is a hotel – not like a skimpy hostel. And the room was clean and the bed was fine. And less than $100/night. So if this is the kind of place you are looking for (I was) it earns a full five stars from me.

Clean room and building. Staff is nice. Inconvenient for restaurants- shopping if you are not driving. There is a bus to go to a store. No coffee pot in room. Was given an outdated hot water boiling pot that had water mineral deposits in it.white dust. They need a small coffee pot and hot paper cups in the rooms. They do have microwaves but it is downstairs outside by the pool area.

Stay Again

We had a short one night stay and I would stay again. It was clean and comfortable. The fridge did not work and no microwave. I did not need them, so no issue. There is no coffee provided in the room or lobby. I did not think it would be an issue but there is none close by either. Next time I will bring my pot! They also had a secure parking lot.

Always my go-to place in LA

One of the few good, affordable places left in LA. Clean, safe, free parking (!!!), friendly staff. If all you need is a safe, clean place to rest and wash up, this is the perfect place. Cleaner than many of the upscale places I stayed on this same trip.

The pool could not be used- very unclean. The common areas were all very dirty. Lift always dirty. No hot water anywhere available. Vending out of order. Just not thought about well. No directory or info offered by anyone.

This is a classic motel, like in Memento, or countless other movies. The room was clean and well kept. The staff are friendly and responsive. And the price is excellent for the location. We had two issues. First, the beds were very hard. Some people like this, but we had to sleep on top of extra blankets. The other issue is that the A/C (actually heat in our case, but it’s a single unit), even though it appeared to be relatively new, rattled loudly enough that we were not able to keep it on. This wasn’t a big enough deal to fuss about - we didn’t need it much, and I’ve been in much better hotels where the A/C/heat had issue, including being loud, but it’s something the hotel may want to look into. Also, heads up that the elevator is small and old, the door actually got stuck partly open/closed a couple times. Again, not a huge issue - it’s only a 3 story place, so you don’t have to wait long, and it doesn’t seem like a safety issue - but something they may want to look at repairing.
