We are writing to express our deep disappointment with the quality of our recent stay at your hotel. During our entire 3-day visit, there was no access to hot water, which made our stay extremely uncomfortable—especially given the cold weather and the fact that we were traveling with our two young daughters. This issue significantly impacted our limited time in Los Angeles and turned what should have been an enjoyable trip into a very unpleasant experience.

My stay was pretty good outside the fact that they gave us a room that smelled like smoke . Manager offered to switch room the next day and gave us a few dollars off parking . Plenty food options nearby and public transportation as well. I think we would stay here again .

Disappointed

The hotel did not tell us that you have to reserve parking ahead of time, so we had to park on the street. We did not get a greeting from the clerk when we arrived. People walking around in PJ's, talking loudly, kind of ghetto.

No hot water for 2 days.

No hot water for 2 days. AC making a weird noise 24/7 requiring earplugs to sleep. Room smelled musky. Safe in room inoperable. Stains on carpet in room and in common areas hallway. This is all too bad because the staff was nice and the location is great.

The front desk was very nice. The hotel seem neat and clean. There was never any hot water on any day that we stay there. They said the hot water heater broke and it would be fixed in an hour two days later still not fixed. It was very disappointing.
