This hotel has a fantastic location, making it easy to get to popular attractions and the Hollywood area. The rooms are spacious and well-kept, but some amenities seemed to fall short. I really appreciated the cleanliness and comfort of my accommodations, though the food options for breakfast were somewhat lacking. Overall, it was a decent stay for the price, but a few improvements in the dining area would make it a much better experience.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which has a lovely pool area and offers a great mix of modern amenities. The rooms were spacious and clean, making my stay comfortable overall. I found the service to be decent, but a bit slow at times. While the hotel is conveniently located near several attractions, it's worth noting that parking does come with an added fee.

This hotel is a gem with its modern and spacious rooms that make you feel right at home. The staff really went above and beyond, reflecting a genuine desire to help. On the downside, while the dining options were good, the breakfast could have offered a bit more variety. The amenities, including the pool, added to the overall experience, but I wish the Wi-Fi was complimentary rather than an added fee.
