Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, with a nice remodel, but the location in Koreatown was not what I expected, with rough surroundings. The staff were incredibly friendly, but there were some issues with the AC. The dining options were so-so, similar to other hotels, but lacked some basics. Overall, it was a convenient stay but with some drawbacks to consider.
The hotel is situated in a good neighborhood, perfect for visiting Hollywood and Downtown LA with very convenient metro access. The staff had a mix of friendliness and unhelpfulness, and the dining options were limited but nice. However, the rooms were stuffy and small, lacking sufficient ventilation.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant one overall. The rooms were super modern and almost like brand new, providing a clean and comfortable space perfect for our short stay. The service was a bit of a mixed bag, with some staff being very welcoming and attentive, while others were not as accommodating when it came to fixing issues like the AC. The location, though not what I expected from the booking website, turned out to be pretty good despite the presence of homeless individuals. The dining experience was decent, with some basic options available, but the homemade sausages were a standout. Overall, the facilities met my needs during my stay.
The hotel rooms were quite spacious and clean, although the noise from the busy street outside could be distracting. The service was friendly and accommodating, with a slight delay due to system upgrades. The location was central, albeit with some street disturbances. The dining options were average, lacking some basic items. The facilities were generally good.
