“The hotel has an appealing Art Deco design and is positioned well for trips to Universal Studios, although street noise and thin windows may affect some guests; the diner and bar offer convenient on-site options. I think its location provides an ideal base for exploring both Hollywood attractions and nearby areas. It's a reasonable choice, especially for visitors focused on location and budget.”

Adequate Stay, Some Issues
mandatory valetrude service
The valet parking felt mandatory. I was forced to pay nearly $40. I thought the front desk person was following a script and didn't listen well to my concerns, that was frustrating. The guy outside was yelling at my son too. I'm not sure I would return because of the parking situation and rude service.

stellar stay near the studios
comfy bedsfriendly staffexcellent brunchclogged shower
i enjoyed the queen room with two queen beds. the room featured a fridge, kettle, microwave, and coffee maker. the beds were comfy. i found the staff to be super friendly, and the welcome on arrival was warm. clark street diner provides excellent brunch options and is iconic.
I noticed no daily cleaning. extra towels needed collection at reception. the shower base was clogged and holding water like a pool. i also didn't like that the hotel uses two different names. It is confusing.
Location

this location is convenient as universal studios and studio city are a quick ten-minute drive away. you can easily walk to hollywood boulevard, with many bars and shops nearby. there is also a dash bus stop close by that takes you to the griffith observatory.

The location was very good. It is close to many things. I love the Hollywood vibe. Lots of pictures of Hollywood stars cover all the stairs. It makes it interesting.
I thought cleanliness needed improvement. Everything is a bit smelly. The windows especially need a deep clean. It felt very superficial.
